May 27, 2026Travelled with 2 puppies was worried about how things would be. Didn’t need to be worried as dog friendly rooms available & staff very accommodating.
Meals served all day & a good variety to choose from.
Have booked for close family to stay later in the year.

Jun 21, 2026What a fabulous friendly place. We came on Friday night when they were having a charity night quiz.
What an amazing atmosphere the people were just so lovely.
We’ll be back again and hopefully join in this time.
The landlady Clair had seen us standing and came over and found us a table. Although we didn’t have tickets for the quiz we felt very much a part of it
Thank you

Apr 27, 2025Excellent hotel.
We booked this last minute trip to Northumberland. We have driven past often during summer holidays and were looking for a hotel for a few nights. The staff were lovely and the food was excellent. The room was spotless but a little small, however as we only booked the night before we thought we were lucky to get a room!!
Embleton is close to lots of attractions, close to the beach and Alnwick and Craster. It’s great value for the price and we will definitely be back.

May 7, 2026Breakfast offered a varied menu . Big plates , ideal before setting out on an adventure.The staff were without exception very helpful . We had bikes . They dont have an enclosed or dedicated space but we locked them at the rear of the property . We needed to park on the street . This was not a problem whilst we stayed .

Feb 24, 2026Lovely big bed and excellent plumbing. Practical room and slightly dated decor.
Window onto narrow yard with almost no view. Good quality blinds and thick heavy curtains. Warm with effective radiator.

Jul 28, 2025Room small and unwelcoming. Dated furniture and bathroom. Stair carpet from reception to room looks dirty and dated as does hall carpet. Paid 135.00 way overpriced for room size and furnishings, shower not very good. Beside lamps didnt work. We stay in hotels all the time. Travelodge rooms are better. Sorry this is a not very characterful pub witb y0/70's style rooms.
