]]> The Antinori family has been involved in the production of wine for over six centuries and is the 10th oldest company in the world. That’s an impressive twenty six generations, and under the current stewardship of Piero Antinori and his three daughters, the business is at the top of its game. Balancing courageous and innovative decisions while maintaining a fundamental respect for tradition and the land is never easy but this leader in Italian wine is thriving, and continues to be driven by its three guiding principles – tradition, passion and intuition.  Connor’s menu will include five delicious courses, paired to eight exception Antinori titles. The price is £75 per person.

]]> We are incredibly proud to be named ‘Best Pub Stay’ and be included in the The Times and The Sunday Times 100 Best Places to Stay in the UK 2025.  To quote The Times “Everyone rubbed their eyes in disbelief when news broke of this posh dining pub in the South Tyne Valley where, usually, sheep do all the eating”.  It is an incredible accolade and a phenomenal achievement and a true testament to the hard work, creativity and dedication of our entire team, who consistently go above and beyond to make every guest feel welcome.  Huge credit has to go to our “preternaturally” Head Chef, Connor Wilson who champions the amazing local produce, sustainability and seasonality.  Always taking the lead from our dedicated Northumberland farmers and gamekeepers.

A huge thank you to The Times and The Sunday Times for shining a light on our wonderful hidden gem. And to our loyal and new customers who have supported us and travelled from far and wide to give us a try; we trust we didn’t disappoint and look forward to welcoming you again soon.
