Wonderful onsite managers .... A special thank you to DANNY and CHRISTIAN for your friendly yet unobtrusive hospitality! (You make a good stay great). Altogether a fitting and memorable end to my 2-week Hadrian's Wall / Coast-to-coast walk across England. This place is characterful, very clean and comfortable, if somewhat quaint and remote. Could be perfect if you seek peace or inspiration.
Only the fact that I couldn't stay here longer!

This is a B+B in a fabulous location, perfect for travelling Hadrian's Wall on cycle or foot. (Safe storage for any bikes). There are RSPB sites close by too. A great place for walks in nature. The hotel is going through a bit of renovation but that didn't impact on my stay. It's not a fancy place, I'm sure some would be disappointed, but it's clean, in a great location, value for money and the host is very welcoming.

My Mum and I had a lovely overnight stay at the Hope & Anchor. The accommodation is clean, homely and welcoming. I would ignore all the other negative reviews as they are completely unfair on the place and its owner. The location is beautiful and our room had an impressive sea view. I would give the accommodation 9/10 based on the price. I would certainly return in the summer months and enjoy a beer in the bar. A fantastic place all in all.

Really clean and comfortable room. Had everything you need for a short stay. On arrival, we were shown the room and told the necessary info. Also received a welcoming text from owner. The location is outstanding.
Nothing not to like except downstairs is a little dated but could be work in progress.

Host was very friendly, and gave us good advice on where to eat out. Nice location.
It's not a pub. Booking .com doesn't say it is a pub, but it doesn't say it isn't. So being a bloke you drop to "If not pub why pub shaped"
