A guide to accommodation in Northumberland

Stay here

Once you stay in Northumberland, you’ll never want to leave. From homely to high-end, family-friendly to romantic, and dog friendly to downright cosy, come and sleep beneath the stars, warm your toes by an open fire, or curl up in a cosy log cabin.

Where to stay in Northumberland

From coastal to countryside, remote to romantic, and boutique to B&B, Northumberland has accommodation to suit every style of stay.

Go off-grid in a rustic glamping hut, put your feet up at a family-run B&B, have the whole space to yourself in a log-burner lodge, or treat yourself to a luxury spa stay.

We have family-friendly hotels (and, yes, that includes the dog), couples’ retreats, unique stays, and self-catering hideaways across the county.

Choose from our hand-picked accommodation for your stay, from the beautiful village of Bamburgh, one of the best places to stay in Northumberland, to the coastal town of Amble and the historic market towns of Alnwick and Hexham. Head to the wilds of Otterburn, disconnect in Kielder Water & Forest Park or enjoy a stay alongside the River Coquet in Warkworth.
