Noisy!
Stayed on a Saturday evening. After travelling and a long day I was looking forward to a rest. The room was clean but no remote for the tv and the toilet seat was broken. I spoke to the staff and nothing materialised to sort either. Also there was entertainment which I wasn’t aware of so it was very noisy, especially as I was directly above them. I wouldn’t have stayed if I had been informed of this. Luckily it did finish at 10.00p.m. On the good side the evening meal I purchased and the breakfast which was included were very nice.

Warm and friendly with great food and service.
I was on business and don't really like the clinical nature of premier inn ect. I have stayed here before and love the traditional atmosphere and as it is a kind of gastro pub, the food, including the breakfast is really nice.

Good base to explore North East
2 night stay with friends to see Bruce at Stadium of Light and a day at Beamish.
Great location with easy access and a quirky pub with good food and range of beers.

Very friendly staff
Would have liked a chair in the bedroom and although the bed foot was ornate and white and obvious both myself and my husband kept hitting our knees on them as they did stick out.

A great shame.
The room was disappointing considering the charge. Tired furnishings, extensive evidence of a roof leak, poor standard of cleaning.
Breakfast on the first morning of two was appalling! Porridge is not just oats with hot milk poured over the top… poached eggs were badly cooked, black pudding was undercooked. We also noticed another couple had left almost all of their full English breakfasts. The second morning was better but not outstanding.
Had we been paying £60 per night, I wouldn’t have minded so much, but it wasn’t worth £100 per night.
