With a rugged coastline, beautiful beaches, and plenty of remote countryside to explore - this is a walker's paradise.

With this in mind, our hotel experts have compiled a list of the best pubs with rooms in Northumberland. Whether you like your pub gastro-chic or rather a more traditional stay - there is plenty to choose from. So why not browse through our list to start planning your break?
