Nice b n b in a brilliant location... Hadrian's Wall literally runs by the b n b, so no long walks off the Trail at the end of the day [yippee! Can I give 6 stars for the location?!]. I got a warm welcome from the 2 dogs and the hosts themselves! My room had a well equipped shower/wet room,... More

Located right on Hadrian's Wall path. One of the friendliest places we stayed on our 5 day walk. The owners and family were most welcoming and helpful, especially to the one member of our group not walking but relying on public transport. What a treat to find handmade soap and fizzy mint bath salts for sore, weary feet! Rooms were... More

Friendly, spotlessly clean, excellent food and nothing was too much trouble for the hosts. A terrific family atmosphere. Located right on the Hadrian's Wall path - the front of the property is on the trail. Can't commend this highly enough

A perfect place to stay as you walk Hadrian's wall. Our twin room was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed. The underfloor heating cheered our aching feet no end. The breakfast was delicious. The owners and their family were very friendly, welcoming and helpful. We would definitely stay here again- it is fantastic.

We'd marched along the wall route all day, getting soaked more than once, so it was great to arrive at beautifully decorated rooms with underfloor heating, no less. Great food, with wine and beer available. And it's right on the wall. If you're coming from the Birdoswald direction, go down the hill after, across the river, up the steps by... More

If I was able to just write a one word review I would, that one word would be Fantastic. We arrived and were greeted by the owner and their dogs, we were shown to our room which was just across the farmyard. Very impressed by the barn conversion, underfloor heating, wet room, comfy bed, homemade soap and shortbread. Very nice... More

It takes a special combination of factors for me to recommend somewhere to stay: great location, tasteful decor, friendly hosts, and thoughtful touches; Willowford has them all. Liam and Lauren are great hosts. Both breakfast and evening meals were wonderful. They even provide 'proper' milk (not those nasty UHT things) to put in your tea. This place is run with... More
