Can't fault anything. Everyone very helpful. It was on it's own beautifully kept gardens but wasn't within easy walking for Beamish or Stanley.

Beautiful room, scrupulously clean. Good breakfast although would have liked more choice in the continental section. Staff very pleasant and helpful. The grounds of the hotel were lovely for a stroll .

Lovely room, spotlessly clean and well maintained. We especially enjoyed the wonderful garden. Staff were very pleasant and attentive and the food was lovely. Will definitely be back.

Excellent historic building with beautiful grounds and original features. Fantastic restaurant and bar rear of complex open to the public too. Highly recommended

Very warm so air conditioning in the rooms would be good

Outside of the building looks grand and staffs are friendly. However, the room is small & bathroom is even smaller. Your leg can easily burn by the towel rail when you sit on the toilet. The elbows constantly either hit the shower door or the control switch. That’s how small it is. There is no direct access to the breakfast restaurant from the hotel because it’s in a out building. There is a bar in the hotel but probably only used for the wedding party. Overall is a good wedding venue but it’s not good value for a tourist in my opinion. For a small basic room like this you can paid £50 less somewhere nearby and will have a fridge in the room.

The hotel was lovely and old. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. We had an issue with no hot water, however the management did their very best to accommodate the problem asap and apologetic. The food in the stable restaurant was yum! Overall, a great stay.

We were less happy with the room on this occasion, dark sombre furniture, a dusty desk and no view. There was a spacious modernized bath & shower room however. There is a lift for rooms at the front and some stairs for rooms at the back so an odd mix of different levels. Splendid parkland very well maintained. We enjoyed the "Greek night" and the breakfast was equally good so happy with the food and service.

very friendly and helpful staff, excellent meals

Fabulous big room, we were upgraded and was a treat for our wedding night so we were absolutely delighted. Spotlessly clean, massive comfortable bed. Plenty of hot water for the jacuzzi bath, soft fluffy towels. Everything was first class.
