Great hotel and location

Check in was very easy, staff were very friendly and helpful, room was lovely , larger than expected with 4 poster bed. Great hotel in great location. Bar area was very nice with painted mural walls. Only minor negative comment would be that the paint work i.e. doors and skirting was looking very tired, could do with a refresh.

Friendly and cosy

Lovely homely hotel with very friendly staff. Food was lovely and had a cosy bar with a real fire. Hotel is a little dated however staff are excellent. Lovely surroundings and had a visit to the spa however booking is essential to avoid any disappointment. We had a room on the road side of the hotel and with the windows open could hear the traffic from the nearby A66. Would definitely stay again if in the area.

Lovely quaint hotel In a quiet location

The hotel is gorgeous and the staff are amazing. So friendly and genuinely want to help you and make you feel welcome. The surroundings are lovely and Barnard Castle is down the road with some lovely views, walks and a couple of coffee shops. The room was cute. We booked a deluxe and it was like a little apartment. Breakfast is lovely. The food in the bar was lovely but a bit pricey for what it is. Overall a lovely, pleasant stay 😊

Disappointed

Food was lovely and staff serving were helpful. The heating was on in my room full blast in a really warm day when I first went in, was too scared to leave the window open as I was level with the roof and there was a lot of birds. Room was average, pretty small. Unfortunately i attempted to call reception 3 times between 11pm-midnight to ask when the music would be turned off, it was turned off at midnight but then the music was back on again at 6.30am. I’m guessing my room was right above the speakers in the restaurant which was unfortunate. Just overall a very noisy hotel with old floor boards and other guests shouting good night to each other down the hall.

Laura

Disliked: Staff & service
The room was fine, old fashioned but worked for us to lay our head when we got back. We had an issue with keys (we accidentally left it in the room as we left and didn’t realise, so this then involved them trying about 100 keys in the lock to get in and then waking up the owner of the hotel and us being told “a very angry man is going to come in a minute to sort this out”, which made me feel very uncomfortable. it took almost an hour to sort out, which was a nightmare, and once we finally got to bed, we could hear the goings on in the next room until the very early hours of the next morning so barely slept. I probably wouldn’t stay again!
