The Blacksmiths Arms

"A lovely typical country pub. Very quiet at night; a good choice of food on their reasonably priced dinner menu; friendly, helpful staff. The room was clean, serviced daily with a fairly roomy ensure."

Farlam Hall Hotel & Restaurant

"Incredible experience from booking to leaving. The communication and service from the team is out of this world and 5 star service from the outset. Beautiful hotel with glorious garden surroundings. Breakfast served by a Michelin star chef just increased the level of perfection! Bravo Farlam Hall."

String of Horses

Blenkinsopp Castle Inn

"Lovely food, definitely pre-book. We had a call to ask ahead of our arrival which was appreciated. The food, drinks and ambience with other travellers made the stay. Without that it would have been 3 stars. The main negative was the poor bathroom, shower was very much a trickle, the tap was so powerful it was very noisy. Could do with sealant replacing and wooden floor next to an open shower was always going to lead to water damage!"

The Howard Arms

"Good food. especially the steak pie. Good, friendly service. Nice decor. Easy to park outside. Spotlessly clean. Nice Market town"

Scotch Arms Mews Bed & Breakfast, Brampton Town Centre, Hadrians Wall

"As part of our cycle holiday along Hadrian’s Wall we stayed for one night in this beautiful bed and breakfast. We were warmly greeted by Dianne the owner who showed us the facility where we could store are bikes and recharge them. The building is really interesting with many of the original features kept yet it has a lovely warm feeling helped by the log burner which was very welcome after a cold day. Our room was spacious and bed very comfy. Breakfast the next morning was delicious, varied and plentiful. We loved our stay very much. Dianne was an exceptional host who had thought of everything. Highly recommend."
