The Best B&Bs in Northumberland
Northumberland is one of England's most beautiful counties with its stunning coastline and equally impressive inland scenery including the Northumberland National Park and Kielder Forest. It's a vast and varied landscape which offers an equally eclectic range of accommodations, from luxury country house hotels to self catering cottages. However we think one of the best ways to experience the region is to stay in one of its best B&Bs. Here you'll get a very personal welcome and you'll find that friendly hosts are more than happy to pass on their invaluable local knowledge. Browse our pick of the best Northumbrian B&Bs and start planning your northern getaway.
