Our contactors stayed here and they said it was a lovely stay.

10/10

A real find, we can't believe the great value for money offered here. The room was big, well laid out and equipped with a decent bathroom and even a provate area to sit outside. Dinner and breakfast were both delicious and the staff all friendly and helpful. Excellent!

One night stay. Accommodation very comfortable and staff very friendly. I booked a table for dinner for six for a family meal. The food was excellent but the only downside was the time we had to wait (about an hour). This could have been due to them having another large party in for dinner. The breakfast in the morning was excellent. Overall an enjoyable stay.

Very enjoyable stay,very comfortable rooms found shower over corner bath a bit of a challenge to stand under comfortably. Staff very friendly, meals exceptional as well as a hearty breakfast

We had a pleasant stay and the staff were very friendly. Our only issue was we found it cold although the heating was on in the room. We would come back and definitely recommend this little hotel.

very pleasant friendly people,room clean tidy, mattress on the soft side . A chair to sit in would be a handy addition. Good supply of tea/coffee. Strange locking set up on the bathroom door amused us.Would have been nice to have sampled the Breakfast but 08:00 was to late for us and probably most workers.Overall a pleasant friendly stay at a good price.

Very clean and large comfortable bedroom and bathroom designed for wheelchairs access. A few things the handyman needs to address such as shower screen has become unattached at one end, the small curtain rail is loose so pulls through when you close curtains. Very good food which we had on all 3 nights. Outside really needs tidying and lets the accommodation and bar/bistro down. Lawn needs mowing and planters removed or replanted, paths and steps need weeding and sweeping.

We stayed one night. Excellent value for money. Rooms clean and tidy and very quiet when we stayed. Just one niggle was when checking in the lady mentioned it was an extra £5 each for a cooked breakfast, however this wasn’t stated on booking. I did mention and showed the confirmation email. She checked with another staff member and said it was fine and was included in the price. The cooked breakfast in the morning was excellent and couldn’t do enough for us. The lady serving the breakfast was very welcoming and friendly. Thank you.

We stayed while visiting the Beamish museum. The rooms are similar in quality to those in chain hotels but what makes it special is that it is family owned and run and their attention to their guests is outstanding. I cannot speak too highly of Lesley with whom we had most contact during our stay. The food in their restaurant is of decent quality and generous to a fault, a similar comment applying to their breakfasts. If you want somewhere welcoming and reasonably priced while visiting Beamish look to further.

They gave us a very warm welcome and even though it was quite late, cooked us a good meal as soon as we arrived. The room and en-suite were very spacious and the bed comfortable. We really enjoyed the quietness there.

The stay overall was very good, the hotel and room were clean and the bonus of having the Italian bistro next door was brilliant.( good food and caring chef ) In respect of the team on duty, everyone was very friendly and attentive making the stay very enjoyable and would have no hesitation staying next time i am up in the north, a big thanks to everyone.
