They went above and beyond to be so accommodating. I would definitely stay here again ##### sandra Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Alan 5 May 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Old-fashioned and characterful. Nice village. Staff seemed overrun one morning. ##### Alan Stayed 2 nights in May 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 5 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness #### Blue Bell An elderly Coaching Inn - which, sadly, is starting to show it's age. Staffing levels do not seem to be adequate; there are known problems with the hot water supply and the meal menu was limited. Nevertheless, the room was quiet and comfortable enough and the hotel is very well situated for visiting the coast and numerous local attractions such as Bamburgh Castle. Useful bus services to Berwick, Bambugh and Newcastle. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Cheryl 29 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort Disliked: Property conditions & facilities #### Needs a bit of remodeling Charming town to stay in for a trip to Bamburgh castle. Old hotel so some quirks to be expected. It was a picturesque view from our hotel room and our beds were comfortable and clean However, toilet didn’t flush reliably and shower was not functioning. Glasses by the kettle were grimy and there were several spiders taking up residence in the bathroom. The food was very good and the women running it was lovely and clearly doing everything herself. ##### Cheryl Stayed 1 night in Jun 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### TRuck 16 Apr 2018 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities #### Great for eating - but that's it It's as if this hotel is a work in progress which is surprising due to its history - Smells very damp and the decor needs a major lift as do the rooms which are exceptionally basic. This was very disappointing. Facilities in rooms, shower, toilet, carpets, beds and storage ALL need improving. Then as a paradox you go for food in a modern, well presented restaurant which has amazing food! A real dilemma to suggest folks stay here - the place was full of Groupon deals and everyone raved about the food and 'accepted' the conditions because of that. I dont share this, the place needs an upgrade and to get rid of the overpowering smell of damp and decay. ##### TRuck Stayed 1 night in Apr 2018 ### 4/10 Poor #### Kevin 30 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities On arrival we were greeted well and efficiently, however there was not really enough staff to cover everything. Staff were friendly and very helpful . I booked for three nights and expected three full English breakfasts. Unfortunately upon arrival we were informed that there was no chef for Saturday morning while this was disappointing we were assured all would be ok for Sunday and Monday morning . On Sunday there was a full English which was good, however Monday morning chef failed to turn up so it was tea and toast . This was not what I had paid for . The hotel despite been clean and tidy is very tired and needs a considerable sum spending on it to justify its three star rating . While the bedroom was spacious and clean the bathroom was a different matter . Ceiling cracked above the wash basin, shaving light not working , radiator not working . The window was impossible to open as the cords on the sash were snapped and looked like they had been for years . All in all a disappointing stay , despite the friendly and helpful staff . ##### Kevin Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Robert 8 Sept 2024 ##### Robert Stayed 1 night in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Isabe 7 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities ##### Isabe Stayed 7 nights in May 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### francis 30 May 2024 ##### francis Stayed 3 nights in May 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Ed 21 May 2024 ##### Ed Stayed 1 night in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 31 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Mar 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### ken 25 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities ##### ken Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 18 May 2018 ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in May 2018 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Carden Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chester-Hotels-Carden-Park.h190780.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton by Hilton London Gatwick Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gatwick-Hotels-Hampton-By-Hilton-London-Gatwick-Airport.h7234788.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton by Hilton London Stansted Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stansted-Hotels-Hampton-By-Hilton-London-Stansted-Airport.h18464320.Hotel-Information) > > [Stratford Manor Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stratford-Upon-Avon-Hotels-Stratford-Manor.h27936.Hotel-Information) > > [Ashford International Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ashford-Hotels-Ashford-International-Hotel.h527123.Hotel-Information) > > [Retallack Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/St-Columb-Major-Hotels-Retallack-Resort.h4537229.Hotel-Information) > > [Bloc Hotel London Gatwick Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gatwick-Hotels-Bloc-Hotel-London-Gatwick-Airport.h6594190.Hotel-Information) > > [Sand Bay Holiday Village](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Weston-Super-Mare-Hotels-Sand-Bay-Holiday-Village.h11443695.Hotel-Information) > > [St Michael's Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Falmouth-Hotels-St-Michaels-Resort.h2951426.Hotel-Information) > > [Crowne Plaza Stratford Upon Avon by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stratford-Upon-Avon-Hotels-Crowne-Plaza-Stratford-Upon-Avon.h11307.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton London Gatwick Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gatwick-Hotels-Hilton-London-Gatwick-Airport.h20753.Hotel-Information) > > [Norbreck Castle Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Blackpool-Hotels-Norbreck-Castle-Hotel.h6377.Hotel-Information) > > [Eastwell Manor, Champneys Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ashford-Hotels-Eastwell-Manor.h905662.Hotel-Information) > > [Camelot Castle Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tintagel-Hotels-Camelot-Castle-Hotel.h8083111.Hotel-Information) > > [Hollins Hall Hotel, Golf & Country Club](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Shipley-Hotels-Hollins-Hall-Hotel.h63744.Hotel-Information) > > [Chesford Grange Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kenilworth-Hotels-Chesford-Grange.h920291.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Burstin Hotel Folkestone](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Folkestone-Hotels-Grand-Burstin-Hotel-Folkestone.h1201483.Hotel-Information) > > [The Mill Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chester-Hotels-The-Mill-Hotel-Spa.h1695656.Hotel-Information) > > [Village Hotel Manchester Ashton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ashton-Under-Lyne-Hotels-Village-Hotel-Manchester-Ashton.h1848975.Hotel-Information) > > [The Winchester Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Winchester-Hotels-The-Winchester-Hotel-Spa.h26080.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton at St George's Park, Burton Upon Trent](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Burton-On-Trent-Hotels-Hilton-At-St-Georges-Park.h5094740.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Blu Hotel Manchester, Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Manchester-Hotels-Radisson-Blu-Hotel-Manchester.h120016.Hotel-Information) > > [The Spa Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Royal-Tunbridge-Wells-Hotels-The-Spa-Hotel.h8849.Hotel-Information) > > [Hythe Imperial Hotel Spa & Golf](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hythe-Hotels-Hythe-Imperial-Hotel-Spa-Golf.h9108.Hotel-Information) > > [The Rutland Arms Hotel, Bakewell, Derbyshire](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bakewell-Hotels-The-Rutland-Arms-Hotel.h792056.Hotel-Information) > > [Harbour Beach Club & Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Salcombe-Hotels-Harbour-Beach-Club-Hotel-Spa.h2261933.Hotel-Information) > > [Fistral Beach Hotel and Spa - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newquay-Hotels-Fistral-Beach-Hotel-And-Spa-Adults-Only.h1895493.Hotel-Information) > > [Worcester Whitehouse](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Worcester-Hotels-Worcester-Whitehouse.h18498.Hotel-Information) > > [Cotswolds Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chipping-Norton-Hotels-Cotswolds-Hotel-Spa.h13106835.Hotel-Information) ---
