Bed and Breakfast Description

Originally built as a farmstead in 1747, this four star Inn and restaurant features a cosy, wood burning stove, sunny walled beer-garden, conservatory, excellent bar meals and a la carte menus (including vegetarian) using fresh, local produce, good choice of wines and a wide range of cask and bottle conditioned beers from local micro-breweries.

A friendly, family run hotel, it has 17 en-suite bedrooms, including ground floor rooms with disabled access, and is ideally placed for exploring Hadrian’s Wall, Kielder and Border Reiver country, whether by car, cycle or on foot.

Converted from an 18th Century farmstead, this family run, four-star Inn provides a warm welcome to residents and non-residents alike, with a traditional character and friendly atmosphere combining to make a memorable stay.

Bedrooms have been carefully modernised to provide comfortable accommodation, all rooms are en-suite and have colour television, DVD, ironing boards and hairdryer. We have four rooms specifically for visitors with disabilities on the ground floor and close to parking spaces.

The traditional Northumbrian bar features a cosy wood burning stove and a selection of regional ales, both bottled and cask (4 always available), keg beers and and an extensive list of over 20 wines.

Bar meals, hot and cold sandwiches and selections from our blackboard menu are available throughout the day. Packed lunches are available for residents. During summer (weather permitting!) we have a large, walled beer garden.

Local Attractions

There are many picturesque walks around Wark village and salmon and trout fishing can be arranged on the River North Tyne by prior notice.

Bellingham (pronounced Bell-ing-jum), a village on the North Tyne, four miles north of Wark is regarded as the modern capital of North Tynedale. It is situated right at the heart of what was once part of Northumberlands Border Reiving country. The nearby Hesleyside Hall was the home to one famous Border Reiving clan, the Charltons who derived their name from the hamlet of Charlton, to the west of Bellingham. In the uppermost reaches of the River North Tyne, to the east of Bellingham, is the huge dam of Kielder Water, the largest man-made lake in Europe. Kielder stretches along the North Tyne Valley for about seven miles, has 27 miles of shoreline and a surface area of 2684 acres. It features many outdoor sporting activities including shooting, fishing, riding, boating, windsurfing, walking and much more.

The Roman Wall
Hadrian’s Wall crossed the River North Tyne only a few miles south of Wark, near the Roman fort of Chesters (CILURNUM) and the modern day village of Wall. This fort was one of the biggest in the Wall Country and was originally built to house a cavalry regiment

The site is best known for the foundations of a Roman Bath House, which is one of the best preserved in Britain. Upstream the valley beyond here is entirely to the north of Hadrian’s Wall.

Further afield are Hexham Racecourse for lovers of the turf and, within an hours driving distance, both Beamish Open Air Museum (an amazing experience for historians and families alike – especially when they demonstrate Victorian sweet-making and give away free samples!) and Alnwick Castle and Gardens which will be linked with ‘Harry Potter’ for an entire generation.
