Guest Reviews

• Simpson (9/5): -
• Angela (10/5): -
• Clare (8/5): Clean, comfortable, excellent breakfast with extensive choices . - Private. Very clean . Beds very comfortable and provisions were good. Some furniture looks tired - could do with an update.
• Philip (10/5): Stay was perfect, all staff were friendly, food was gorgeous, rooms clean and comfortable - Perfect location, lovely room, nothing to fault Unable to find fault
• Ann Marie (9/5): -
• Lord Craig (4/5): -
• DelA66 (8/5): - The Room was nice and spacious. I felt the carpet needed a good clean.
• Keith (10/5): Fantastic place in a beautiful area - Our second stay at this lovely place. Another gorgeous, romantic room. We enjoyed a stunning seafood platter between us and finished our meal with a couple of cocktails. Fantastic breakfast which includes a buffet and a cooked meal. Can't wait to visit again 😍
• David (10/5): -
• Tracy (9/5): -
• R (7/5): - Excellent location. 15 walk to lovely beach. Very good breakfast . Freshly cooked to order. Themed room . Comfy bed but too many fluffy/ hairy soft furnishings - throw, bolster and curtains. Dust traps !
• Raine (10/5): Two very comfortable night, would go back if in the area - Cosy room, super clean, warm and welcoming Nothing
• Payne (10/5): -
• Walker (8/5): -
• Rachel (7/5): Location was perfect, room was lovely, staff were very helpful. - Location was wonderful, minutes from the coastal path. We stayed in the shepherds hut which was lovely. The breakfast was disappointing. sandwiches advertised to be in bloomers when in fact in pre packed sliced bread. £5 supplement on the bed and breakfast price for sourdough and avocado or hollandaise sauce I don’t think acceptable for £220 per night. We stayed 2 nights. Room wasn’t serviced, instead clean towels, milk, tea and coffee left at the door.
• stephen (9/5): Excellent short stay location. - Excellent very accommodating. Not a lot of immediate parking.
• Lindsey (9/5): Fabulous location and all the staff were great and very attentive. We had dinner each evening and this was very nice - Location Staff were great Rooms probably need a refresh
• Debbie (8/5): Great stay in a wonderful location. - The room was very comfortable & tastefully decorated. The food at dinner and at breakfast was very good. The property was in a great location for the wedding we were attending at Newton Hall. All of the staff were attentive & friendly. Although the shower was hot for me when my husband went to use it after me there was only cold water which was not ideal.
• Hudson (9/5): Beautiful location with very comfortable rooms. - The room was beautiful, clean and comfortable. The cooked breakfast was fine for me, but my partner thought there should've been the option to have a larger one.
• Jane (10/5): Thoroughly enjoyable stay, great food. Spacious and comfortable rooms. Excellent cocktails. - Great location, staff were extremely friendly Lack of hot water for a shower early evening. Problem was resolved by the morning
• Elaine (9/5): -
• JOHN (10/5): -
• Jade (9/5): -
• Jacqui (9/5): A few tweaks and this would be perfect! - Great food Nice bedroom Lovely staff TV reception was poor and TV quite small, given the rooms were billed as luxury rooms. Room extremely hot Hot water ran out in the morning Difficult to fill kettle in the room because kettle didnt easily fit under the tap Disappointing selection of teas in bedroom
• Sheena (8/5): -
• Alison (8/5): -
• Emily (4/5): -
• Barbara (10/5): -
• Rachel (5/5): The place was ideal but I feel as if the staff let the stay down for us. - The location and the room were ideal. Dog bed provided was dirty. Staff were quite dismissive in regards to certain things such as table service and payment issues.
• Heather (7/5): Average - Good location No hot water and shower was poor
• Joanne (10/5): Looking forward to revisiting one day. - The room was cosy and there was such a lovely feeling about the place. All staff members were welcoming and friendly. We would definitely like to have a return visit one day. There wasn't anything I didn't like..
