A great quality stay.

We had a great time - the hosts made us feel very welcome. We requested a pack lunch which was delivered with our breakfast hamper. Extreamly good value for money and a comfortable stay in a lovely room.

The rooms have been refurbished and are nicely finished, in a contemporary style with a good sized ensuite. The staff couldn't have been any more helpful. The breakfast is continental, served to your room in a basket and very nice (no option for a cooked breakfast though). Bellingham is a lovely village, lots of history and with an excellent heritage centre, a good selection of local shops, pubs and places to eat, with beautiful walks.

Very friendly welcome from Kayleigh who was very kind and helpful. She served an excellent breakfast too. The only negative was the towels and bedding. They felt below standard due to age.

Wasn’t worth £100 for the night. The room was nice and they did have complementary tea and coffee but the price of the room doesn’t include any breakfast. I read like some similar reviews that I had seen on the booking that it did. The bar/restaurant attached does nice food but the atmosphere may not to be everyone’s cup of tea. Locals had control of the music and it was very 90’s clubland. I would stay again but only if they reduced the price.

A rural gem with some life about it!

A characterful village inn hotel, recently refurbished by the owners. Very friendly, relaxed welcome and service from Kayleigh & Marcus and all their staff. Room had a lovely view through the village and towards the hillside. Well appointed and very tastefully decorated ensuite room too. The bar itself is busy with a good selection and found everyone to be very friendly both in the bar and in general around the village, no-one passes you without saying "good morning". In short, very enjoyable stay and look forward to returning in the future

They were short of staff but very nice the two we met. Very convenient for our stay and Bellingham was a great place, plenty of pubs, cafes etc and a lovely walk to Hareshaw Linn. Our room was comfortable with an excellent shower room but problems occurred with the tv which took a long time to solve.

Newly refurbished room

Newly refurbished room above a village pub. Comfortable and clean, everything we needed for a single night stay. We were staying here before visiting Kielder Forest the next day. It's about 10 miles or so to Kielder from here. Bellingham is a small village, but has a few pubs, cafes and shops. Easy to check in at the pub.

A real gem.

This is a very nice place to stay. Everyone was pleasant, room was nice and clean and food was very good except for my lamb stew which totally bland. It is called a country kitchen, so maybe that's the way the country folks like their lamb stew? I would definitely go back again and recommend it to anyone.
