THE COTTAGE INN 

Welcome to the cottage inn Hotel

The Cottage Inn Hotel is a few minutes from the spectacular Northumbrian Coast. Situated in 6 acres of sheltered woodland gardens we have 10 en-suite ground floor bedrooms. All of our guest bedrooms have been renovated and re-furbished now offering comfortable spacious accommodation overlooking our large rear lawn.

Northumbria is one of the UK's best kept open secrets with miles of fine spacious uncrowded beaches, unspoilt countryside, dozens of quiet villages set against the backdrop of the Cheviot Hills, some of the most beautiful scenery found anywhere.

The accommodation (including all public rooms) are on one level so handicapped guests are well catered for. The fully licensed 'Harry Hotspur Restaurant' and charming conservatory lead into the secluded gardens and patio. Carefully prepared food, friendly service and an old world atmosphere make a meal into a special occasion.
