Second stay, not disappointed

Our second visit to this hotel. Not disappointed with the standard of accommodation or the excellent menu. Our room was the accessable room in the ground floor of the main building, well appointed but quite dark. The hotel looks great and lives up to its reputation

Relaxing stay

Hotel in lovely village with nice walks around, our room was spacious with a large bed, nice touch with the fruit and biscuits. Given a disabled room although we didn’t book one. Lovely gardens and great food both in the restaurant and breakfast. Service disappointing at dinner as we sat with empty glasses throughout meal until we had to go and ask the same with ordering desserts. Lacked a bit of friendliness by staff.

Great family room with plenty of space. My son really enjoyed the plate of fruit we were given. Great facilities and a really comfy bed. Perfect for a long weekend visiting Hadrian's Wall.

A wonderful one night stay that topped our expectations. First class hospitality which even included a dog welcome kit! A great dinner followed by a 12year old Dalmore (who knew!) and a superb breakfast. We highly recommend Battlesteads, great value for money too.
