Little gem of a pub and b@b. Little gem of a pub with fantastic food and just a walk away a Roman milestone worth a visit. Reasonable drinks at the bar and frequented by the locals which gave it a warm and welcoming feel.

Tonight I ordered a chickpea and sweet potato curry. I was charged £11.95. The curry arrived looking like a splat on the plate. It looked as if it had been cooked days ago and it tasted terrible and there were no chickpeas. It was the worst main course I have ever eaten.

This was a great place to stay The management was simple wonderful. The rooms were clean and in great shape. We were able to get great information of the surrounding area. We were able to eat dinner at the Inn. Breakfast was included, which was delicious. The food was excellent. It was a good sampling of food in Wales.

A lovely community pub with excellent ales and a great kitchen that happens to also have cozy rooms above—all prerequisites if you’re walking the Wall. Our room was clean and comfortable and though the pub was a delightful din of laughter and talk, upstairs when we turned in it was blissfully quiet. Highly recommend!

Geweldige ervaring om hier te verblijven. Ligt op de route van Hadrians walll. Goede sfeer, uitstekende keuken en mooie kamers. Ontbijt is ook verrukkelijk en alles met liefde bereid. Erg vriendelijke en goed georganiseerde staf. Een echte aanrader!

A nice inn on Hadrian's path - also the establishment of choice to grab a bite to eat in the very small village of Gilsland. The inn room is perfectly serviceable and well kept, a clean small room with a good (small) bathroom, and the food in the pub is much better than average - the food here is really good and a notch above the typical pub meal. A friendly welcome and good staff (they know walkers) help to make you feel at home. If you're walking the wall, I recommend booking this property - and do yourself a favor and book your meal table at the same time - there are not a lot of evening options around here!

I stayed here whilst walking the Hadrian's Wall Path, it is literally a two minute diversion off the trail. The staff were friendly and helpful, to say the least. The room was confortable and clean. The food in the restaurant is good value and served promptly, this also applies to the breakfasts. Although I stayed at the beginning of a week, the restaurant was busy so probably advisable to book. This was the third time I had stayed here and it never disappoints.

Good location if you are walking the Hadrians Wall Trail, as it’s literally less than 2 minutes walk off route. Room was clean and comfortable. Staff were lovely. But the winner for me was the food provided in the bar/restaurant. Hands down the cheese soufflé was the most gorgeous thing ever! Fingers crossed they get their railway station, which will make this Inn a even more perfect location for guests.
