The Shoulder of Mutton  

Tucked into Longhorsley in the Morpeth area, this compact inn sits in the city centre. It’s a great base for wandering local sights — Brinkburn Priory, Eshott Heugh Animal Park and Stanton Hall are all nearby. Perfect if you want easy town access and a quiet spot to return to.

A small property with just four guestrooms, each warmly decorated and stocked with a TV. Rooms vary by category but commonly include coffee/tea makers and irons. Mornings here are simple and good — sip a cup by the window and watch the town wake up.

There’s an on-site bar and restaurant plus a barbecue area with grills for casual outdoor hangs. A tour/ticket assistance desk helps book nearby excursions, and an elevator/lift makes the place accessible. Stop in for a drink, plan a day out, then relax back at the inn.

Enjoy satisfying meals at the hotel restaurant and unwind at the bar/lounge. Local flavours are featured on the menu, and simple comforts like morning coffee are easy with in-room coffee/tea makers or a cuppa by the window.
