The Holly Bush Inn - a true Northumbrian gem.
Nestled beneath Europe's darkest skies in Greenhaugh, Tarset, The Holly Bush Inn is a charming 300-year-old drovers' inn with crackling log fires, a welcoming bar and real local character. Expect hearty home-cooked meals in the cosy restaurant, five rotating local real ales, fine whiskies, gins and a carefully chosen wine list.
Upstairs are six snug Four-Star en-suite bedrooms - three ideal for families or twin stays - plus one ground-floor accessible room. Well-behaved dogs are very welcome, and there is secure off-road parking for cyclists and bikers. Perfect for stargazing, walking, cycling and touring.
Whether you're here for the starry skies, the winding trails, or just a good pint by the fire, we can't wait to welcome you.

Moments from Kielder Water and Forest Park and the world-renowned
Kielder Observatory, this is prime Dark Sky country.
Hadrian's Wall and Cragside are within easy reach, alongside ancient castles, characterful market towns and Northumberland's unspoilt coastline.
This is Border Reiver country - the Tarset Bastle Trail begins in Greenhaugh, and scenic walks set off from the inn's doorstep. Quiet, sweeping roads delight motorcyclists and drivers, while families will find superb days out from castles to forest adventures.
