    Great views and lovely breakfast. Friendly and talkative host 😊 only a 5 minute drive away from the centre or half an hour walk.

    We had a lovely stay at this converted mill B&B. Our host Susan was very friendly, helpful & interesting as well. The property was quiet, just the sound of the water from the small but swift river that runs alongside the property. We ate plums...

    The owner Susan went out of her way to make us feel at home, nothing was any trouble. The setting and location were perfect.

Susan
Dilston Mill is a converted historic watermill on the banks of Devils Water, but near to Hexham, Corbridge and Hadrian's Wall. With 'Dark Skies' above and a peaceful waterside garden, the Mill is also on a public footpath. With homely and comfortable decor, you can relax or use it as a base to explore the beautiful countryside or lively local towns or busy Newcastle-Gateshead, Durham, coastline or the 'Borders' with Scotland.
