We stayed one night with Ian & Kate in their wonderful B&B we only wished it was longer, their hospitality is first class along with the amenities offered. The breakfast was soooo yummy. Thank you again Ian & Kate. The B&B is close to the Roman attractions and Hadrians Wall

Stayed with Kate and Ian for five nights and couldn't have had kinder or more thoughtful hosts. I thoroughly recommend The Old School House for hikers, as they have all the facilities to dry walkers out after a day on Hadrian's Wall (and I believe the Penine Way) in the rain. The breakfasts are an absolute marvel, and the Border Breakfast is enough to keep you going all day. When you get back in the evening there's always a treat waiting next to the kettle in your room. If I'm ever plan to go back to the area I'd make sure they had space for me before I booked a trip. The lifts were an absolute Godsend on the rainy days and when the last bus was cancelled.

Delightful home away from home, bed and pillows were so comfy. Hosts Kate and Ian did everything possible to ensure I had everything I needed, even a drive to a local must see “Vindolanda” old Roman fort. Delicious breakfast - the homemade muesli especially!

This property is in an amazing and prime location for Hadrian’s all exploration. Close to the best preserved parts of the wall with great amenities nearby. Hosts Ian and Kate are exceptionally helpful and accommodating. Room was magnificent and breakfasts incredible! Just get here !

An excellent place to stay with friendly and helpful owners Ian and Kate. The building is quirky and tastefully decorated. There is great attention to detail in the adornment making it interesting to look at. The bathroom was large and nicely tiled. The breakfast was to die for, it’s highlights being the home made muesli, individual cafetières, china crockery and very tasty avocado and poached eggs!

It was great to catch up with Kate & Ian for our second visit. The review scores for this B&B are not an exaggeration as the hosts are clearly seeking out perfection in all aspects, particularly the hospitality shown and the breakfast on offer. We use it as a Scotland stop-over and to us, its worth the drive from the M6, but the outstanding Northumbrian scenery makes it a destination in its own right. Can't recommend highly enough.

My son and I stayed here while walking part of Hadrian's wall in very wet and cold conditions, so really appreciated Ian and Kate's warm welcome and space for drying our wet, muddy clothes and boots. Because of its location and proximity to the A122 bus stop it's the perfect base for 3 nights on the Hadrian's wall hike but it's very worthwhile staying here anyway for that warm welcome, the delicious breakfast and super-comfortable beds. The rooms ticked my box because in addition to all the normal things, they include a small fridge, herbal teas and conditioner as well as shampoo. A visit to the nearby Roman excavation site and museum at Vindolanda was fascinating and the wild Northumbrian scenery all around is spectacular. Ian and Kate are delightful hosts - friendly and considerate. We'll come again.

The best bed and breakfast I have stayed in. Kate and Ian were wonderful hosts. The bedroom/bathroom had everything - small fridge with fresh milk, toiletries, home made cookies each day on our return. Beautiful breakfast. Fresh fruit was available to take with you if desired. Nothing was too much trouble for the hosts.

Top notch B&B. Ideal accommodation, absolutely spotless, comfortable king-size bed with quality linen, towels and all the little extras. Tea, coffee, homemade biscuits and fresh milk and water in the room. Great to have a lounge area with lots of books and magazines. Lovely, welcoming people, and absolutely superb breakfasts. Ideally situated for exploring Northumberland and Hadrian's wall. Highly recommended.
