The Red Lion is in Newbrough 4.5 miles from one of UNESCO World Heritage Sites Hadrian's Wall in Northumberland. Newbrough is a quiet and pretty village which lies on the north bank of the South Tyne river about 5 miles (8km) west of Hexham.

The pub, of which is one of Newbrough's oldest buildings, a hostelry dating back to 1190's is on the Stanegate Roman road, built in A.D. 71, runs from east to west and formed the original northern frontier before the building of Hadrian's wall.

The Red Lion has been brought back into the 21st Century with all the charm of a country-side bed and breakfast.  A spacious area to drink, with its original wood and stonework, open log fires and comfortable chairs.  Our bar has locally sourced ales and our wine comes from all over the world.  The Red Lion prides itself on providing very high quality, delicious food.  The menu is seasonal, and the produce is locally sourced with home grown vegetables. Freshly cooked with a twist.

We have 6 ensuite letting bedrooms and can accommodate 14 people.  We have one family room which can accommodation 2 adults and 2 children,1 double/single, 1 king-size and 3 rooms which can be either twins or doubles. (Our beds can be linked together to create doubles)

We have our very own heritage centre called the Stanegate Room with takes a look back in time at what our village was like many years ago.

The Red Lion is ideally situated on the National Cycle Network, with the popular Route 72 passing directly in front of the pub and the Sandstone Way.  This can provide a welcome and refreshing break for weary cyclists.  There are also a several other cycle routes around the area as well as a reliable rail network linking various routes around the country.  We can provide secure bike storage, maps, packed lunches available on request and laundry facilities.