• DAN (8/5): -
• Christopher (8/5): Really good experience - Great location with good food and access to the beach. Really dog friendly as well. Nothing
• Jane (10/5): Classy pub with unique style - We always knew this was a lovely pub as we have walked to it many times. But the accommodation makes it even better. Unique rooms with quirky decor. Very special Nothing
• Claire (8/5): Not as good as it used to be - We have stayed at Xmas before so know its a great location only 5ish mins walk from a mostly deserted beach. The staff were almost all brilliant, helpful and lovely to deal with. The shower was great. We stayed in a different room this time (Aln) which was much smaller, the bed was unbelievably firm (id call it very hard to be honest), the lighting was too low to do makeup or even read! And one of the lights turned itself off after being on for about an hour leaving the room in near darkness and the bedside lights dont work at all on either side. The breakfasts were cold every day and the portions were meager (half a slice of black pudding and half a ramekins of beans?!). Considering the price of this hotel has increased significantly in the 3 years since we stayed before this is all really disappointing.
• Peter (7/5): Lovely little get away but room for improvement. - Very cosy and clean room. No towels on arrival. Requested towels and they still didn’t arrive. I had to go and personally collect the towels to ensure I had them. The mattress was also one of the most uncomfortable ones I’ve slept in to date and definitely not something I thought would be in a 4 star establishment.
• Simon (10/5): -
• Louise (10/5): - The room was beautiful. We ste in the pub for dinner and breakfast both were delicious. We stayed here on our way up to Edinburgh, and it was a lovely addition to the trip.
• long (5/5): Uncomfortable hard and small bed, poor lighting. - The food was lovely and the staff were professional and friendly. We stayed in the Aln. We found the room quirky but that didn't compensate for the lack of light or the very uncomfortably hard mattress. A double bed? I can't remember the last time a double room actually meant a double bed. Disappointing, sorry.
• Melanie (10/5): Perfection and just what is needed to recharge and reconnect - Excellent location , accommodation was individualised and of great standard Lovely staff , food was of high quality and good menu choices Nothing , all great
• Katherine (9/5): - Bath in room, shower brilliant, pub fab, village beautiful, great breakfast and dinner nothing
• jeremy (8/5): Enjoyed the stay but disappointed to note rats at the rear of the property next to the hot tub. - Good location Vermin in the back yard
• Matthew (9/5): -
• alistair (7/5): The Joiners is comfortable but in need of a smarten up to be worthy of the premium price - Location excellent and room warm and comfy Everything is looking "tired" carpets in accommodation worn and tatty, outside seating area untidy and needing some attention, staff are friendly but dressed very casually with no uniform.
• Campbell (8/5): -
• Elaine (7/5): - Nice room, cosy kind of quirky, enjoyable stay. Comfortable bed! Food was average, I had an evening meal and breakfast. The evening meal was quite nice (gluten free fish & chips) but the breakfast was very average. The waitress was really friendly but the manager, assuming it was the manager who checked me in, was what I would describe as cold. I couldn't say she was rude, but just not that friendly. Seemed to be a chore to be doing her job. I work in a people facing role, so I understand there are times you feel like not smiling...but it is your job, good customer service goes such a long way in making an experience feel good.
• Mary (10/5): -
• Gwydron (8/5): Nice location and hotel however could be improved - Room comfy, Temple spar products in the room. Nespresso machine etc. like the decor in the Still. Prices are high for drinks in the pub. Breakfast was cold along with the coffee which is disappointing
• Emma (9/5): -
• Michaela89. (10/5): Perfect place for couples - Perfect peaceful beautiful location Price
• James (7/5): -
• William (10/5): - Everything was great 👍
• Ken (8/5): - Only 4 spaces available, public car park some distance away
• Donna (5/5): Not a 5* experience. I don't recommend the Joiner's Arms - sorry. - Close to beautiful coast (and quirky The Ship Inn) Breakfast saved the day (apart from the flies- mentioned in other reviews) Just not a "5*" experience, guys. Sorry I can't recommend you to friends. Evening meal really poor. Steak and Ale pie £20 with hardly any steak. Chicken flatbread slightly better but still poor value. Left hungry, and it spoiled our night (go to The Ship Inn for pie night - looked amazing!). Room attempting to be shabby chic but more shabby than chic - as plenty other reviews have mentioned. Photos make it look better than it actually is (Aln) as the room has a poor finish and is dark. We were cold - again, this has been mentioned in other reviews. It doesnt have adequate light/mirror to do make up. Not sure what the going rate is, but we paid £108 and if I had paid more, i would've been v unhappy. Coffee machine a bit naff for '5 star' - it broke anyway. Assuming being kept afloat due to weddings at Newton Hall. Staff working 13.5hour shifts probably doesn't help matters.
