A fantastic stay overall. The room was clean and of a very good standard. We were greeted by Emma on reception and made very welcome. We had a meal in the restaurant and it was excellent. Thanks go to Lewis for his attentive service. We will definitely be back. Nick and Tracy.

Great stay
We had a great stay. Customer service was brilliant. Could do with better road signage as it wasn't very clear where the entrance was.

Thoroughly recommended
This is a lovely place to stay, very peaceful and quiet and close to Barnard Castle.
The staff are friendly and the service was excellent.
The rooms are as good as they look on the photos. Good WiFi and place to catch up on work near the bar area.
I see it is a Wedding venue too, I’d say it’s a great place for a party.
