Thropton Hotels with Wi-Fi

We'd seen a couple of negative reviews about this restaurant but we're staying locally so decided to try it anyway, and we are so pleased we did!! We hadn't booked, and on arrival we were told there may be a short delay as they were hosting a large party. We were shown to our table and brought drinks whilst we perused the menu. Our orders were taken quickly and our food arrived about 10 minutes later. My husband started with leek & potato soup (very nice) and for main, liver & bacon (one of his favourites), which was cooked to perfection. I had pan fried salmon which was delicious. We finished with coffee. The staff were great, attentive and friendly and are certainly not deserving of the negative reviews. We had a lovely evening and I would definitely recommend visiting the Three Wheat Heads if you're in the area, you won't be disappointed.

We stayed in Demoiselle shepherd’s hut in early July. The area is so peaceful and private and the hut had everything you would need. The welcome basket was a lovely touch. On the first day we walked up Simonside Hills (although had to abandon because of the wind) and on the second day walked 20 minutes into Thropton and got the bus into Rothbury. Emma and Tim are great hosts and our stay was faultless.
