    A Cozy Retreat with Exceptional Service

    We truly enjoyed our stay! The luxury double room was beautifully decorated, and the bed offered the best sleep we've had in ages. Dinner options were plentiful, and the crispy bacon at breakfast is a must-try. Remember to request it well done! The staff's friendliness added a warm touch to our visit.

    Fantastic food and comfy stay!

    Just wrapped up 2 nights here in a family room. Super clean and cozy, loved the toiletries they gave us! Breakfast was cooked on the spot, yay! The meals were on point too. Did a stargazing event which was epic! Only thing, the shower could use some more power. a great spot!

    tasting menu
    stargazing experience
    local ingredients
    noise disturbance

    The 8-course tasting menu delivered some unique flavors and local ingredients that left a lasting impression. The interactive stargazing experience added an unforgettable twist to the night, engaging guests eager for some cosmic exploration.

    The so-called double room turned out to be two twin beds pushed together, which wasn't what I signed up for. being above the bar was a bit of a misstep, as noise carried until closing time, making it hard to get a good night's sleep. The bathroom could use an update. it's a bit tired-looking, which detracts from the overall comfort of the stay. At dinner, a few dishes felt like they missed the mark, lacking that fresh zing and finesse expected at a place like this—definitely not worth the premium pricing.

    great base
    slow service
    evening delays

    we recently stayed at this cozy hotel for a family holiday and were really impressed. the local produce used in both breakfast and dinner was fantastic, especially the homemade pies and sausages. the kids loved the garden and the proximity to hadrian's wall, making it a perfect base for exploring.

    the evening service was slow

    delicious local beers
    beautiful garden
    cozy outdoor seating
    small hiccup

    We had a lovely one-night stay where we enjoyed some delicious local beers at the bar and soaked in the beautiful garden while stargazing. The relaxation opportunities were great, especially the cozy outdoor seating and the inviting atmosphere of the observatory. Just a small hiccup with our drink order during dinner, but overall, it was a fantastic experience! 🌟

    beer garden
    local ingredients
    underwhelming shower
    small bed

    The stay was quite pleasant overall. both the beer garden and food exceeded expectations with fresh local ingredients. Although the shower was a bit underwhelming, and a larger bed would have improved comfort, the welcoming atmosphere and attentive staff made the experience enjoyable.
