I mean, Northumberland is a beautiful place, and this property was no less beautiful. It is the most eco-conscious hotel we've ever stayed in, with it's own garden, solar panels. and I believe a rain catcher? There's so much wildlife in the area, bird feeders and cats roaming around. We got lucky and there was a bit of clear sky our second night, so we headed to the observatory and got to spots some stars since it's in a Dark Sky Park. It was also a great distance to all the sights in the area, particularly Hadrian's Wall and the Roman Forts. Breakfast was fantastic, staff was friendly, food and drink were great. An overalls really fantastic stay.

Excellent stay

The staff were all very helpful & attentive to our needs. The room was very spacious & well equipped with the added gesture of complementary fruit. An excellent range of food to choose from for breakfast & the quality was very good, along with the service. The hotel was clean & welcoming. Would definitely recommend.

Second stay, not disappointed

Our second visit to this hotel. Not disappointed with the standard of accommodation or the excellent menu. Our room was the accessable room in the ground floor of the main building, well appointed but quite dark. The hotel looks great and lives up to its reputation

Relaxing stay

Hotel in lovely village with nice walks around, our room was spacious with a large bed, nice touch with the fruit and biscuits. Given a disabled room although we didn’t book one. Lovely gardens and great food both in the restaurant and breakfast. Service disappointing at dinner as we sat with empty glasses throughout meal until we had to go and ask the same with ordering desserts. Lacked a bit of friendliness by staff.
