It was slightly further off the path than i thought. This is not something the owner can change. The owner is very honest about where they are located... It is just after a very long day the extra 1.5 miles to go felt longer.

The bunkhouse was great. The honesty freezer was brilliant qnd just what i needed. Very much enjoyed my jacket potato and beans after a very long day. Easy to access, clean, and bed v comfortable. Pub next door v friendly and the shop aboht a mile in has a decent selection of stuff if you need supplies.

Whilst not an issue for me as had place to myself, kitchen/social area is very small for the number of beds in the place.

Perfect position for anyone doing Route 72 as it’s on the route. Loved the fact there was a shed for bikes. There is a pub next door which I didn’t use as bought some food in Hexham. There is food in the freezer if you get stuck and items suitable for breakfast with an honesty box. Appreciated being able to make a coffee.

Only a small top window opened a fraction in both the upstairs bunkrooms, although fans provided, it would have got quite fuggy if all beds occupied.

Very clean, excellant value- even got a small discount for booking direct. The best thing was the availability of food?drink basics, inc fresh milk & other meal basics - inc frozen options, paid for via an honesty box. On road parking. I ate @ the Red Lion.. Food very tasty BUT a tad expensive for what is basically a "village pub". also landlady a little "sharp"!.. Perhaps try The Boat next time I'm in the area. I had a minor hiccup with my car the day of leaving & the staff were extremley helpful in getting me sorted.

One of the showers wasn't working properly, but they were calling the electrician.

Bunkhouse was spotless. Instructions were clear. Kitchen, although small, provided everything we needed. Ideal for an overnight stay on the 72 Cycle Route.

Given that ours was a quick one night stayover, i can't think of anything that we didn't like

No problems gaining access as Nick was there to greet us. He, was particularly helpful & extremely pleasant. Tea & coffee was a bonus & the food supply which would have been very well received had we not previously arranged to eat out. Instructions for towels and used were clear & precise. Nick was also extremely helpful in arranging the pickup of one of the groups laptop which had been left behind All in all, a very pleasant stay

Lovely little place!! Ended up having the whole dorm to myself! Lots of thoughtful touches that made it a great stay

No lockers

This is such an easy place to stay. No fuss, just basic, spotlessly clean bunk beds. I always stay out of season so no idea what it is like in high season.

Excellent. It was cheap. Kitchen was small but well equipped. Better than an apartment I recently stayed in which cost alot more money. Loved the fact they provided snacks/meals at a small charge. I however had food and walked to the shop which is also well supplied. The pub was unfortunately not serving food due to a wedding party. Very easy instructions on getting in. Will definitely stay again. I had the room to myself which had 3 bunks.

The place looks newly refurbished, modern clean bathroom, comfy beds, kitchen with all amenities. The village is charming, surrounded by fields and forests. Good connection with the closest towns by bus, and close to the walking path along the river South Tyne.

Very quiet place, but its perfect if you are visiting Hadrian's wall and the Roman forts around the area. I loved it! Very peaceful!

we were the only people in the bunkhouse. it was so good to have frozen food in the freezer and tea ,coffee and other staples with an honesty payment box. we would have been very hungry if not as the pub was closed on Mondays.
