The String Of Horses was an amazing place to stay. A quietly located inn it has superbly appointed rooms - the bathroom was amazing and the bed large and so comfortable; a lively restaurant serving quality high food and comfortable bar with an open fireplace.
Staff are friendly and provide an amazing service from front of house and throughout the bar and restaurant.
The breakfast service is high quality too with lovely food prepared to order.
Well worth a visit and we’ll be back 👍

It was a delightful inn with a restaurant attached. We didn’t have to walk or drive anywhere. Beds were comfy and an easy ride to Hadrian’s Wall

This property is in an old coaching inn, so it has lots of history and charm. The amenities,are great, it is clean and comfortable, and the staff are friendly and helpful. Our dinner here was wonderful. It's a very enjoyable place stay and convenient to the sites along Hadrian's Wall.

Quaint country pub with rooms. The staff are really helpful and friendly. The place is very clean and looks welcoming. However the room I had was small and basic but the bed was comfy and everything worked. Nowhere to sit comfortably or even to do some work. Food is very tasty especially the evening meals. Breakfast choice very good and again delicious food well presented. Thank you.

Excellent in every way in fact one of the best places I have stopped in. Cannot fault the place in any way just hope some big chain does not take it over. Fantastic bar restaurant and originality that is lacking in so many places.

This was a absolute highlight on our trip, the accommodations were great, the food was absolutely amazing as was the chef, combine that with our hosts and the locals who made you feel more than welcome.
We can’t recommend this place highly enough. Thank you to all of you for your generosity.

This was a great little find for an overnight stay. Not a lot nearby but you don’t need it.
A lovely 16th century bar area with good local beers. Rooms are decorated and furnished to a high standard.
The food in the restaurant was all superb as was the breakfast. Service in all areas was excellent making for a very good stay.

Lovely place. Very clean, delightfully decorated rooms with a nice firm mattress. Breakfast was fantastic, i couldn't believe it was in the very reasonable price I'd paid. Would have extended my stay but alas it was fully booked

This property was a find! I was concerned driving there as it was located in the middle of nowhere and thank God for Google maps else I don't know how I would find it. But what a delight! The room was comfy. The food was great. The service was exceptional. The bar was just a lot of fun. It was very convenient to Hadrian's wall

I messed up our booking and actually arrived a week early, however the lady was amazing and took it all in her stride and found us a superb room and was really accommodating of us being the wrong day. Unfortunately we missed supper but the menu look amazing, breakfast was delicious. The String of horses is traditional but also luxury with comfy mattress, pillows and soft towels. Very generous double ended bath. Highly recommend staying here.
