Nice hotel, a short walk from the town centre. Staff very friendly and helpful. Good breakfast choice. My only negative point is that the bathroom was tired with noisy plumbing but otherwise I enjoyed my stay.

We had a lovely stay at the Oaks. The staff were all very helpful, and the food was delicious in the bar in the evening, and the breakfast was also great! The car park was always busy, but we were always able to find a space.

Second stay at the oaks. First time was in a family room with grandson which was great- this time in a double, which looked great on the surface but few minor issues - shower cubicle far too small, sockets not well positioned to use hairdryer/ tongs and pillows too thin and flimsy. The staff were brilliant as per previous visit and full Northumbrian breakfast was faultless and up there with the best. The location is ideal- only a 10 minute stroll to castle and town. Parking was easy - we couldn’t check in till 2pm but were allowed to use car park on arrival at 10.30am. Overall another pleasant stay.

Very comfortable bed we slept well and good shower. There was an unpleasant smell not sure what was causing it but everything else was good. We ate in the bar due to the rain and staff were very friendly and food portions enormous.

Easy to find, friendly and helpful staff. Room was a bit dated and looked like bathroom had been updated but still needed a good clean on paintwork, which also needed painting. Door to room was not tight fitting and light from landing was visible all night down one side.

The location of the hotel, the standard room we were given were just right for us. We particularly liked the ceiling fan which provided much needed cooling. So much better eco friendly than air-conditioning. The staff couldn't have been more welcoming or friendly and the food was excellently cooked with plenty to choose from. Go hungry to do the food justice. Drinks and food prices offer good value. Nothing seemed too much trouble and we'd heartily recommend a stay there to anyone.

This is the best room i have stayed in within this kind of setting. I booked a single budget room. It was brilliant. Very large room with a small double bed in it , much better than a single bed. Lovely bedding. Lovely spacious bathroom with fabulous products.no need to bring your own. Great brands of tea, coffee and biscuits. At breakfast i ask ed for mine to be cooked well done however it came back with pale bacon and sausage. All i ate was the egg. However their was lovely berries, greek yoghurt and toast with choice of jams etc. I would still recommend this place .

Great, friendly staff and easy to park and the room was a good size for a single. Only marked as 3/5 as room was above the kitchen extractor fans which were only turned off between 9.30 - 6.00. So if you book as a single remember the earplugs! Would happily return but maybe check booking to ensure it’s not that end of the hotel. Gluten free options well catered for at breakfast but evening options are limited.

First time we had stayed here but friends had recommended it so we were happy to book. It was very clean, most of the staff were friendly and helpful. Found the food very average, only had one evening meal in the hotel, that was enough, if you like everything deep fried you are sorted, even the breakfast bacon by how tough it was. The hotel is on a busy corner junction so it was very noisy and as its a historic building it has single glazing so even with the windows shut (during a heatwave, so thank goodness for a fan in the room to at least blow the warm air around) you could still hear the traffic at the traffic lights outside so not a very good nights sleep. The ensuite was tiny and the shower cubicle claustrophobic, the wardrobes were half width and so narrow you had to hang your clothes at and angle on the rail to shut the door so not much good if you were staying more than a couple of days as more than three hangers worth wont fit. The pillows were flat and mine were a bit lumpy. The bed was fine, a bit too hard for me but a good quality mattress. Bedding was lovely, clean, white and crisp. Struggled to park the first night as the carpark is open to non residents and no nearby parking on the streets around it. All in all it wasn't a bad hotel but it just wasn't that great.

We stayed Monday to Friday for four nights during the recent heatwave. We wondered how easy it would be to sleep with no air-con but our room had a great ceiling fan and a window to open in the bedroom and one in the bathroom. The air circulation was spot on and we slept very well in the comfy bed. The whole place was very clean and welcoming with attentive and friendly staff. Breakfast was superb, as was the meal we had the evening we arrived. Parking was always available on site. The hotel is in a very good position, just on the edge of town but close enough to walk to the centre in ten minutes. We will definitely be back in the future.
