船錨旅館(The Anchor Inn)

Had two lovely nights in the Anchor Inn. The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful, the room we had (Hadrian) was a great size, very comfortable, and there was a relaxed atmosphere throughout. The food in the restaurant was just fantastic. As good a fish and chips and rib-eye steak as I've ever had, and the blue cheese sauce was without doubt the best I've ever had. Be warned, portions are beyond generous - you won't need a starter! Despite being there on a Monday and Tuesday the restaurant was very busy so it is evidently a place to go. It is a little off the beaten path, but that is part of the charm, and is is ideally situated if you want to visit Hadrian's Wall, Vindolanda, Hexham etc, or Newcastle.

Very friendly staff, and the food here is very good as well, huge menu options with top quality!

Lovely Room well appointed. Great evening food and breakfast was spot on.

A lovely country inn. Room was clean cosy and comfortable and the bed was really comfy. The only issue was the room faced the road outside and was a bit noisy with people leaving the pub and farm traffic in the early morning. Food was great staff friendly and helpful. Would definitely stay again.

Fantastic place, the hosts are remarkable people in making this such a great experience. Food is as you would expect in a great county pub, room really comfortably and the wife loved the big fluffy bathrobes. 100% recommended if you wish a traditional county pub in a semi rural location. Excellent road connections just minutes away.

Friendly host, good pub food, spacious room and comfy bed. Bathroom fittings were a little tired and grubby.

Beautiful rural location. Lovely clean room and very comfy bed. Plenty of tea & coffee etc plus bottled water which is nice. Very large restaurant. We ate in the restaurant and the food was gorgeous, I had the lamb & mint hotpot pie, I can highly recommend it, it was the best pie I have ever tasted, and breakfast was just as good next morning. Very friendly staff. Would definitely stay again.

Great room, great pub and eatery, made to feel very welcome by Gavin the landlord and a great breakfast, will definitely book again if in the area.

Lovely stay can’t wait to come back , so relaxing x
