The Apple Inn

Great location for visiting coastal attractions. Spacious, comfortable room. Friendly and helpful staff. Very good breakfasts and evening meals.

Quiet and friendly stay in a small peaceful Northumberland village , handy for coast and restful stay to alleviate Life’s pressures. Attentive and helpful staff who couldn’t do enough to make our time their comfortable and hassle free!

The accommodation is attached directly to a pub and offers a lovely room with a very spacious bathroom. We were even given a little welcome pack for our dog on arrival. Breakfast is served right in the pub, with a small buffet and a full breakfast which you can order from the menu. The staff are friendly, too, and it’s a great base for exploring the local area.

Nothing really to complain about. You’ll probably need a car.

The cooked food at breakfast was good. The staff at breakfast were enthusiastic. The room had a designer aesthetic and was of a good size, high ceilings and with a nice shower. The location was quiet and reasonably close to local attractions.

The room, although attractive, had not been designed from a practical perspective. There was no hanging space at all and no suitcase rest. Unfortunately, upon arrival, it appeared that the room had not been properly checked because it contained 3 very large wasps/hornets which we had to catch and take outside. Fortunately, they were quite dozy. We raised this as a concern with the reception staff because it was so unusual that we thought there was a nest nearby and that we would have more 'visitors'. We were told that maintenance would check this but there was no indication that anything was done subsequently and no confirmation it had been checked. There did not appear to be anywhere for washbags in the shower room, but we discovered a hidden drawer under the sink upon leaving. There were no curtains, only blinds and other guests could look in to the room from the exterior - which we noticed when having breakfast.
