Fodor's Expert Review Battlesteads Hotel

Hexham Rd., Wark, Hexham, Northumberland, NE48 3LS, England

10 miles north of Hexham and "beyond the wall," this delightful old inn combines three virtues: good food, cozy rooms, and eco-friendly credentials, with a string of awards to prove it. Bedrooms are simple but modern, with good-size bathrooms and a smattering of extras, such as free Wi-Fi and flat-screen TVs. Four rooms are fully wheelchair accessible. The restaurant uses produce grown in the hotel's own gardens, and is especially crowded on Sunday.
