Excellent place to stay after a long walk. Lovely suite with comfy sitting room & good shower. Very good dinner and breakfast menus. Welcome & comfortable.

Stayed at this hotel whilst walking St Cuthbert's Way: a group of six of us arrived very wet and muddy and were warmly welcomed, even though in theory we were too early to check in! We were shown to our rooms, after removing our boots,...and then welcomed into the bar where there was a very welcome fire. We decided to forego our packed lunches and had lunch and dinner later: the food and service were both excellent and the rooms warm and comfortable. The couple running the hotel are doing a great job, and their staff were all friendly and helpful. I would absolutely recommend, and would love to stay there again.More

A welcoming place after a long wet day walking St Cuthbert’s way and I understand also the end of the Pennine Way. Super cosy and the back room looks like it’s out of a David Lynch film - we enjoyed the quirkiness, the darts and...the reasonably priced drinks. Friendly staff. We didn’t eat but the food we saw coming out of the kitchen looked good.More

Great location, dog friendly, good pint. However, on this occasion bar staff were distracted and inattentive. We're giving diners priority over those just having a drink, regardless of who arrived first. Shame!

An extremely disappointing welcome for me here I'm afraid to say, after my 15 day Pennine walk, I arrived around 7pm and was told no food available without a table booking! Really! So I had to walk out and find refuge elsewhere. Doesn't really pair...with the description on their website!! Could do a lot, lot betterMore

Stopped for a break on a cycle trip. Ordered a beer and hot dog. Food arrived, no onions, garnish nor anything else. £ 5.50. Won't be going back for any reason. Pathetic.

Went for a lovely break the welcome on arrival was first class all the staff were lovely we had a small problem the first night but this was soon addressed to our satisfaction. The food was very good as was the service in the restaurants...The hotel bedroom was clean and comfortable but the whole Hotel needs updating come on owners you can do better. Would I stay there again most certainly solely because of the lovely staff nothing was too much trouble for them..More

Excellent meal and lovely pint dropped in mid week when it was quiet it has a small bar but ample dining area

The food was variable. Culleen Skink was really good, main course fish and chips was disappointing. Comfortable atmosphere and friendly service.

The old adage " if you don't need to try hard - you don't". Based at the end of the Pennie Way there is a given amount of business guaranteed. This is a very very average pub, thats just about acceptable, if you're happy to...settle for mediocre with a capital M then this is for you.. good luck.More

Dropped in on a whim on a Sunday evening. They were basically full I think but happy to squeeze us in. It's pub food done very well - filling and delicious. The service was prompt, efficient and friendly. A hidden gem at the end (or...start) of The Pennine Way. Well worth a detour.More

Staying in the village and decided to have dinner in the hotel. Very friendly and relaxed staff. I chose Cullen skink starter which came with a large warm roll. The had pasta main. Others enjoyed lamb shank, steak pie and scampi. Generous portion of ice...cream for one of our party. Recommend this place for dinner in the area.More
