We had a midweek lunch. The food was very well prepared and tasted lovely. Great pub with a professional manager doing an induction whilst we there. Very professional. Worth a visit. I highly recommend.

Stayed for one night whilst visiting friends. The owners are undertaking refurbishment work to the accommodation and our room which could sleep 3, was really nice and well thought out, with plenty of good lighting including soft lighting, tea/coffee tray, hairdryer, wardrobe and a lovely bathroom with a nice large shower complete with body wash?.. also nice little touches of homeliness like face cloths, handwash & hand lotion that you don?t always get even in larger hotels.
After checking in we popped into the bar for lunch & both decided on the cheese & bacon loaded fries, lovely large bowls of hot comfort food arrived quite quickly & the portion was rather generous, needless to say both bowls were emptied?. and for breakfast we opted for a bacon & sausage bun, freshly cooked and really tasty, made from meats produced from the family farm, so for those looking for food locally sourced this ticks the box for field to fork.
The owners & staff are lovely and welcoming. The bar/dining area has a farmhouse kind of style to it and off to one side is a pool room, and for those visiting with 4-legged friends they are dog friendly too.
It is a small family run hotel located in the heart of the busy village of Bellingham which is located within the Northumberland International Dark Sky Park and is a good location for visiting Kielder Forest and the surrounding areas.
Personally for us, we would certainly be more than happy to enjoy the hospitality if the occasion arises again in the future.

We called in here for dinner without a booking and it was fully booked on a Monday! The very friendly barman managed to squeeze us and our dogs in at short notice. Nothing was too much trouble even though he was run off his feet. Didn't get his name, but he had a skeletour t-shirt on. I think that's what it said. Dinner was lovely, steak pie and aubergine parmigiana. Worth a visit even if its just for a drink.

When myself and my partner first arrived the place was packed and there was only one staff member working, we had a table booked for 2 for our evening meal. I have worked as a duty manager previously and the young lady behine the bar did an absolute fantastic job making sure customers were happy. From the bar she was then serving in the dining area and taking food orders, an amazing staff member who went above and beyond even though on her own on a very extremely busy Friday evening. I think her name was Charlotte, you did fantastic and we had a brilliant evening. Thank you to the kitchen staff as well for our amazing meal.

The best bangers and mash in the whole world, like I?ve been to a lot of pubs around Kielder and Bellingham, this is the best one I?ve had, sounds silly but come here for bangers and mash. Service was amazing also ??????????

This country come village Public House is one to put in your little black book, I cannot recommend it more. We spent a week there and will totally return back as soon as we can.
The food is just magical and so tasty, the rooms are clean tidy and refreshed daily. The breakfast was too big for me, so went to the bacon and egg sandwich with fresh coffee and orange juice.
As this place is so central to al the big locations in Northumberland it is just a magical place and location. To the staff I will say thankyou so very much for looking after us, your help and local knowledge was inspiring.
