Description

Our bed and breakfast accommodation, located on the border of Cumbria and Northumberland, overlooks the longest unbroken stretch of Hadrian's Wall. We offer a peaceful getaway spot and an ideal gateway to the many places of interest in this area including many Roman historical sites.

Our two south-facing twin rooms are comfortable, light and spacious, with spectacular views. We have a third room facing the ravine to the north.

As a family-run business in a rural community, we aim to run our bed and breakfast accommodation in an environmentally friendly way, thereby promoting sustainable tourism. We are currently working towards some of the initiatives promoted by the Green Tourism Business Scheme. This includes everyday energy reduction and the encouragement of local wildlife.

We purchase local produce, where possible, to support the region’s farmers, as this in turn maintains the agricultural character of the area and improves our environment. Local products generally include Cumberland sausages, bacon, free-range farm eggs, honey and fruit preserves.

We have a beautiful pet owl called Hoot in an aviary in our garden who has proved very popular attraction with guests.
