Country Pubs???HELP!

Hi everyone just had a call from my boyfriend saying he fancies going to a country side pub for lunch....but WHERE????
He's left it up to me to decide but I don't know anywhere because neither of us are from round here!

Can anyone suggest anywhere nice and not too far a drive.

The badger in Ponteland is nice

Go to the Ridley Arms in Stannigton - on way to Morpeth

wicked sunday dinners.

do i head up the A19 then turn off at an obvious place???
will look in A to Z

Stannington is just off the A1.

right ok thanks, just trying to find places its weird when you don't know anywhere really

Yeah! The bangers n mash were

I often goto a place called The Carts Bogg Inn, its just off the A69, right next Plankey Mill in Hexham. Food there is absolutelty amazing

are these places reasonably priced??only asking coz watching the pennies at the mo

Ridley Arms is about 7.50 for a roast.

Worth it though

that sounds well good, just off the A1 then?fairly obvoius? sorry to ask like billions of questions but I've got a cold at the mo and my navigation and awareness flies out the window!

Yes if you drive up A1 towards Morpeth, there is a turn off for Stannington on the left. Just come off there, little village, you will see the pub.

Thank you thank you!!

the badger also sounds nice though....now i'm confused well will ask the boy whenever he arrives!

still open to any more suggestions though for future reference.I like learning about places I don't know
