A very comfortable, clean, and quiet room.Staff brilliant. Plenty of car parking. Our only suggestion would be to review the breakfast arrangements - for example - a buffet breakfast in the hotel rather than the current system at the adjacent spa.

Great for an odd night or two

Staff were very polite and welcoming. Only downside, if you wanted breakfast you had to walk across the carpark to the next building for dining.

Working Away

Receptionist very friendly and helpful, breakfast and snacks served in the leisure suite - separate building. The rooms were RED hot, too warm. I had very noisy guests above me, the hotel couldn’t change that. But it did sound like a heard of elephants were above me - all night. Shower rather than a bath, shower is a power shower and was good, Elemis body wash and hair wash in rooms Hotel very central for North East and easy access to A1/major routes
