Good to Know

The Sun Inn is a traditional village pub on Northumberland Street, with rooms available as The Sun Rooms.

Why it's on our list: it's a proper local, with a handful of cask ales on, friendly staff and a welcoming crowd of regulars, and visitors staying in the village often end up making it their local for the week.

Worth knowing: the rooms are simple rather than smart. Also nearby are The Red Lion and the Ex-Servicemen's Club.

A Little Note From Heather & Sand

We haven't quite made it here ourselves yet, but it's on our list!

We're working our way around Northumberland, personally visiting and reviewing as many of the places featured in our Listed section as we can. It's a tough job, but somebody has to do it.

In the meantime, we do our homework. Before adding somewhere to Heather & Sand, we research it, look at what other visitors have to say and check that it has a good reputation. If the feedback isn't encouraging, it generally doesn't make our list.

Of course, a little online research is no substitute for muddy boots, a decent coffee and seeing somewhere for ourselves. So until we've visited, we'll leave the personal review to one side.

A little about us...

Heather & Sand is our little corner of Northumberland — a collection of places, stories, walks and discoveries from a county we love.

Through our Journal, Guide and Listed pages, we hope to help you discover somewhere new, revisit an old favourite or simply enjoy a little Northumberland from wherever you happen to be.
