We had an amazing stay. The room was perfect with so much attention to detail and all the little extras - from fresh milk, homemade biscuits, fabulous toiletries to books and music. The Kirkstyle Gin was delicious and our meal and wines were wonderful all served by excellent, knowledgeable staff. A perfect break with great views.

I couldn’t fault the Kirkstyle Inn and Sportsman’s Rest; beautiful location, superb accommodation, extraordinary food and great service. We travelled over three hours to get there and weren’t disappointed. The staff were extremely friendly and knowledgeable about the food, beer and wine. The pigeon pie with cherry and pigeon gravy was to die for, and the darling blue cheese pannacotta with plum and walnut a work of alchemy. My wife and I had a fantastic time and couldn’t stop talking about it on the way home - we are already planning our return!

Excellent spot to relax, enjoy a drink and feast in the taster menu. We stayed in the South Tyne room with lovely views across the river. Room was immaculate and had everything we needed. We really enjoyed the tasting menu and wine flight. Food was really good, well presented and served with a smile by very knowledgeable and friendly staff. Wine flight picked by Alex was lovely as well and Alex was his usual charming helpful self. It was great to see him again. Nice breakfast in the morning before a special drive home over some stunning roads.

We stayed as a gift. And what a gift. The location is breathtaking and accessible to the best Northumbria has to offer. The food was exceptional. We had the 10 course taster menu, and ever course was later upon later of taste sensation. But above all else the welcome, service and chat with the staff. Knowledgeable about the food, the wine and of course the local area. Always willing, with warmers and humour, to help and made our stay perfect.

We had a night here recently and enjoyed dinner, bed and breakfast. We stayed in the Knarburn room which was beautiful. Big comfortable bed, lovely bathroom and gorgeous views. Dinner was delicious, the sweetbread starter and Guinea fowl pie were highlights for me. Breakfast was also great and very generous. Everyone working at the Kirkstyle were lovely, they checked in on us but without being overbearing. They were also very welcoming of our boisterous dog! Can’t wait to come back
