I had an economy room at an amazing low price and it is in a property immediately next to the hotel. The room is really nice and the bed is very comfortable.

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

Paper thin walls - prepare for no sleep.
Unfortunately I had virtually no sleep at the hotel as it was so noisy.The walls are paper thin, so you can hear everything from the room above too. Added to which the bathroom was in a "cupboard" so accessing it was ridiculously awkward. At 5am we gave up, drove home and went to bed.

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.

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 😊

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.

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.

Wonderful hotel
We had a wonderful 2 nights stay. The staff were fabulous, the breakfast 10 out of 10. The room was clean spacious, and well equipped. We had lovely big fluffy towels, the only complaint would be the mattress but I am very fussy with mattresses.
