Have stayed there before - pre Covid. Very helpful owner, Brian, gives you the freedom of the place and its facilities. Kitchen is well stocked with a variety of breakfast foods. It's just like a home from home.

Great welcome, great location, clean rooms and kitchen/dining area. Good food recommendation for the pub opposite. Just be aware that there are limited food options in town on a Wednesday evening (although the fish and chips were great), if you want something more you'll have to travel.

We loved our stay at the Reading Rooms. Brian, one of the hosts, went out of his way to accommodate us. The room was lovely, homey, and spotless. The kitchen and laundry rooms were clean and available and the location couldn't be better. We would return anytime we are in the area. We highly recommend The Reading Rooms.

Great place in lovely setting.

This is a great place in a pleasant village, nice spacious room, with plenty free street parking. Decent free wifi and good local amenities, nice greeting by one of the owners, Brian, who offered the facilities of the kitchen at my disposal, very much appreciated. If i was going to be picky, the numerous spiders in the hallway could be cleared out (i have a phobia) and the towels in the shower would benefit from being bigger and softer, you can make tea/coffee in your room but had to go downstairs to the kitchen fridge for the milk, but these are small things that wouldnt stop me from staying again.

Superb B&B in Northumberland

This is an amazing B&B that you can use as a base for exploring Hadrian's Wall. Brain & Gill are great hosts. The room is great with a kettle, tea and coffee. Breakfast is self-service, and you have a nice selection of cereals, fruit, juice, milk, bread, coffee, and tea. All that you need to get started. You can use the kitchen later in the day if you want to cook your own meals instead of the outside option. Fully recommend.

Brian, the owner, shared so much information with us about Hadrian’s Wall and the surrounding area. He was a delightful raconteur. He even drove us to Hadrian’s Wall himself in order to help us out. His advice about where to go was spot on and made our day wonderful. Even though we had checked out, he let us store our bags at the B&B. The hotel itself was extremely convenient and close to the train station. The view of the river was lovely. I would highly recommend this spot if you come to Northumberland!

A comfortable stay

Well situated for a visit to the Wall and Roman remains, this was a very pleasant stay. Very quiet - surprisingly so, for its placement on a corner. Brian recommended The Havelock for dinner, and it was delicious!

The Reading Rooms is an excellent place to stay. The host is friendly and hospitable; and the property is spotlessly clean throughout. I would definitely stay here again… and highly recommend The Reading Rooms without hesitation.
