From our front yard to your plate 🌿

Anne’s foraged rowan berries have become this beautiful ruby-red gel, made right here in the Boatside kitchen.

Perfect with our ham hock roulade — and with more venison dishes coming, these little jars will be in good company.

A little Nordic inspiration, a taste of Northumberland. Keep watching this space… 💙

Something worth coming in for. Who’s joining you?

“I’ll just have a cup of tea…” ☕🍰

Then someone mentions homemade, Nordic-inspired winter-spiced banana cake. And cream.

Pull up a chair by the fire. Your afternoon plans can wait. 🔥

“Gosh, what wonderful food!” 💙

Well done Anne and the team along with great food coming from the Kitchen 👏
What a lovely review from guests visiting Northumberland from London.

From pheasant and rump steak to Cumberland sausage and venison, we’re delighted our dishes went down so well. But their highlights? The genuinely friendly service and Anne’s homemade Finnish blueberry pie. 🫐

We’re proud to champion local produce and suppliers, cook from scratch and give our guests a warm Boatside welcome.

Thank you for taking the time to share such kind words—we’ll make sure the whole team sees them!

A little local sweetness. 🐝🍯

We’re delighted to be sourcing Garden House Honey from Mark Dowthwaite in Acomb—using it in our cooking and serving it at breakfast here at The Boatside Inn.

Great local produce deserves a place on our tables. Behind every jar is a local supplier we’re proud to support—and some very busy bees!

Small choices. Local connections. Delicious results. 💛

Today’s specials are made for autumn 🍂

Gluten-free sausages from North Acomb Farm Shop and a warming venison stew with dumplings—perfect after a crisp countryside walk.

Pull up a chair and let us take care of lunch or dinner.
