Newcastle House - Rothbury

We visited this pub on Friday 12th February in the evening.

The pub was quite busy.  The layout of the pub is quite long and narrow with tables in mainly straight lines.  The pub had a strange atmosphere, not feeling particularly friendly but equally not hostile.

It might be described as a typical town style pub.


The words used to describe the pub are:

  • Strange atmosphere
  • Mis-matched decor



Railway Hotel - Rothbury

We visited this pub on Friday 12th February 2016.  We thought the pub had been converted to an Indian restaurant, but found that the restaurant was upstairs and the pub was still in full operation.

The pub was a bit of a warren and looked quite old fashioned. (to be fair we were more interested in the Indian restaurant and although getting drinks from the pub, we didn't take much notice of the pub  )

The Turks Head - Rothbury

We visited this pub on 12th February 2016.

The pub was old-fashioned but lively.  One patron was strumming away on a guitar although his singing talents were questionable.

There was a roaring fire in the lounge and another one in the dining room which was laid out in a very regimented fashion.


The Turks Head

The words used to describe this pub are:

  • Old fashioned
  • Lively (although it was a Friday night)
  • Messy decor
