Fabulous food with a large menu choice. Reasonable prices too. The room was warm and comfortable with a comfy bed. Great view of Simon side too.Gail the owner was lovely and friendly and James the head barman was very helpful and chatty.It is an old building with bags of character which could be improved with just a couple of changes. Updating the seating in the bar area and a change of carpet in the restaurant would look fantastic.Breakfast was plentiful and varied. A Nespresso machine would be great for coffee choices.Sunday roasts were extra special.Great choice of meats and plenty of fresh vegetables and the Lamb Kleftico was amazing!😋 Thanks for making our stay special. We would definitely recommend and return.

Our shower was a bit noisy but Gail said this was going to be replaced soon. Not a fan of Jack Rabbit wine so more wine choices would be good.

The family room was more than big enough, a very comfortable size. Two single beds and a double. Lovely little views on the nighttime when the village was lit up with Christmas lights and the little church that was lit inside. The bathroom was large, everything you needed was there, it was practical, had a separate bath and shower. A hairdryer was in the room in the dressing table draw. A stand height fan was available. Beautiful mattresses, plenty of pillows and extra throws available in the wardrobe, if needed. We had fab sleeps. Each bed had their own set of complimentary toiletries set out with a choice of towels. The largest towel was a bath sheet which isn't always the case but this was well thought out and much appreciated. We only had breakfast and it was fantastic. There was an extensive selection. They were very happy to adjust items where possible. The ingredients were of high quality, not the cheaper end and the plate of good reflected this. We only saw one member of staff with it being Christmas but she was great, couldn't do more to help. The chef produced a great breakfast to start the day. The establishment is dog friendly, so rooms were fine to keep dogs in. There's 2 sides to the pub, one dog friendly and one not. The one that dogs can't go in has the most spectacular views and you can access them if you do have dogs by a side gate. Overall, would certainly recommend.

(If there was one tiny thing I'd change and that is a plumper duvet on the double bed.)

We stayed mid week 25-27 September 2024. Exceptional value for money. Double room (we stayed in Room3) was much bigger than your standard double room with two chairs, wardrobe, dressing table, bedside tables and a large toilet/shower room. Window overlooked the enclosed beer garden to the rear which was ideal for letting our Lab run off her led without fear of the road. Meals were exceptional and reasonably priced with substantial portions. ( I actually had a starter with a portion of hand cut chips as my main as I am not a big eater.) Hubby had the roast dinner and we both had dessert, a few drinks and total cost was less than £50 ! Very reasonable. Bar area had lovely leather chesterfield sofas for comfy drinkers and table for diners and with no TV's was lovely and relaxing. At the time of booking we didn't realise that cabin was in operation but the Landlady was kind enough to take me out and show me. Well equipped and heated with a decking area, table and chairs( sun loungers too cold and wet to use LOL) It has it's own separate access which means you can come and go without entering the bar area if you prefer. Will definitely stay again and book the cabin.

The wet weather! Not that anyone could have done anything to sort that but will definitely be back in better weather

Lovely big family room with two single beds for the children Most family rooms these days only offer bunk beds, but this room is so big it easily accommodates two single beds and a king-size bed which are very comfortable. Very spacious bathroom with a bath and a shower. Ample towels, face cloths and toiletries provided. The room was also spotless and had everything you needed. We used the restaurant, which was very good and there's plenty of options including vegetarian and vegan. The childrens menu is also very good and breakfast was of a high standard. Everyone was very helpful and James even helped carry our luggage. We never used the bar, but it seems very popular. There's ample parking and the location and views are fabulous. It's ideal for visiting Cragside, Northumberland etc.

great communication from the hotel before our stay and a friendly welcome and showed straight to our room on arrival, (even though we were later arriving than we'd anticipated due to an unforeseen travel delay). It's great place for food (both breakfast and evening meal were piping hot and very tasty & well priced). all served with quick & friendly but not over fussy service which allowed us to relax. The lady serving us breakfast (sorry I'm terrible with names) but I'll say she's ex-dungiven and she'll know who I'm talking about, she gave us great advice on the Cragside location we were in the area to visit and this info enhanced our days visit to cragside. The room had almost everything we needed for our nights stay and if I'm back in the locality I'd definitely stay here again or even if just passing close by I'd call in for just some food. Overall great value for the room including breakfast and an enjoyable stay, thanks.

If I had anything I'd want to change about the three wheat heads stay or even recommend to them to change it would be the pillows in the room (sorry to say but they were all flat and offer no support/comfort at all). Would it stop me from coming back and staying overnight here again - a resounding NO IT WOULDN'T

Staff were really friendly and welcoming with a good atmosphere. The bed was very comfortable and clean so we had a really good sleep. The breakfast was amazing, a bit big for me, maybe offer a small English also but we couldn't fault it.

Just a small gripe as we did enjoy our stay. Although they were ok, the dishes on the evening menu didn't really match what we expected. The starters were lovely but the main courses let them down. For instance the lasagne had no sauce, and we couldn't see any pasta. The bechamel looked more like grated cheese. The sizzling plate was chicken and a creamy style sauce which didn't have any onions/peppers and didn't sizzle, the meal was mainly chips and rice. The kleftiko was just slow cooked lamb which was very tender but it wasn't kleftiko. If continental dishes are on a menu they should be authentic.

The Three Wheat Heads is a pub with rooms rather than a hotel and on that basis, we really liked it. The staff were excellent, as were the bar and restaurant and the bedroom was really comfortable. The food was both really good with a large choice and reasonably priced. The view from the restaurant over the countryside is lovely. The Three Wheat Heads is in a great location for exploring the surrounding countryside as well as towns like Alnwick. I would not hesitate to stay there again.

If I was being really picky, the shower was a bit noisy, however, there was nothing I didn't like.

The staff were definitely a highlight for us - super friendly and helpful from check in until check out. The rooms were a little dated but comfortable, clean and with everything we needed. We brought our dog and were made to feel very welcome - filling water bowls, dog treats on the bar and lots of fussing of her! Dogs allowed in the bar area so we ate our meal in there (still tables etc for dining). Food was delicious- I can highly recommend the chicken sizzler with Moroccan orange sauce!

We were happy with everything!

Another great stay. Comfortable rooms , lovely views. Stayed in first night for evening meal. Lovely food , great service. Breakfasts lovely from full English to lighter and veey nice yoghurt and berryies.Only thing to be mindful of large portions when ordering good, no one could say you get ' shortchnged' !l. Great location for access to Nortumbrian towns and coastal area.

If you want to eat in Rothbury best to book as limited options for restaurants. However, if willing to drive, hop over to Morpeth plenty there.

The Three Wheat Heads Inn in Thropton is an absolute delight! From the moment we arrived, the friendly staff made us feel incredibly welcome. The value for money is exceptional, with top-quality service and amenities at a great price. Both dinner and breakfast were excellent, featuring delicious and beautifully prepared dishes. The accommodation was wonderfully comfortable, providing a cozy retreat after a day of exploring. We couldn't have asked for a better stay and can't wait to return!

Nothing.
