We stayed one night and had a lovely stay. The rooms were immaculate and even though we were facing the courtyard outside we had a peaceful night. The staff were lovely and we would definitely stay here again.

Josephine, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Excellent hotel with very welcoming and helpful staff. Extra bonus was the EV charging point in the car park. High quality food and varied menu, including vegan options. Only minor issue was the cooked breakfast was only served from 7:30am, which affected my early start, but otherwise very good. Great location, easy to find and in a lovely setting with gardens and outdoor tables. Highly recommended.

Perfect stay
Perfect stay. Staff were very helpful and kind. Room ( newly refurbished) was great and for a small fee we were able to make use of an extra lounge area adjacent to our room. Highly recommended.

A pleasant stay
Friendly staff. Clean, comfortable room, very quiet. Excellent food quality in restaurant. Recommended.

8/10 Very good

Generally good. Only problem was the pre booked £20 dinner. That would work with a set meal. It doesn't work well a la carte
Chris, 1-night trip

Really comfortable quiet hotel. Better than I expected considering its rated 3 stars. Quiet; comfortable beds, great shower and lovely breakfast 😋
Ingrid, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The whole property was well presented and welcoming. Staff were all friendly and helpful. Breakfast was very good. The room was a good size, with all amenities expected. The window overlooked a busy road but with the triple glazing there was very little noise.
Graham, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very enjoyable stay.
Visiting the area house hunting. The hotel was perfectly located to get around. Very comfortable room, warm and very well appointed. Breakfast was excellent, and the evening meals too. Unfortunately the Sunday roast was disappointing, but all in all the food was good. The staff were excellent, efficient and friendly. Special mention to Sasha in the restaurant, who went above and beyond to provide great service, especially when the Wi-Fi failed and our order was lost. Thankyou all.

Lovely hotel - need to improve their admin
Lovely refurbished hotel with great rooms and very friendly staff. Only downside of this trip I chose to pay at hotel but they took payment from my card before arrival which made the option pointless.
Nicola, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very clean, modern & friendly. Excellent shower, comfy bed. Lovely breakfast, decent bar food. A bit off the beaten track, but still only a short drive to Durham & other attractions. Can’t fault it.
John, 2-night trip

Lovely Room
It was clean and tidy quiet, it felt like flat, not a hotel room. You went up some stairs to your room, there was only one other room.. You had a view of the court yard, or of a field both.. had everything you need in the room very spacious..
Patricia, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Modern and comfortable with lots of parking
Stayed in the courtyard rooms which are good, the chairs are not the greatest and not overly comfortable but ok. Other than better fitting black out blinds as they let in a lot of light especially when the sun shines on them the room was good, good size, clean, with USB charging points. Would stay again for sure.
Robert, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Top notch
A return to the land of my grandfather.. situated about a mile outside the town centre the hotel has a large carpark with electric chargers. The rooms are contained in a courtyard block set back from the reception in a style familiar to those that travel in Australia and that is a good thing. Facilities are excellent and each room is perfectly clean and spotless. The meals are cooked to perfection and the breakfasts are award winning The staff are courteous and attentive. All in all this is a top notch place to stay.

A great stopover to visit friends.....
Easy to find with lots of free parking. A warm welcome in a stylish reception. A spotlessly clean, spacious and nicely decorated room. A comfortable night's sleep. A powerful shower with complimentary toiletries. Again a warm welcome at breakfast. The dining room is bright and modern and a lovely place to eat. We were told to help ourselves at the continental style buffet and given a hot menu with lots of choices to order. Service was fast and we were really happy with our food choices. It was a good breakfast to set us up for the day. A lovely place, great value for money, we would recommend to others and definitely stay here again ourselves. Well done to all who work there including those behind the scenes.

10/10 Exceptional

A truly lovely stay from start to finish. Checked in with ease. We had a long drive and arrived later but reception staff were patient and professional. The building was clean, tidy and welcoming and our room delightful. Everything seemed fresh and spotless. Breakfast was plentiful and delicious. Again Staff were professional and friendly. I would definitely recommend this hotel and hope, one weekend soon, will return. Thank you so much.
