Great first stay at the Joiners Arms. We took our dog and they had a bed, ball, bowls and treats in our room. Sunday lunch was amazing as ever, service prompt, extra gravy not a problem. Couldn't fault breakfast, really impressive and the check-in/check-out was easy. Would highly recommend.

Very unwelcoming on arrival , quite rude actually. Castle view cottage is actually just a run down cold bungalow. The electric Shower is absolutely pathetic . Beds fairly comfortable, but had to sleep fully clothed as the property despite having electric heaters is really cold. We had an evening meal which was average at best and expensive for the quality. The bill comes pre loaded with a hefty service charge , a joke really as the service was poor. Better option is to go into bamburgh and eat at the potted lobster (thank me later) real quality food and service. Only positive for us was a surprisingly decent breakfast which we all enjoyed . Definitely not a 5 star experience, far from it.
