The Courtyard Coffee Shop, located between Beadnell Hall and Beadnell Caravan Site, will be managed by mum and daughter duo, Ruth and Abi Hall.

The pair have decided to find their feet in their new venture by opening from 9am-3pm, but have plans to open for longer hours in the busier months when the village is buzzing with tourists.
The two-floor cafe, which has been converted from an old garage, has the capacity to seat hundreds of customers each day, and will be dog friendly for those visiting Northumberland with their four-legged friends.
Inspiration to open the cafe came when Abi began a baking business during the Covid-19 lockdown, selling cakes and tray bakes for birthdays, christenings and other occasions.

Abi, 20, said: “After making cakes throughout lockdown, I’m so pleased to be able to sell them in our own coffee shop.”
