The Courtyard offers a warm farmhouse feel in the heart of Northumberland. Situated in Pegswood, the historic building which dates back to early-1900s, sits on the main route to Longhirst, once a home of. “Old King Cole”. Steeped in history, and influenced by the bistros of rural Italy, The Courtyard is certainly a place to visit.

    I recently had the pleasure of dining at The Courtyard, and I must say, the entire experience was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, with beautifully designed surroundings that added to the charm of the place. The service was outstanding—every member of the staff was attentive, friendly, and genuinely committed to ensuring we had the best possible experience. We never had to wait long for anything, and every request was met with a smile. As for the food, it exceeded all expectations. Each dish was expertly prepared, beautifully presented, and bursting with flavor. The ingredients were clearly fresh and of high quality, and the menu offered a wonderful variety to suit all tastes. Overall, The Courtyard is a true gem. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or simply looking for a memorable meal, I would highly recommend this place to anyone seeking top-notch cuisine and first-class service in a stunning place. Thankyou ever so much.

    The Courtyard is such a beautiful building & has the friendliest staff I have ever encountered. We attended for wine flights & ordered one of each snack plate to share between the four of us. The snack plates were all fresh, decent sized portions & each one was as tasty as the other. The wine flights were delicious & extremely good value for money (£15 for 3) we chose the mixed flight of red, rose & white however there is an option of 3 white &/or 3 red. The restaurant had a calming presence & we are itching to attend again very soon. Highly recommend!

    First visit here and had I not lived over 5 hours drive away it certainly wouldn't be my last , had booked a table for Sunday lunch . The location seemed a bit odd being in a residential area but on entering the restaurant you are immediately impressed with the quality of decor and furnishings etc. We were seated upstairs which is spacious and decorated to a high standard, the toilets definitely were definitely a 10/10 for cleanliness Now down to the excellent food (Sunday lunch) which exceeded expectations went for the roast beef and roast potatoes (mash is an option) great selection of vegetables included and the best Yorkshire pudding I have ever tasted. If you are wanting a fantastic Sunday lunch this has to be the place to go . The staff were extremely friendly and helpful.

    Lovely restaurant. Friendly. Service was very slow but we were given an apology and drinks. Three out of four meals were very nice.

    Very friendly and accommodating restaurant. Great food, excellent facilities and very attentive and caring staff. I booked a table for family to celebrate my wife's 60th birthday and the staff could not have been more helpful. We will definitely dine there again.
