Welcome to the "Ruff Guide"

Welcome to Ask the Border Terrier site which can help you to plan a holiday and get the most out of staying in Northumberland.


Let our local knowledge help search out the best range of options to suit your family or party of people. We can help you to see things that other visitors miss, help get you to places that some people did not know event existed! You can drive around in your own car, at your leisure; stop off where you want to spend more time and make the best of all opportunities.

We have castles, battlefields, Roman remains, early settlements, walking, and sight seeing, and visits to local food producers. We can help you plan for summer, autumn, winter or spring; suggest the most appropriate accommodation choice for you, suggest places to eat out and most of all things to see and do that you have expressed an interest in. We provide a service for groups or individuals, just bear in mind that the larger the group the more diverse their interests so small is quite often best when it comes to personalised visits.

Our charges are reasonable, our advice is good, our knowledge is local and WE want YOU to enjoy your visit. Have a look through at what we offer, fill out your form and we will post out to you the contacts and suggestions. Don’t worry if you have already booked accommodation, we make nothing out of our recommendations so you are free to book whatever suits you. We can, however add value to your visit by offering our tailor made service to your holiday requirements. Just ask The Border Terrier!
