Pros:

My goodness this was such a friendly and comfortable, charming place to stay! The owners could not have gone more out of their way to be welcoming and the bed was super comfortable. The village is charming and equidistant between walking in the Cheviot hills and visiting all the beautiful beaches and castles on the coast and at Alnwick. The food was good too and the breakfast was sublime! We were able to bring our dogs with us for no extra charge and they were welcomed as well.

Cons:

Absolutely no complaints - it was great!

Perfect break away in a very comfortable hotel.
Pros:

Breakfast was superb. Dinner was also very good, substantial portions well cooked and presented, the menu was not as extensive as I remember from 5 years ago, but Sunday lunch was the best I have had. Location quiet but easy to travel to places of interest, staff very helpful.

Cons:

Nothing I can think of
