"Fourth visit. Welcoming staff, spotless bed linen and towels, comfortable bed. However, the en-suite in room 1 appeared grubby. Not actually unclean, but stained and chipped shower tray and sink plug holes didn’t give the positive impression of previous visits. Disappointing."

Lumley Castle Hotel
10/10 Excellent
"We stayed here to experience a castle stay and we were not disappointed!"
"Very nice property. sorrounded by nice golf courses and conveniently located near the city center. The bar and steak house are worth a try. The rooms are spacious and very clean. The staff is beyond friendly and attentive."
"Nice place to stay easy to find and plenty of parking spaces. Chose here as reasonably priced and close to a running event a family member was attending "
"It’s a lovely hotel and very convenient stop. The staff were super friendly and helpful.
We only had breakfast but it was delicious and plenty of it. The decor was lovely but needed a bit of tidying and the vase on the table needed a clean. I’m not keen on fake flowers which gather dust and the winter sun shows the glass vase needing a polish.
I’m being picky hoping I’m being helpful. It was a fab stay and I thoroughly recommend it and would stay again. "
3 bedroom accommodation in Houghton Le Spring, near Durham
10/10 Excellent
"Amazing accomodation, Wendy the host is so welcoming and the Barn was perfect
Ample parking, lovely surroundings, fantastic wi-fi . The accommodation is so clean and finished in a high standard. Upon our very late arrival Wendy was there to welcome us and provided a welcome basket and Prosecco.
All rooms are superb inc bedding and towels and living space so comfy.
Kithen is fully equipped and huge. Perfect for a wkd away or longer. Would highly recommend and will be back if we travel up North again"
"Pros:
Really good communication from host. Decorated nicely. Log burner (extra charge if using hosts logs). Milk in fridge. 8 minutes drive to Beamish museum. 4 minutes drive to a really good play park and splash area, by the river. Comfy beds and bedding. The accommodation was really clean. Shower heats up quick, large shower head.
Dog bowls and biscuit treats - nice extra.
Cons:
Oven was broken by previous guest (on request, host was really good at providing air fryers). Beds not great if you're over 6ft tall. Shower area is quite small. An extra toilet downstairs would be a bonus."
