Bowes is perfect for visiting Hadrian’s Wall and the many forts and museums around.
The staff were very friendly and helpful. We ate both nights at the Bowes and the food on both nights was very good. The Thai food was delicious and you could tell it was all freshly prepared and cooked.
The bed was comfortable and ideal for us after long walks.
We would have no hesitation in staying again.
Superb relaxing stay at the Bowes Hotel.
The staff are extremely friendly and helpful.
They went above and beyond to ensure we had a comfortable stay.
The food was excellent, all home made and plenty of choice on offer.
They also cater for vegetarians and vegans which made my day!
All the Thai dishes on the menu are authentic and very good.
The Thai mains can be made vegan or vegetarian with tofu or quorn.
The breakfast was also brilliant with plenty of choice for all dietary requirements.
They cooked me a full vegan breakfast and supplied me with oat milk for my coffee and cereal and vegan spread for my toast.
They certainly made a real effort to accommodate my dietary needs.
The hotel is spotless and the bedrooms are finished to a very high standard.
The bed and pillows are very comfortable and the shower nice and powerful.
The train station is a stone throw away and the location is perfect for exploring Northumberland.
I will definitely return to this hotel and would highly recommend it to my family and friends.
Thank you for such a lovely stay.
The hotel building seemed very old, but the inside has been very well modernised. Everything about our room was excellent. We had a very good evening meal and a super breakfast. It must be one of the best bed and breakfast hotels we have ever stayed in
Hotel was close to Vindolanda and walking on Hadrians Wall where we spent our day. Dinner at the pub and the breakfast included was one of the best full-English meals we've had on our 3week journey in the UK. Room was newly remodeled and very comfy beds.

Nice room! Dinner was very good and service was great.
The Bowes Hotel is a lovely hotel and pub in a small village near Hadrian's Wall. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The room was clean, fresh, and renovated within last 5 years. My friend stated if she could pack the bathroom in her suitcase and take it home she would! And, we had a lovely view of their garden. Would definitely stay there again.
The pub was great, cosy and food was fantastic as well as being reasonably priced. The staff are polite and very welcoming and provided lots of help throughout our stay. The room was very clean and tidy and comfortable. We will definitely be staying again and recommend this hotel to anyone. We are not dog owners but its extremely dog friendly.
Wonderful pub and B&B. All the people were friendly, helpful, and above and beyond. lovely rooms and delicious food. Perfect location getting to the sites
Very welcoming and friendly staff.
The room was modern and well equipped, very clean and comfortable.
Food and drinks were of a high standard.
We would definately stay here again.
From start to finish the customer service was fantastic , and will highly recommend the food it’s amazing , unfortunately we couldn’t sample the breakfast as we was leaving early in the morning , however they knocked us up a takeaway lunch ( Spot on too👍)
If I was in the area again I will be looking to stay there again .
Fantastic two day stay here. Couldn't fault it. Fab & friendly sraff. The food was excellent. My partner and I both agreed that the full English breakfast on a very cold winters day in front of the roaring fire was really first class - possibly the best breakfast ever! Room was lovely, very comfortable. Beautiful little village. Well worth a visit!
very friendly staff, the food was plentiful and good, its central to what we wanted to see, we will definitely go again and stay longer.
I would recommend a visit to anyone.
