About The Half Moon Inn
Woodhorn Museum is within easy reach of Ashington, and the Northumberland Coast is close enough for a day trip, making The Half Moon Inn a useful base for exploring both the area's mining heritage and its beaches. The inn itself sits on Half Moon Street in the centre of town, with parking on site for anyone arriving by car.
There are four rooms, each with an en-suite bathroom, and the inn keeps things straightforward with free WiFi, drinks available in room, and 24 hour reception for guests coming and going at odd hours. Breakfast is served in the morning, and the on-site restaurant and bar cover food and drink later in the day, with outdoor seating in the garden when the weather allows.
Beyond the inn itself, Ashington has its own pubs, bars and restaurants nearby, along with entertainment options within easy reach for evenings out. Pets are welcome, which suits anyone travelling with a dog for coastal walks. It's a traditional, no-frills setup rather than a destination in itself, best suited to those using Ashington as a starting point for the surrounding coast and countryside.
