Golfing break
Nice comfortable hotel, good friendly staff and a very good menu choice. Rooms okay and clean although shower could have more power and have a working thermostat. Water just too hot, overall all guys happy with stay and location
Pleasant comfortable place to stay. Good prices, for accommodation, food and drinks.

A B&B pub in a peaceful location
The accommodation setting being a pub with bed and breakfast rooms was perfect and situated in a beautiful area which could be explored either by walking or further sights of inferest by a short drive away.
The pub area provided a plcae to have your evening meal as you would have to travel elsewhere if this wasn't an option. The food was home cooked a high standard providing very generous portions which was delicious.
The room that we had was a double bsd with en suite bathroom with over the bath shower. Both of thess facilities are tired and could do with updating. The carpet in the bedroom was worn around the edges, the bath was narrow to sit in, I ended up having to use the bath rather than the shower as the switches for the shower did not regulate the temperature meaning you'd either have a very hot and freezing cold shower.
Apart from the minor issues with the bathroom and dated/tired room, the hosts and staff were very friendly and helpful. The choice of food and options for breakfast were plentiful and again cooked to a good standard.
Overall, I would recommend staying hefe solely due to the ammenities offered during your stay and the location of this property.
Lovely hotel full of character. We loved the restaurant with delicious food. Staff were friendly and professional. The hotel is clean and cosy with beautiful area around it. Walkable distance to Dunstan
A really good stay - lean, comfortable rooms at good value for money. What stands out are the the staff and service; nothing is too much trouble, great hospitality, thanks.
(Breakfast is also superb!)
Very comfortable property surrounded by great walks & scenery.
Staff go out of their way to ensure you have an enjoyable stay.
Dogs are also made most welcome.
Had a lovely short break at the Cottage Inn, excellent location within walking distance of Craster and in a central position on the Northumberland Coast. Good base for anyone travelling in the area. The hotel has a real "pub feel" to it which we enjoyed as the locals were in the bar each evening which made a good atmosphere. Will certainly return
We enjoyed our stay we took our dog with us they were very accommodating friendly the hotel could do with a fresh coat of paint but it was an enjoyable stay also liver bacon and mash definitely worth ordering.
