"Mrs Johnson is a delightful of host, exacting the highest standards of genuine levels of customer care, established procedures for booking, guest arrival, breakfast and departure. Very good locally produced ingredients make a substantial English breakfast appropriate to the type and style of business. The extensive healthy range of nuts, seeds, yoghurts and fresh fruits proving ever popular. Obvious pride taken in the cleaning and presentation of the guest rooms with sparking finishes."

"Picked Low Urpeth as very close to Beamish Museum. Best choice we could have made. Lovely and convenient location, views across countryside with Angel of the North in distance. Temperature outside may have been minus nine at times but didn't stop accommodation being warm and comfortable. As was the welcome from Hilary and Peter. Breakfast was an experience not to be missed with every choice you could want although we stuck to the full Low Urpeth breakfast. Some guests had cancelled due to the appalling weather they don't know what they missed. Personally I'd drive through a blizzard for another of Hilary's breakfasts."

"Have stayed for 4 nights. Would loved it to be longer. Have stayed in a number of hotels and B&B’s over the years. This has to be the best home from home feel. You couldn’t wish for more, the welcome, the selection of food, the history."
