Brilliant hotel. Great Price. Thanks!

Amazing stay for work with my Danish colleagues. The food in the restaurant is brilliant, especially the pizza which is made in a proper pizza over outside. The rooms are immaculate and the beds are comfy. I will definitely be back!

Great pub with very nice annexe of lovely rooms. A local power cut meant I didn’t get to try the shower or in-room hot drinks and they couldn’t serve cooked breakfast but this was totally outside their control - the emergency lighting worked!

Needs improving.

OK place for short notice, not for longer trips. Staff friendly enough. The room I was in had a musty damp smell, although didn't feel or look damp. The pillows were terrible, very stained, so much so you could see it though the pillow cases. One of my pet hates is booking a super king bed then getting 2 beds pushed together, like here, very uncomfortable. Posatives are, free parking, good evening food options. Needs some upgrades here and there.

Not a bad hotel for the money.

Nice hotel rooms at the rear of the pub. Beds very comfortable, and the free water a bonus. The only downside was that the walls are not that well insulated so you could hear noise from the adjoining rooms and the room above. Great for relatives who are having to stay over if family are in Wansbeck hospital. Some of the breakfast items have a surcharge to them, and not part of the regular breakfast menu Staff lovely and go out of their way to assist Cannot comment on the local area, as I was there for work, not sight seeing, or a break. Will stay again when working the way.

Should have been a great stay, but wasn’t quite.

Got a good price for the room but this was cancelled out by the £10 charge for overnight parking and £15 charge for breakfast. The towel rail in room 3 is without doubt the dirtiest thing I’ve seen in a hotel room in years. Ewww….

The staff were all nice so no complaints there. The room was ok but its clearly needing some investment and cleaning. The bathroom had lots of mould and shower head was so bad we all refused to use it. I manage a facility with showers and there are requirements to prevent legionella that are clearly not being followed. There was also an emergency light with a green led so bright it kept the room illuminated the whole night. Never seen this anywhere else but it kept us up and prevented our 1 year old sleeping.

The hotel is in a run down area and it needs a bit of a decor vamp. Aldo having to pay for parking at 10 pounds a day is ridiculous as I was on a spare piece of land outside the hotel . The manager asked me to move no wonder he was getting 20 pounds out of me moving my car Was supposed to be in a deluxe double room if this was deluxe then why would I not have special favours like little soap’s conditioner etc etc Also breakfast was 15 pounds each not worth it No bacon and beans were cold Also the fresh fruit was from a tin terrible
