Review – The Lord Crewe Arms, Northumberland

Nestled on the border of Northumberland and County Durham in the sleepy village of Blanchland, you’ll find The Lord Crewe Arms – a dog friendly pub/hotel that blends the luxuries of a hotel with the laidback comfort and cosiness of a proper British pub. The Lord Crewe Arms is a sister property to two lovely hotels local to us in The Cotswolds Calcot Manor and The Painswick – so our expectations were high and the village really does have a bit of a feeling of The Cotswolds about it.

It’s one of those places you arrive at and instantly feel calm and ready to relax by the fire with the dogs at your feet, especially with the warm welcome given to the dogs at reception (there is an enormous tin of dog treats to help yourself to at Reception!). 

Our room had lots of character, with cosy blankets and even its own log burner, although it was a little too warm to light on the weekend we visited (we were tempted though). The room was a little on the small side, but perfectly good for a couple of nights with two dogs and a special mention must go to the incredibly comfortable bed – we slept very well!

Overall, we really loved our stay at the Lord Crewe Arms. They really do love dogs here and you’ll be guaranteed a warm welcome, great food and comfortable rooms.

Thanks for reading,
