We went to the Anchor In Whittonstall as a prize in a competition which was pre booked for us.

The staff were very helpful and the owners Karen and Gavin where excellent hosts. We shall return,... More

used this pub a few times now for meals in the evening and have to say that the food is excellent, good choice on the menu and the prices do not break the bank, service is good, staff friendly, and bar area has been redecorated, well worth a visit.

This is a super place to relax. Friendly helpful staff, beautiful rooms & great food. Could not have asked for more. Would definitely recommend friends. It's an ideal location for exploring Northumberland. The views from our room The Durham were brilliant. We were really sad to leave after our 3 night stay. What lovely friendly people. I would definitely return.... More
