Fantastic location and very scenic and peaceful. There is plenty to do within driving distance, 10 mins or so and the food at the hotel was very good and reasonable priced. The spa is a must it’s a great addition to your stay and very relaxing and well worth the money. Highly recommended

Very good stay - friendly staff, good breakfast and comfortable room. Only let down was that the curtains are very thin so the room was very bright at night and early morning. Ended up hanging blankets over the windows to try and block out light.

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 😊

Bad first impression
Our room was small and stuffy, with the windows open the smell of cooking from the kitchen below wasunpleasant. We asked for a fan which helped. The friends we travelled with has a much bigger room without the smells. The setting is lovely and we enjoyed the gardens. The second breakfast was a disaster: there was no bread, they ran out of yogurts and fruit. A request for marmalade was ignored until Erin was asked and she knew where the jar was in the kitchen. Louise was very sympathetic and cancelled the previous bad impression by reserving us a table that didn't wobble with marmalade already on the table. She was friendly and helpful and went out of her way to make us comfortable.

Value for money
Good value for money. I think the hotel itself would admit that it isn't a luxury venue but for £55 for the room it was clean and comfortable and I slept well. The decor needs updating. Staff were great and very friendly. Food was excellent. I highly recommend the restaurant. I would stay again.