• Louise (10/5): -
• James (8/5): - Easy parking. Nice rooms. Staff very good. Food average.
• Mark (10/5): - Really nice cosy, romantic room. Really good breakfast. We had dinner booked elsewhere, but we wished we had a second night to eat at the restaurant, it looked very nice.
• lisa (6/5): Nice one night stay but disappointed with our meals - The room was lovely we stayed in the Bill Baggs room . It was clean and comfortable. The thing that lets this place down is the food . Obviously they need new kitchen staff to turn this place around as we gave the food 5/10.
• Jonathan (7/5): -
• Charlotte (10/5): Great place, fog friendly - Lovely place. Friendly and comfortable
• Sarah (10/5): -
• samantha (10/5): -
• Barrylewis (6/5): Rather below the standard expected for the price paid. - Staff friendly and helpful. Room ‘quirky’ and good size. Breakfast menu adequate. Chose a light evening meal - it was, indeed, very light and basic. For the price, would expect a simple coffee machine and some tissues and a more thoughtful arrangement of the antique furniture in the room. Breakfast buffet spread across the bar. Cooked breakfast service suffered staffing challenges. Queueing for the coffee/tea ‘machine’ was a nuisance
• Janine (9/5): -
• adrian (8/5): - Good location for Northumbrian coast. Lovely room with great bathroom. Good food Friendly staff
• Gary (10/5): -
• MICHAEL (8/5): Enjoyable and would definitely stay again. - A good feel to the place overall. Room was comfortable and thought shown to the decor. Good pub food. Minor issue is limited parking on site but free car park not far away.
• Robert (10/5): Relaxing,friendly and food was delicious. - Playlists at dinner & breakfast were ace. The young lady(who’s off to Uni) was super helpful and professional at breakfast. The rooms were decorated beautifully. The staff were all approachable and friendly. The mattress was slightly too firm for us but that is a personal choice.
• David (10/5): -
• Stuart (3/5): Wonderful location and venue, but terrible sleeping conditions and accommodation - Location, staff and food were wonderful, and the pub itself had a warm and welcoming atmosphere The bed - despite all the positives, the bed was rock hard and we didn’t sleep at all. With such lavish touches, it was a odd to skimp on such a fundamental part of our stay. We complained but have had no response from the hotel
• Marco (8/5): -
• Conor (10/5): Lovely post-wedding stay with the dog! - Quaint property that is comfortable, friendly and beautifully designed. Nothing
• Dominic (7/5): -
• Keith (5/5): Over priced for that room too small. - Not what we expected Small room dark.Bathroom dark toilet seat in poor condition .
• Eleanor (9/5): A really lovely stay with a bougey luxury feel - The room and deco was stunning, was really blown away! Was super clean! The dressing robes and yummy chocolates was a lovely touch Generally we had a lovely time but if I had to do say something, I would say the service was a little slow towards the end of the night whilst relaxing in the bar wanting drinks
• Donna (8/5): Quite, beautiful location - Lovely accomodation, loved the fluffy towels and roll top bath, very spacious room. Food was nice somethings a little over priced. Lovely area, friendly staff.
• david (4/5): - No Parking on site. No help with luggage up stairs,rooms accessible via door marked toilets at back of bar.Had to leave a £50 credit card deposit in case we had to use the bar,not exactly 5star!!! Room was dusty above eye level,no information booklets in room,no telephone to reception,shower did not drain well and flooded bathroom floor,loud music from bar past 11pm.If the Company regard this as five star. they are deluded beyond belief This is an average pub with a few rooms and a lack of facilities and is a bit tacky.
