Great family stay

Great stay, staff were all lovely and accommodating to our family. The room was very comfortable and nice size. It was very clean with great facilities. Breakfast was tasty with quick service and great quality. Parking was very easy around 100m walk away was a very large free public car park, and we found it very easy to stop outside the hotel to unload and load the car when needed.

No complaints whatsoever

Helpful and professional staff but relaxed atmosphere. Clean and comfortable room. No complaints at all (only thing preventing 5 stars was that I felt the black pudding in the Full English was a little bit dry, as if it had been under a heat lamp a little too long! This was, literally, the biggest negative.)

We were a couple, staying over for 1 night after a day at Hexham races. The check in was great, very easy and straight forward. We were shown to our room by the lady owner (sorry I can't remember your name) who was very friendly and helpful. The room was large, with an area to sit, a huge bed and a big en-suite. We had lunch in the bar downstairs which was a toastie and chunky chips for £8.95, excellent value. The breakfast was good the next day, a cooked breakfast to order and cereal, fruit, muffins etc on the buffet table. Would certainly stay again next time we are in Hexham.
