The Lindisfarne Inn

ANOTHER stay at this fabulous, dog friendly hotel - if you’re looking for a fabulous meal, comfortable bed and a warm welcome, this is the one! We arrived to be greeted by Mikey, who was very friendly ( as are all the staff) and booked us in for dinner. We chose the very tasty venison and haggis sausage roll and a honey roasted carrot and mozzarella salad - both were fabulous. For mains we had the burger and fish and chips - very generous portions and again, excellent quality and speedy, efficient service. So lovely to dine with our little dog! At breakfast there had been an emergency and the restaurant was busy - heart warming to see the staff helping out at a very hard time. Well done to all the staff, and I can heartily recommend a stay here if you’re ever in the area. Can’t wait to visit again!

Lindisfarne Inn is such a wonderful place to stay! When we arrived for our three-night visit, breakfast was included- what a lovely treat! There was a delightful variety to choose from: cereals, toast, fruit juice, yogurts, fresh fruit, continental options, or a hearty full cooked breakfast- there really was something for everyone. We were warmly greeted, and the service was absolutely fantastic. The team was exceptional; they made us feel truly cared for, and nothing was too much trouble. Our room was perfectly clean, warm, and cosy, with super comfortable beds. |During our stay, it was my birthday. Although my friend brought the cake, the staff went above and beyond- coming out to sing and celebrate with cake in hand! We're already looking forward to coming back.

Peaceful location, warm, friendly staff who seemed happy in their working environment.|The chalet style accommodation, separate from the main building, somehow seemed the most comforting and snug stop of our stay (walking, so a different accommodation each night).|Dinner was excellent, with lots of choices including not only a couple of fish dishes on the main menu, but also two other fresh fish choices on the specials. |We also tried the banoffee pie, delicious although it did have a side like a pie, not come across that before and it was a bit hard to cut through.|Breakfast was again delicious with plenty of choice including freshly cooked hot food. I enjoyed the Eggs Royale. |Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Just been in for dinner. The two ladies behind the bar were so friendly and helpful. Two of us had lamb which was absolutely delicious and cooked to perfection. One of us had the chorizo and prawn fricassee which was also nice. Followed by apple cheesecake yum and two apple and blackberry crumbles with custard. Delicious! Nice beer too, Alpacalypse and a pint of Dales Brewery bitter. We've been here several times over the last few years when we holiday in Northumberland and we've always received a warm welcome, friendly service and great food. We'll definitely return. We also loved the wall of doggy photos. 😀

This is a great place to stay. The rooms are spacious and very clean. The staff are super friendly and helpful. We couldn’t fault the food. It was freshly cooked and delicious. I’d highly recommend Lindisfarne Inn. It’s proximity to Holy Island make it an ideal place to stay. A big thank you to the staff. You were all lovely.

Fantastic hotel/restaurant perfect for visiting Lindisfarne and Northumberland. Rooms were clean and comfortable with en-suite shower room. Food was very good and a good selection of drinks available at the bar. An excellent breakfast set us up for walking around Lindisfarne

I arrived after a long drive and was very tired. I was greeted with a smile and kindness. My room was cosy and the bed comfortable. I went for dinner, and the food was hot and delicious. After a good night's sleep, I went down for breakfast. What a fantastic array of food was available. Everything was fresh. I had a cooked breakfast. The team were so welcoming and I look forward to my next stay. Thank you for the care you showed this weary traveller..

This is a great pub and restaurant - a perfect stop over when travelling. Kat was the perfect host who simply couldn't do enough to help us - very welcoming, attentive and helpful. Mikey at the bar was also alert and very helpful. Amrish and Robyn in the kitchen produced high level, beautiful and very tasty dinners in a sharp and professional manner - thoroughly enjoyable. I encourage anyone to visit this Inn for the welcoming warm atmosphere and of course for the impressively good quality food.

We were making the long (6 hours or so) drive from home to Edinburgh for a few days. We were starting to feel hungry, probably still two hours drive to go and luckily passed this nice looking pub by the side of the road. Not exactly in the middle of nowhere but fairly remote. Found somewhere to pull over and turn around after5 minutes drive. Called to make sure that the kitchen was still open (mid afternoon) and headed back. The staff were young an friendly, service was good and my creamy fish pie and a glass of cider were tasty and satisfying. It was now late afternoon (about 4-4:30) and I had seen a road sign for a castle - so I looked on Google and discovered that we were just minutes from Holy Island: https://www.lindisfarne.org.uk/ Couldn't resist - so off we drove, pretty landscape and beautiful views once we had crossed the busy train track. Then we got the crossing to the island and realized for the first time that access was determined by the tides and the tide was clearly coming in. Stopped for a quick chat with two photographers getting ready to take pics and ascertained that we had better be back in 15 minutes or we could get trapped - so off we went, quick visit of the beautiful island, took a few pics (of course we couldn't stop for long) and crossed back within about 20 minutes - we likely had another 10-15 minutes to be honest before we would have been cut off - but Edinburgh awaited us :) Three thumbs up Definitely visit bot the pub and the island but check tidal times before deciding which to do first!

Have been for a meal here several times, and have never been disappointed. Imaginative food, great service, and reasonable prices too

We visited this pub for lunch after leaving Holy Island. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Service was prompt. I had scampi which was nice but the chips were clearly frozen and a bit dry. My partner had shoulder of lamb which was very good with nice fresh veg. Kids meals also seemed OK - usual selection. Didn't try puddings but they looked good.

The inn is alright on the bedding side, but the staff is not very helpfull. The waitress did not break a smile for the 4 days spent there ( nor at breakfast or dinner) and the food is desperately pub stiyle. Fine is you enjoy a fish and chip the size of a shoe box but impossible to get something not deep fried. Even when ask for substitution the green come as decoration ( one leaf of uncooked call to replace the rice really?) and do not dare to ask for yogurt in the morning without passing for a snob.
