The Grey Bull B&B was a very nice surprise. The room was more modern than the pictures on hotels.com suggest. I was expecting something more dated or old fashioned but I was presently surprised. The double room was small, but comfortable and well designed. They ask that you do not eat in your room, but they have a large kitchen/diner for you to use their cutlery and plates. They would even wash up for you! It is perfectly located for Hadrian's wall and Haltwhislte itself was beautiful and had all the necessary amenities. There were also a lot of nice touches, such as a refrigerator with fresh milk for your tea and coffee, a basket of needed bathroom supplies, including plasters! I rarely re-visit places but I will certainly come back here.

Unfortunately I cannot see what you have said, but clearly you did not like our B&B, which is a great pity as we normally get excellent reviews and top marks. If there is anything particular you would like to bring to our attention, please let us know so we can take the necessary action required. Many thanks and kind regards - Gary & Kathryn

Handy for Hadrian's Wall
One night stay while walked walking Hadrian's Wall. Freshly cooked breakfast to keep us going. Owners very helpful. Haltwhistle a lovely little town and well worth a visit. Plenty to do locally, even if you're not into walking. I

Good value for money and friendly
Nice little find. A bit run down (old) but clean and comfortable. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Comes with a lovely breakfast. Was offered a cup of coffee while we were checking in!
Response from Gary on 16 May 2018
Many thanks for your comments, we are a little surprised at your mentioning a bit run down as we have invested over £60,000 in the last 18 months on re-furbishment, and the bedroom you were in was completely re-furnished with everything new in November 2017.

Nice B & B in quaint town
We needed a place to stay so we could hike Hadrians Wall. The Grey Bull was an ideal place to stay in Haltwhistle. Host was very helpful and I recommend it.
