The GF & I want a 4-5 day break in Scotland or Northumberland, 2 days or so biking but no trail centres just natural trails, & something to see or do when not biking.
Where should we go & stay in early October, pref B&B or Hotel.

Warkworth on the Northumbria coast, just up from Amble.
Stay here:

Nice and friendly accomodation, near enough to loads of trails, go a little further afield for the Cheviots. Loads of local walking, lovely village with 3 decent pubs and food.

Alan.

West coast of Scotland. Climb Ben Nevis, go to Mull/Iona/Arran/Skye etc. Good riding around Fort William.

Really good time of year to go as well - no midges, still warm, cheap accommodation, lovely people.
