    Thank you very much for the really nice stay during the summer holidays. The staff are very hospitable, managed the parking onsite. The location is good in a fairly quiet area, adjacent to the sunken walled garden, battlesteads before great place and Hexham on the other nights. At the main bar they serve outstanding food and drinks.

    The room was well furnished and also had a bathtub. Its location in what initially appears to be a pub was lovely.

    A Cozy Retreat with Really good Service

    We enjoyed our stay! The luxury double room was beautifully decorated, and the bed offered the best sleep we've had in ages. Dinner options were plentiful, and the crispy bacon at breakfast is awesome. Remember to request it well done! The staff's friendliness added a warm touch to our visit.

    Fantastic food and comfy stay!

    Just wrapped up 2 nights here in a family room. Super clean and cozy, loved the toiletries they gave us! Breakfast was cooked on the spot, yay! The meals were on point too. Did a stargazing event which was epic! Only thing, the shower could use some more power. A great spot!

    tasting menu
    stargazing experience
    local ingredients
    noise disturbance

    The 8-course tasting menu delivered some unique flavors and local ingredients that left a lasting impression. The interactive stargazing experience added an lovely twist to the night, engaging guests eager for some cosmic exploration.

    The so-called double room turned out to be two twin beds pushed together, which wasn't what I signed up for. Being above the bar was a bit of a misstep, as noise carried until closing time. The bathroom could use an update. It's a bit tired-looking, which detracts from the overall comfort of the stay. At dinner, a few dishes seemed like they missed the mark, lacking that fresh zing and finesse expected at a place like this-definitely not worth the premium pricing.

    great base
    slow service
    evening delays

    The local produce used in both breakfast and dinner was fantastic, especially the homemade pies and sausages. The kids loved the garden and the proximity to hadrian's wall.

    the evening service was slow
