Can’t fault The Old School House.

I arrived just after 8pm and was personally and kindly welcomed to The Old School House. After a long day’s walk, I was offered a drink, which was much appreciated. My bags were taken to my room, and I was given a tour of the property.Breakfast was homely and delicious, and I enjoyed meeting some lovely fellow guests. The place was immaculate, and the hosts were absolutely charming.I would definitely stay again and it was just what I needed after a 30-mile walk!

A Perfect B&B a Stone's Throw from Hadrian's Wall

We wholeheartedly recommend this very comfortable and friendly b&b within a few minutes drive of Hadrian's Wall. Kate and Ian made us feel very welcome and our room and breakfast were both perfect. A real gem.

Great B&B for visits to Hadrians Wall

Ian and Kate were great hosts, giving us a warm welcome to their lovely home, which was modern, clean and very comfortable. The Border Breakfast was amongst the best breakfasts we have ever had, high praise indeed! Haltwhistle also has very convenient pubs and restaurants and ideally placed for walks along the wall and visits to Homesteads and Vindolanda.

Lovely B&B near Hadrian's wall.

Ian and Kate were fabulous hosts! They offered to do some laundry which was needed after a muddy day on the trails. The accomodations were first rate. The breakfast and homemade lemon cake was delicious!! Would certainly recommend!

We loved everything about our stay at The Old School House! Kate and Ian warmly welcomed us upon our arrival and we immediately felt like we were staying with friends. Our room was clean and comfortable, and even included a welcome snack! This was a last minute stop, and we were so pleased with our good fortune to stay in lovely accommodations in a beautiful setting. Our breakfast was the best one during our two-week stay in the UK; fresh, delicious food, very generous portions and plenty of options. Thank you for a wonderful stay at the end of our vacation.

The Old School House is THE BEST B&B period. Kate and Ian go to great lengths to provide everything you could possibly need. They are so kind and hospitable. Kate provides a huge and delicious breakfast tailored to suite you. There is extra fruit to take away on your day trips. And fabulous cakes, tea, coffee, water and a chocolate to greet you in your room every afternoon. Don’t even think about staying anywhere else. You will love it!

This B&B was one of the best we stayed in during our 3-week stay in the U.K. Our room was beautifully appointed, spacious, and contained everything we needed. We were even able to do a load of laundry. Kate and Ian were very hospitable, and breakfast was amazing. Wish we could have stayed more than one night.
