Well appointed with everything you might need during your stay. A larger TV and a king size bed would be the only additions that would improve it. Great location for exploring Northumberland. Need to be aware that there are horses everywhere, so if you are taking a dog bear this in mind!

The photos really do not do it justice - it is way bigger than it looks. Great communication from the owners with very helpful advice and information about arrival and parking. The Granary is comfortable and we found it had everything we needed for our stay. We were delighted to find that the bed was so comfortable. The weather was mixed but The Granary was always warm and cosy. It is a great place to explore north Northumberland from with easy access to the caost and main roads, but very quiet and peaceful. It is somewhere that we would certainly consider using again. Thank you for a lovely stay.
