Convenient location near Newcastle bus and coach station for exploring the district by public transport.

“Borough Arms strikes me as exceptionally well-managed, particularly notable given its welcoming and helpful staff. The value here is undeniable, delivering clean and comfortable rooms, and what seems to be a very popular breakfast. Its location near transport links makes it a practical choice in Newcastle-under-Lyme.”
