“I have been in touch with Northumberland Council about the disabled bay”
+Spacious room, good kitchen facilities and good to be right near the bridge. Lovely fluffy towels, nice toiletries. Decent bedding, no bath mat so i used the small towel. Net curtains were a bit grubby.
−A damp smell in room. The reception was very cold & abrupt as if I was causing an inconvenience to the owner. I'd already been vilified for parking in the disabled space on the street (as a disabled person which was nothing to do with the proprietor yet he made it his business to tell me I was in the wrong). Brian had assumed I'd just parked there, telling me "I can't park there without a badge"- I'm a blue badge holder thank you, which is why I parked there. The assumption that I'd done this as a non-disabled person was quite the unwelcome I didn't need. Exhausted from my drive & in pain,I'd already been ushered out of the space by the resident who told me that the disabled bay was reserved as exclusive use for her daughter. I wasn't prepared to play a game of top trumps of disability in the street, degrading myself, so politely agreed to move as she hawk-watched me, as a space had become available over the other side. To add insult to injury, Brian then explained to me that he was also a blue badge user & that he thought bays were time limited to 3 hours. I informed him of the rules that they are supposed to be there for the disabled person in need who needs them at the time, whi

“Superb value for money - large room, clean, comfy and a top class host.”
+A large, clean room with all the facilities you could ask for. A good self service breakfast with everything you need. The location was central to the shops, pubs, restaurants and the river, so spot on. Brian as a host was superb, helpful and informative. He arranged an evening meal at a recommended restaurant that had told me they were full! I was touring by motorbike and he even lent me a large lock and chain to add to the security on my bike whilst parked on street. As for value for money, it’s right up there with the best I’ve ever had in this country.
−Only two small things: on street parking is a not ideal if you’re on an expensive motorbike, but the area is low crime and with the extra security Brian lent me, no big deal. Secondly, I stayed on a Saturday night and the Railway Inn right opposite was playing music until quite late.

“Northumberland hidden gem! A great stay.”
+A two night stay at The Reading Rooms and this was perfect for my needs. Easy to find and located in the centre of Haydon Bridge. Although there was no private parking with the accommodation, there was plenty of free on-street parking nearby. Despite my coming and going from the property, I was pretty much able to park at the front door throughout my stay and never felt challenged with the parking. The Reading Rooms as the name suggests was built for that purpose and as a building, came with its own little piece of local history. There's plenty of information about that on site should you be interested. I stayed in room 3 which was a double room with en-suite bathroom. The room was of a very good size with plenty of space. The double bed was very comfortable and I slept like a baby on both nights of my stay. Cleanliness of the room and throughout the rest of the building was faultless. What was really nice was to have access to a kitchen and separate dining area. Great if like me you're travelling for work and don't want to be forced into eating out or want to get something local and have somewhere to bring it back to and sit and eat in comfort. With that in mind, on arrival I was
−Staying a little longer would have been better other than that, it was a very pleasant stay.
