Our favourite rooms
A reflection of the landscape beyond the walls, individually dressed rooms here are layered with nature-inspired tones, a vintage feel and thoughtfully-curated comfort that assures you of a restful stay. At The Old Rectory, bag the upstairs room overlooking the front garden, which has a freestanding bath tub for undisturbed soaks. At the Inn, the dual-aspect South Tyne View room has our hearts: views across the magnificent valley, dusky-pink walls and antique furniture lend it primed-for-romance allure.
Spa
There’s no spa at The Kirstyle Inn & Sportsman’s Rest, but staff can arrange for therapists to deliver facial or massage treatments in your room or at The Old Rectory.
Packing tips
Golf clubs for a round at 36-hole Close House; all-season outdoorsy threads for the non-golfers.
Also
The Kirkstyle Inn is on the Pennine Way — a national walking trail along England’s spine that stretches from the Peak District in Derbyshire all the way to the Scottish border.
Pet‐friendly
Canine friends are free to warm their paws by the fire in The Kirkstyle Inn’s bar. Pups delight in their ‘doggie welcome pack’, and a maximum of two can stay in most rooms, as well as at The Old Rectory next door, where there’s a fenced garden. See more pet-friendly hotels in Northumberland.
Children
Welcome. The six-bedroom Old Rectory is ideal for families. Three out of four rooms at the Inn take an extra bed, and a travel cot and highchair are available on request.
Sustainability efforts
A considered environmental approach is found at The Kirkstyle Inn. In the kitchen, food is locally sourced, with provenance assured through relationships with farmers and game keepers. Time is spent fermenting and jarring to ensure produce is available in colder months. Compostable packaging is selected wherever possible, and cleaning products are chemical-free. In the bathroom you’ll find natural and sustainably-made products from just across the Pennines in Cumbria, and pillows and duvets are filled with Fair Trade down. Even the dog treats are sustainable.
