Discover Award Winning Dining Just Minutes from Quality Cottage

Tucked away in the charming village of Warden and only a short walk from the doorstep of Quality Cottage, the Boatside Inn has just earned a well deserved spot in the culinary spotlight. This historic Northumberland pub has recently been awarded its first AA Rosette, a nationally recognised mark of excellence in food and service.

With over two centuries of history behind it, the Boatside Inn has long been a favourite with locals and visitors alike. Its legendary bacon sandwiches and comforting Sunday roasts have earned it a loyal following, and now with this new accolade, it is firmly on the map for anyone seeking great food in a relaxed and welcoming setting.

Whether you fancy a quiet pint in the garden, a relaxed midweek lunch or a memorable evening meal, the Boatside delivers quality and charm in equal measure. The pub is also preparing to launch an exciting new summer menu, offering fresh seasonal flavours to complement its traditional favourites.

For guests staying at Quality Cottage, the Boatside Inn is a perfect local gem to enjoy during your stay. Stroll down for a drink by the fire or make an occasion of it with a full meal. Either way, it is an experience not to be missed.

We are thrilled to have such a fantastic destination on our doorstep and proud to share it with our guests.
