The food in the knights restaurant was very good , so much so we changed our plans and ate there a second night . Overall a pleasant stay though the rain limit our spirits and enthusiasm to go exploring.

Booked for two nights to go to Beamish museum . Travelling by train. Walk , part uphill to Castle takes about 30 minutes from the station. Uber £ 8 bus quite complicated.  There is a bus from town centre to the hotel  but it’s quite complicated suggest if unable to walk book a Uber. Bus  from town centre to Beamish entry very easy,  £2.50.  Now for the Castle itself. You can’t help falling in love with the quaint and worn castle the ‘worn’ being part of its attraction. We stayed in the stables in an upstair room. Stairs are quite narrow with small landings so  not suited to those with hip and calling difficulties. Bed , bedding and bathroom immaculate and very comfortable. Room very peaceful with early waking of bird song. Bathroom had a separate magnifying mirror which was very much appreciated. Down side was the dust on the beams over the bed hence the lower score for cleanliness.  Now for the breakfast and restaurant service. Faultless. Food of the highest quality with service to match. Breakfast matches the London 5 star ratings.  Overall this hotel was exceptionally good value and a place we plan to visit again. We highly recommend this for anyone visiting Beamish who appreciates high quality food, something a little different, peace and quiet who enjoys a lovely bath.

Amazing place! The reception is fabulous and the menu looks amazing! It's situated right next to a golf course so plenty of nature to explore. Staffs were friendly, rooms were cosy and comfy, good amenities too!

Service was great, facilities great, was woke up early hours of the morning with fire alarm blaring in the room. my wife rang reception to see what was happening, the receptionist was quite abrupt and rude and said he knows I'm dealing with it, no apology on checkout. For us it is a luxury to have a overnight stay in a hotel, we were left feeling deflated and tired

So beautiful! The castle hotel is very beautiful, and the front desk uncle is very enthusiastic. It is suitable for taking pictures. The room is very quiet and the heating is sufficient. There is a lot of artistic conception. There are many plants in the garden. The library bar is also suitable for sitting there and daydreaming. It's a pity that I didn't see the cats in the castle. I hope to stay here again next time.
