"Lovely Hotel in Idyllic Setting"
Arrived late afternoon. Was greeted by Malcolm the friendly owner who happily brought our bags to our rooms. He then recommended a fine local pub/restaurant for dinner and made reservations (Greenhead Hotel.. probably the best restaurant nearby). Breakfast in the morning was home cooked and enjoyed in the conservatory. Left around 10am feeling rested and refreshed. Read less

Dating back to 1760, with further additions in 1811 and 1849, Bush Nook was a working farm until the 1950's. Providing quality accommodation in a traditional farm house setting, with an accredited Visit Britain 4 Star establishment.

We can provide home cooked evening meals for groups of 6 to 12, with predominantly local ingredients and produce which includes local lamb, beef and dairy products along with a drinks menu providing a wide range of wines, spirits and soft drinks. Dinners should be booked in advance with prior notice of any special dietary needs. In recent years Bush Nook has appeared on several TV programmes including Britain's Best Breaks, The Wall as well as on BBC Radio 4's food show and has been featured in Cumbria Life magazine and the travel sections of many national newspapers.

All rooms are ensuite many having open-beamed ceilings with digital TV and radio, WiFi is available in the main House. Guests can rest and relax in the 'quiet' lounge or the delightful conservatory. There is also a recently converted, superbly equipped self-catering cottage in the Hay Barn, sleeping two to four people which can also be made available as a luxury 'suite' on a B & B basis.

Overlooking Birdoswald Roman Fort and close to the 'centre' and best-preserved sections of Hadrian's Wall, Bush Nook is situated right on the Cumbria/Northumberland boundary, halfway between the towns of Haltwhistle and Brampton and is only half a mile off the A69.

The fascinating Roman archaelogical centre of Vindolanda and Roman Army Museum are within easy reach along the Military Road, Housesteads, Corbridge and Chesters also an easy drive. Ideally situated to explore the area which is a hidden treasure of England with beautiful scenery and the largely unexplored area of the English borders, the Northumberland National Park, the North Pennines and the Eden Valley. We are easily accessible to Carlisle and the M6 to the West and Newcastle and the A1 to the East.
