Loved this hotel and its location. Stayed in the garden room which was great with a dog. Right behind the hotel were fields and a river where we enjoyed lovely walks with our dog. The owner, George, and staff were very helpful. We ate in the pub because of the dog which sometimes was noisy but a minor thing overall. Would definitely stay again. Cragside was very close well worth a visit.

Great place to stay. I would definitely return!

Lovely stay. Food was excellent, both in the evening and at breakfast. The full english was very plentiful.
We had a family room and it did get very hot however. We turned the heating off completely but it was switched back on again when we went out for the day. On a freezing cold day this will be very welcoming but the temperature was very mild for the time of year so we didn't need the heating!

Great little inn in the heart of the beautiful Northumberland landscape. The owners and staff were ever so friendly and helpful, and the food was amazing! Rooms could do with a bit of a refurb but the owners have only just taken over the property and are planning to modernise very soon. Everything worked though, and we had a very comfortable stay. The view from the room was also to die for!

Great for food and a base for hiking.

There are some excellent walks straight from the the hotel and beautiful views over the garden to the Simonside Hills beyond the river. Nothing much else in Thropton, but Rothbury (2 miles) is a nice market town with a great pub (Narrow Nick).

Hotelcom & Three wheat heads contempt for customer

We arrived at the hotel to be met with signs saying that the restaurant would be closed. The hotel could have informed us of this before we booked (we phoned the hotel on saturday) or phoned us before we arrived at the hotel but instead they chose to treat us with complete contempt. I would have cancelled the stay if I had not need to be in Rothsbury that evening. Obviously if I had known that the restaurant was closed I would not have booked the hotel and booked an hotel elsewhere. The stunning view from the room overlooked solar panels. The missing kitchen staff seemed to be in the room next to ours (room 5 ) as we could smell their smoke and hear the sound of the DVD they were watching in preference to working in the restaurant. The room was hot but opening the window just exposed our room to the noise of the kitchen refridgerators units and air conditioning. Irony : Kitchen staff cannot work in hotel kitchen because they are too busy smoking and watching DVDs in the room next to customer. Irony: Customer denied catering facilities but has to endure sound of kitchen fridges and air conditioning. The Three Wheat Heads is the worst hotel that I have stayed in, and I have stayed in some very basic hotels in Morocco such as in Essouria and Erg Chebby

Best of Northumberland!

Do not expect to find this pub anywhere in or near Morpeth! The website seems unable to map the countryside! It is in THROPTON, which is a couple of miles from the rural market town of Rothbury. Beautiful area on edge of National Park, and an exceedingly welcoming and good value hostelry.
