My husband and I just got back from traveling through the UK for 12 days. Malcom was by far the best host we met along the way. He instantly was welcoming and helpful! Our room was fantastic and he had a porch, backyard, and deck available for use. He helped us use the internet when we needed to look something... More

We had called Malcom early in the day to let him know what time we would arrive and arranged to meet up in Gilsland. Much to our surprise, as we walked into town, a car pulled up and there was Malcom, who had been out in the rain trying to find us. Malcolm and Jenny are great hosts, very friendly,... More

This is the second year that my husband and I have hiked along Hadrian's Wall and a stayed at Bush Nook in Gilsland (May 2013). It is one of the nicest places to stay along the wall; the inn is a charming 200 year old house and barn recently beautifully restored with every modern convenience including a new hot tub... More

A rather belated review after staying at Bush Nook in December when walking Hadrians Wall. We stayed for 2 nights and couldnt have wished for a anything else. The room we stayed in was very comfortable and warm and cosy. The breakfast was excellent setting us up for a good days walk in the cold. Malcolm was a brilliant host... More

I stayed at the bush nook on Saturday 4th May 2013 until Sunday 5th May 2013. The room I was in was a spacious twin room with an ensuite bath/shower. It was lovely. There was even a little chocolate on the bed! They have very comfy fluffly robes in the cupboard!! I had the best night sleep in a while.... More

Although we weren't here long, we really enjoyed our stay. The owners were very friendly and helpful. The accommodation itself was nice and characterful but still modern, and we had nice views over the countryside.

We were part of a group of ten some of whom stayed 2 nights and some stayed 3 nights. We stayed 3 nights. The main purpose was to attend a family wedding at nearby Gretna Green. We had a warm welcome from Malcolm and the rest of his family. Malcolm was a mine of information and a very interesting character.... More

As a single guest who sought this B&B out during the Hadrian's Wall walk, I cannot sing the praises of Bush Nook - and Malcolm, its proprietor - enough. The facilities in the B&B were top notch, from an amazing - and consistently warm - room in the converted barn, replete with powerful shower (very important to me), to a... More

Having walked a decent length of Hadrian's Wall and made it to the Greenhead Hotel for a hearty meal and pint it was great to have Malcolm arrive for a lift back to the B&B. The friendly hospitality was topped off by an immaculate room with all the mod cons in a beautiful heritage building. The warm room had great... More
