This pub is super stylish, yet totally relaxed and is right on the doorstep of the Northumberland National Park. In terms of location, William de Percy benefits from being on the doorstep of peaceful countryside, while equally not being too far off the beaten track. Located in the Northumberland village of Otterburn, The William de Percy Coaching Inn and Crêperie lies on the picturesque banks of the River Rede which is well-known for trout and salmon fishing.
If you fancy exploring the surrounding countryside, a favourite of walkers and equestrians is the 2-mile gently sloping Otterburn Village Trail, which starts and finishes at the nearby Otterburn Mill. This is a great way to explore the countryside with opportunities to see the local wildlife including moorland birds, wild goats and sometimes the rare black grouse. Otter footprints can also be spotted in the mud along the banks of the River Rede.
Four-legged friends are a very big deal at William de Percy, where the breathtaking countryside is heaven on earth for any creature with fur, four legs and a wet nose. From Dachshunds to Dalmatians, Chihuahuas to Catahoula leopard dogs (yes, really!), this pub loves them all and there’s always room at the Inn for them.
The William de Percy Coaching Inn and Crêperie menus are packed with all the usual, and a lot of the unusual, pub paraphernalia but with an added sprinkle of edible oomph. The menus are packed with good hearty food, added with some quirky flavours that you won’t be able to resist. From dishes such as “The biggest fish the boat could safely land” to “Pork belly with spiced apple, and Yuzu Compote, Pak Choi and Hoi sin gravy”.