• John (10/5): - Excellent
• Tracy (8/5): - Lovely room, location good. However a very busy pub, full every night, which resulted in busy staff and noise from the bar until 10pm. Good to see a busy pub, but this isnt always helpful if you're early to bed!
• Andy (6/5): - Extremely overpriced food and drinks
• John (5/5): Ok but not going to return - Staff were most helpfull and welcoming. Location was good for coastal walks. Joiner's Arms caters well for families with well behaved dogs. Room was noisy above kitchen from 7.00 am untill 10.00 pm. Parking was very limited but we knew this was a problem. Restaurant was marketed as a gastro pub but we thought menu was unexceptional, just decent pub food. Overall overpriced and not a five star experience.
• Christopher (3/5): Book anything aside from the castle view cottage. - N/A The cottage isn't a patch on the other rooms or the pictures on the site
• Ross (10/5): -
• Louise (8/5): A lovely night away - Lovely location, quirky room, comfortable and right near to the beach Nothing!
• Keith (10/5): - Great place, lovely food, friendly staff
• Julie (6/5): Lovely room but let down by poor service of staff and quality of food - Clean room and comfortable bed Check in not welcoming food quality poor staff indifferent and made you feel like a nuisance
• Terence (10/5): - Oldy-worldy charm in a converted attic, complete with a copper tub (separate from the bathroom). The only (minor) downside is the narrow, steep staircase to two of the rooms which might be troublesome for some people. Excellent 5-star breakfast.
• Arthur (8/5): great times - breakfast, restaurant ambience dinner staff not so friendly
• Katie (8/5): Very good -
• Paul (6/5): - Stayed in building opposite the pub, the room was very small and in need of a little TLC. Food in the Joiners was very good, the parking is very limited with only four spaces, there is a free car park nearby. Only stayed for one night so not to much of an inconvenience...
• Olga (10/5): - What a fantastic place! Excellent vibe, comfortable stylish accommodation, great restaurant which we used for dinner and breakfast - all in all unforgettable stay!
• Tricia (7/5): Good -
• Erik (9/5): Nice stopover on our way to Scotland. - Very nice room. Quiet location in a great area. Breakfast felt a bit chaotic with plenty of non-residents. Continental breakfast choice is pretty limited.
• Janice (9/5): Superb - Excellent room. Good vibe No parking space. Breakfast beans dey
• Anton (10/5): Worth a visit. - A real gem. I had the Till room. A double with single bunks. A beautiful room with charm and all the comforts you need.
• Abigail (8/5): Very comfortable rooms with a few flaws. Pricey. - Beautiful room furnishings and bathroom. Very comfortable. Good breakfast. Just 10 mins from the coast. A welcome stop off point when walking the Northumberland coastal path. A bit of maintenance required - chipped toilet seat and bath, with paint peeling from window frames. Lacks a well lit mirror. Food and drink is very expensive for what you get.
• Alex (2/5): 1 star stay in a 5 star hotel (apparently). With no hot water - Room decoration was very tired. TV wouldn't stay straight on the wall, missing handle from dressing table, quite noisy and NO HOT WATER! Expensive room for what we received. Absolutely nothing 5 star about the hotel. We had park in a public carpark down the road and carry our bags down a lane. The hotel said they had parking for residents but all spaces were already taken by none residents. Staff just really didn't care. We left because there was no hot water.... How do they expect people to stay in a hotel with not hot water? What are you actually paying for? What are the 5 star facilities? There was nothing.
• Helen (7/5): Good - Large spacious room. Located close to walking trails and beach. Limited parking (4 spaces) Last orders called 10.15pm Saturday night. Breakfast items not replenished (tea pots and cold meats) Bath water tepid.
• Karen (10/5): Great hospitality - Hotel was fab. Very clean and food was good. Staff couldn’t do enough for you. Downside was parking on site was very limited. Would stay again if we were in that part of the world once more.
• Simon (6/5): Pleasant - Great location nice large room Water in shower was tepid or cold and some furnishings tired. Breakfast a bit basic unless you paid £5 extra and there was no muesli. Poor value given premium price
