Great hotel and location

Check in was very easy, staff were very friendly and helpful, room was lovely , larger than expected with 4 poster bed. Great hotel in great location. Bar area was very nice with painted mural walls. Only minor negative comment would be that the paint work i.e. doors and skirting was looking very tired, could do with a refresh.

Excellent hotel and great value for money

Stayed one night on a visit to the nearby Bowes Museum. We had a very pleasant drink in the hotel bar (famous wall murals) followed by an excellent dinner Our room was comfortable (though I needed to remake the bed - sheets were crumpled and not tucked in). Lovely full breakfast. We're looking forward to our next stay in this great hotel.

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.

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.
