Guest Reviews

• Turley (8/5): -
• Steven (10/5): -
• Annet (8/5): - Leuk personeel. Gezellige sfeer.
• Oliver (10/5): -
• Brian (10/5): The Bowes Hotel is doing everything right! - The staff are very welcoming and the rooms very comfortable. We were lucky to be there on a Thai food night which made a welcome change to recent meals in other pubs. And the owner will give you a lift back to the Wall in the morning!
• FRANCISCO JAVIER (10/5): - L,habitació suite gran i preciosa. Tracte amable. Esmorzar fabulós
• Tina (10/5): Super - A delightful place to stay for a holiday in the area, a great location with so many interesting places to explore nearby and a warm welcome and good supper at the pub. Exceptionally nice staff too, thank you for a great break.
• Dirk (10/5): Fijne stop tijdens onze wandeling - We lopen het Hadrian Wall pad. We werden vriendelijk ontvangen en hadden een compleet ingerichte kamer met goede bedden en heerlijke warme douche. Zowel het ontbijt als het diner was prima. Het hotel ligt op enige afstand van het hotel maar is makkelijk te overbruggen met een taxi. n.v.t.
• peter (9/5): Highly recommended - Great location especially if you’re coming by train Amazing friendly team and lovely food Ian , the owner , provided a very nice transfer service from the wall It could have been a challenge walking from the wall with a pick up and return Nothing else to add
• Joost (10/5): Ondanks ver van de route, tophotel voor de Hadrians Wall wandeling - Onwijs aardig personeel! De kamer had een grote televisie en geweldige bedden. Ontbijt was fantastisch! Beste ontbijt dat we tijdens onze hike hebben gehad. Ruime keuze en een warm ontbijt. Als je ee Hadrians Wall wandelt is de locatie vrij ver van de route.
• M (10/5): The stay was great plus the added bonus of a superb pub with three live beers which i tested - The breakfast was one of the best i have had in over 50years of using B&B, great choices, and a great deal of thought has been put into the breakfast. Nothing
• Walter (9/5): - Sehr nettes Hotel, am Rand der northern pennines. Freundliches Personal, sauber renovierte Zimmer und gutes Essen im Pub. Entfällt.
• Sally (8/5): We enjoyed the venue and the ambiance, as well as the food. The room was small but comfortable. - location, friendly service, lively but jot noisy- food v good There was a mixup with our reservation. through Booking.com. I originally booked 3 nights but requested a change to 2 nights weeks before, but the change never got made. Bowes said it was up to Booking, Booking said it was up to Bowes, with the result that we paid for 3 nights although we only stayed for 2. Before the 3rd night, Booking requested the Bowes manager to authorize a refund of the 3rd night, but they refused. Bowes was technically within their rights, but they could have chosen otherwise.

• Simon (8/5): Comfortable room and great food, we enjoyed staying. - Comfortable room, great food and good value for money. The staff are very helpful and pleasant. The curtains let a bit too much light in and our bedroom window could have a low level curtain otherwise you are clearly visible from the road at the front and need to close the curtains to change or relax on the bed.

• Michael (7/5): Great location for Hadrian's Wall - The location worked well for us to visit Hadrians Wall The pub was a bit noisy and the room was very small
• Sue (9/5): A wonderful village pub conveniently placed for Hexham and Hadrians Wall. - The room was very comfortable and warm. There was a little desk with a chair, which we always like. There was no bath but the bathroom was very good otherwise. It was upstairs but the staff would have carried the bags up if we needed it. It was a gorgeous little pub with heaps of locals but they reserved us a table and the food was great. The breakfast was the best of our whole trip. The made us a packed lunch for a very reasonable price. There was plenty of street parking. The location was very close to all the sights of Hadrians wall that we wanted to see, and also close to Hexham where we went one evening for a concert. There was nothing to dislike.

• Cathryn (10/5): -
• martine (10/5): Fantastisch! - De ligging t.o.v. de Hadrian wall. De rust in het dorpje. De sfeer in de pub. De vriendelijkheid van het personeel. De moderne kamer. Een aanrader!
• Diana (10/5): - Vriendelijk personeel. Schoon en comfortabel. Goed eten. Een aanrader.
• seneca19 (9/5): Uriges Pub mit Leek und Onion - Wer in einem urigen Pub übernachten möchte, ist hier gut aufgehoben. Freundliches Personal, leckeres Frühstück und auch das Abendessen war sehr schmackhaft. Wir waren mit 6 Personen zwei Nächte da und gerne auch länger geblieben. Wir haben kostenlos gegenüber dem Pub geparkt, wobei die Parkplätze nicht zum Hotel gehören. Habe viel über Lauch und Zwiebel Wettbewerbe dazu gelernt. Leider haben wir den Wettbewerb eine Woche nach der Übernachtung verpasst. Nichts.
• David (7/5): A good stop-over for Hadrian's Wall - Our room was very good, spotless and comfy. Although overlooking the road, it was quiet. The bathroom was well designed with room to put our wash bags, tooth brushes etc (something other hotels could learn from). The staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast is plentiful and well cooked. The hotel's location makes it a good place to visit the wilder sections of Hadrian's Wall (around ten minutes away by car). For those travelling by train, the station is very close. It is more a pub with rooms rather than a hotel. There is no residents lounge and the main bar (with large 2 TVs showing sport) can get very busy.
• Julia (9/5): - Sehr charmantes Pub mit lecker essen, tolle Lage, sehr freundliches Personal.
• Ben (10/5): -
• Elery (10/5): Would definitely return to enjoy the location and hotel. - Everything was cooked to order …fresh, tasty. The staff were attentive and accommodating and made us welcome. Quiet location, no traffic noise.
• Janet (7/5): -
• keith (10/5): - very good
• Sarah (9/5): - Welcoming, friendly and attentive
• Graham (10/5): - Brilliant stay, really friendly staff and food is Fantastic. Very Quiet and and great location.
• Anne (5/5): - The room was facing the road without any privacy whatsoever - gorgeous room & stay otherwise
