About us

Established in the early 1700's as an old coaching Inn, the much loved public house has recently undergone an extensive refurbishment.

The Diamond Inn is located in the heart of Ponteland with a country Pub feel, that offers a wide range of Real Ales, real food, and a real atmosphere! We are popular with locals and tourists alike for our friendly smile and warm welcome!

We have a large selection of beers, wine and spirits that can be enjoyed in our spacious & comfortable bar or in the purpose built outdoor patio area.

Our food is locally sourced and freshly prepared by our family run kitchen... who love to cook!

We offer excellent en-suite accommodation with beautifully furnished non – smoking rooms and ample, safe parking. Ideally located just 5 minutes from Newcastle International Airport and only 15 minutes from the vibrant, bustling City Center.

The upstairs Function Room and bar, 'The Rock', is an ideal venue for parties, christenings and all other occasions. We will happily organise a band or DJ for you, plus our kitchen can provide a fantastic spread of food.

How to ruin a perfectly good traditional pub. Went down on Boxing Day for a couple of pints. Bouncers on the door, plastic glasses, possibly the worst pint I have had and no festive selection anymore, ridiculously loud music and full of drug fuelled teenagers ( 2 blokes came out of one of the cubicles with rolled up notes, sniffing and thanking each other) . It is now like a bar in town and has been totally ruined by the new owners. What a shame

We had an overnight stay here. The room was well presented, clean and comfortable. One observation was that we heard other guests entering the location via the communal entrance. The breakfast in the morning was a choice of cereal, pastries and fruit. I would have liked a cooked option. Another tip is to remember to register your car at the bar when parking to avoid a possible fine.

I’m a regular here and it’s always been a good village pub. A lot of people complaining about the parking situation. I forgot to register my car recently and got a fine. Contacted the pub and they immediately got in touch with the 3rd party responsible and got the ticket cancelled with no hassle at all. Thanks again guys.

Great party held up stairs. Friendly staff, drinks not expensive. But it was so hot as no windows seemed to open and even with the rear door open it was absolutely boiling hot. Good place for a party but definitely needs some way of letting air through when full.

Great atmosphere and ambience. Staff were welcoming and friendly. A good variety of beers and drinks on offer. The rooms were very clean with excellent facilities. Good value for money I would highly recommend the Diamond Inn.
