Across recent reviews, The Blue Bell Inn stands out for warm, friendly service, very comfortable rooms with good showers, and consistently praised breakfasts and dinners that many guests describe as generous, tasty, and good value.
Guests highlight a cosy pub and appreciate the on site cottage with a full kitchen and laundry, plus dog friendly touches. A few note small single rooms, occasional maintenance niggles, a bright fire exit light or warm rooms, and some traffic noise in front rooms near the A697. It suits stopovers and exploring Northumberland and the Borders.

We stopped in for a night in our way back home from Scotland. The cottage provides plenty of room for a family and has a living area and full kitchen with washing machine. Parking is easy and plentiful. We had dinner in the pub as well, which was good pub food and there is a good kids menu.

We stayed in the cottage for one night as a break on our journey to Aberdeenshire from Hampshire. The cottage is lovely, very clean and even has a fuzeball table which our teenage sons loved. We received a warm welcome including our dog. There are TVs in all the rooms and a very well equipped kitchen. If you don’t want to cook, try the food in the pub, that also was excellent and great value.

I stayed here for three nights B&B. My room was clean and appeared to have been renovated and decorated in recent times. The room had a double and single bed making it a little cramped. The bathroom was modern with an easy to operate shower. Being at the front of the pub, there was some noise from the A697. Breakfast was included in the price, and was excellent along with the service. I had one evening meal here which took was excellent.

The check-in was easy. We arrived around 8:00 and asked about eating dinner. They stated as long as we got done there before 8:30. Breakfast was included, but we were leaving prior to serving time (we were leaving at 7:00). No discount or other options for a "to go" breakfast were offered. The room was extremely hot, but a fan was provided in the room which was nice. The shower was outstanding! The beds were comfortable.

The dinner and breakfast were both, substantial and good quality. The staff were friendly and chatty. The quality of the room was excellent, although the bright fire exit sign didn't aid dropping off to sleep and the bathroom heated towel rail wasn't on, so the bathroom was cold. I didn't see the area around the property so i couldn't comment.

The room including the en-suite shower room were decorated to a very good standard. My only issue which was more of an Expedia problem was that the location was not as close to the postcode area that I entered, therefore was a further travel than I expected. However the hotel and accommodation provided was very good.

Solo walking trip around Lindisfarne and Berwick. Booked for 2 nights and couldn’t have been happier! Really friendly and helpful staff, cheapest accommodation in the area that I could find which is always a bonus! Well situated not far from Coldstream on the English/Scottish Border and about 30 mins drive from Lindisfarne. Free breakfast included and the room was cleaned daily. Bed in single room may need to be changed soon as it seems to be on the way out but still slept fine nonetheless. Very happy with my stay!

We stopped in for a night in our way back home from Scotland. The cottage provides plenty of room for a family and has a living area and full kitchen with washing machine. Parking is easy and plentiful. We had dinner in the pub as well, which was good pub food and there is a good kids menu.

Great place. Wonderful dinner and breakfast. Staff friendly and helpful. Little things like loose shelving and dripping shower need a little work.

We stayed here for two nights. The room was spacious and comfortable, the breakfast was excellent and the dinner was better than the averaged pub food. We would return!

We were pleasantly surprised with our room,it was of good size and and airy with a view of the garden.The shower was amazing - large,easy to use and good pressure.The breakfast would have fed a family and was beautifully cooked and presented. The only drawback to our stay was the evening meal on our last night,the meal arrived after we had waited a considerable time,the mashed potato potato was dry and lumpy and the pie overcooked.The place was very busy and had minimal staff which I felt was a major contribution to this problem.Overall our stay was enjoyable and the staff were great,pleasant and friendly.Yes,I would stay again and intend to in the immediate future

Our first time at the Blue Bell, but won’t be our last! Really comfortable beds and pillows in a nice room with a lovely new bathroom. Food was excellent and all the staff, from Keith , the landlord, down, are friendly, kind and helpful, and all were happy in their jobs. We will be back!

Staff were very friendly and helpful. The place is a little gem and the evening meal very acceptable and value for money. Breakfast was good in the main apart from a bit of grease being noticed. Our room was comfy and dark , a little noisy at times as guests arrived and departed but overall we would gladly stay again.
