Very nearly 10/10

Very clean room, lovely well kept pub run by excellent staff. If I could offer any advice to the owners it would be; a shelf in the shower for bottles, and make it perfectly clear that evening meals are not available. It's a bit ambiguous in the property description. Other than that, all good. The breakfast is fantastic, and excellent value.

Room was clean however there were some areas that needed repairs to be finished. The door to the room was a front door with glass panels that let a lot of light in and were difficult to cover over. Also the tv lost it's connection so couldn't watch any programmes.

Lovely Traditional Country Pub

Lovely country pub in good location for local tourist sites with friendly and attentive staff. Stayed for one night whilst visiting Beamish Living Museum, nice room, friendly bar downstairs and full cooked breakfast available in the morning. Will be happy to return and would recommend to others.

Unclean

Not a nice experience, toilet was filthy and the shower had not been cleaned and the bed linen had black bits on it, told the owner about it, he couldn't get me another room, so it had to be cleaned but I couldn't get the thought out of my head

Good value, comfortable and very clean.

Nice local pub, everyone was friendly. Room was nice and clean but could do with some cosmetic upgrades e.g mirror had 3 cracks. Bed was lovely and comfortable but I would have preferred if it had mattress and pillow protectors. Breakfast was £7.50 - cereals, fruit juice, cooked breakfast and toast. The poached eggs were spot on.
