On an overcast turned rainy weekday, we and our dogs were given such an utterly warm welcome (and some ham treats!) by both Hilary’s that along with such charming decoration, it felt like we had arrived at a good friends house.
The homemade soup (as was recommended by some equally friendly locals who had just finished theirs) was fresh and warming. Chatting away with the friendly locals who kept arriving, and were all clearly regulars; we felt like we were part of a small community. You know a place must be good when nearby residents visit regularly.
The tea and cake desert though were simply divine, the Biscotti Cheesecake portion was as generous as it was delicious.
When driving to the Canny Cuppa we actually missed the entrance first time as Google maps doesn’t have the entrance right; it made it look like you drive straight into it, off the A1.

A hidden gem off the beaten track, if you're visiting Northumberland make...

Cute little cottage feel, although just off the main road it's quite peaceful when sat out. We sat outside but was assured we could bring our dog in. As soon as they knew we had a dog, treats were offered instantly and made my fur baby feel as welcomed as we were! Food is delicious, homemade which is even better with great friendly service. Pop in, you won't be disappointed at all and we will certainly be visiting on our...
