About Rye Hill Farm
Anyone wanting a proper countryside break, rather than a base for ticking off tourist sights, will find Rye Hill Farm fits the bill. It's a working farm in Slaley, near Hexham, with a rustic guesthouse feel running through its four rooms, plus a cottage and a garden patio for sitting out. It suits couples, walkers and anyone travelling with a dog, since pets are welcome.
Rooms are country-style rather than polished hotel-standard, with drinks provided and breakfast included to set you up for the day. There's a bar and restaurant on site, so evenings don't require getting back in the car, and facilities extend to free WiFi, laundry service, luggage storage and free on-site parking. A lift and meeting rooms are also available, which is unusual for a farm B&B of this size.
Slaley itself is quiet, with a pub, restaurant and other eateries nearby for those who fancy a change from the on-site menu. Alston Moor Golf Club gives golfers a reason to venture out, and Riding Mill is a short drive away. It's a place built for slowing down rather than sightseeing at pace.

What guests say
We had a great stay at Rye Hill Farm. The room was large and comfortable and very clean. The cooked breakfast was delicious, as was the homemade bread and rhubarb compote. Our daughter loved seeing the lambs, chickens and ponies. We would love to come again. Thank you!

Lovely hotel, comfortable beds, spotlessly clean and a comforting breakfast. The host is so welcoming and friendly. We really enjoyed our stay and will return especially to see the lovely chickens roaming freely 🐓 💕

Owner Elizabeth very pleasant and friendly. Room too small with creaky floorboards and creaky uncomfortable bed and pillows terrible. Could hear people on toilet and shower. Small portion for breakfast not much choice of fruit juice or fruit and no beans on cooked breakfast and only one item of each. Although a pleasant stay was disappointed with breakfast and room and overvalued for what you got. Lovely location. Shame as was a pleasant stay overall but needs changes

Absolutely wonderful. Working farm about 10 mins, in car from Hexham. Room was clean and tidy, the, best I've ever had, views and walks are brilliant. The owner was very nice
