The location is beautiful, in the middle of the countryside no other houses in sight and stunning grounds, just what we wanted. check in was quick and easy and staff were lovely. as you walk through the building its beautifully decorated. The room (119) was a little tired, marks on wall as you enter, cobweb on ceiling, wardrobe only had 1 mirror door not two and wasn't clean, 1 bulb out in bathroom, extractor fan not working, tiny bit of shower gel in bottle, had to ask for more, hole in carpet, and very threadbare in parts, windows not cleaned. Bed was comfy and clean and towels were clean. room was nice I just expected little more attention to cleaning and to maintenance. We used the pool area, again its tired, all the facilities are there and working fine just feels like it needs a lick of paint and good clean. We had good nights sleep, excellent blackout curtains. Breakfast was in beautiful room with views over the garden, service was excellent, the cold buffet was fine, nothing special all the basics, English breakfast was again ok, 1 of everything, was £48 for the two of us which felt a lot for what we were served. Overall a nice stay but certainly no WOW for your money.

A simply amazing stay. Firstly Ian and his team helped us remedy an error made by ******* on booking rooms at the Bowes hotel. Really friendly and interpersonal staff along with extensive knowledge of the area and further beyond particularly Hadrian's Wall path along with the Roman Museums and Forts. The food served was amazing aswell, better than some other independent restaurants, also the Thai-cakes are a must try! The room is clean and tidy with a great buffet breakfast to boot, they also make lunch for your journey ahead.
If you are staying at Bardon Mill, this is the place to be, just a walk away from the station that connects back to Newcastle. Friendly neighbourhood and locals that shares stories from their journeys and also fellow travellers from around the world mostly doing the Hadrian's Wall walk. I cannot fault this wonderful and cosy hotel and pub that is the Bowes Hotel!

A very special stay experience, it is a real medieval castle, and the choice is one of the only few rooms in the castle Josephine suite, especially like the medieval windows in the room, the photos are very good. The dinner and breakfast experience was great, the overall price/performance ratio was OK, the night was very quiet and there was almost no light pollution, and you could see the wonderful stars. The most recommended is the castle tour, there is a dedicated staff who will take you to visit the entire castle and climb to the top, the scenery is unique. There are peacocks in the yard 🦚
If you want to experience a unique castle stay, it is highly recommended.

Comfortable room, nice selction of toiletries with pleasant scent. lovely food. Battlesteads was able to accommodate a pet dog ( pet pack also included) . Great selection for brealfast and tasty Ringtons coffee. This was a birthday break so only one night stay , Booked bed and breakfast, decided to add evening meal. The village of Wark is lovely to walk around, cross over bridge to football field one way and dog walk the other, weather helped make the stay as it was warm Autumn sunshine. Saw Grey Heron by the riverbank. Would recommend and would go again.

Guest UserThis place was brilliant. The room was immaculate. Spotless. New. Furniture, bedding , towels and the little touches 10/10.
The staff were super friendly .
I saved my bag before check. They did me a breakfast takeout as needed to be out early. They also helped me when i got stranded there as made a mistake with the buses. When i realised there are no buses on a sunday they helped me by chatting to a couple of guests who on leaving were going my way and kindly said they would drop me off.
I loved the stay. Top tip.. check buses if going by bus.

A pub and hotel all in one. We had the studio or 'flat' on the top floor. The room was comfortable, although a slightly unusual configuration with one internal bedroom having a lock on the door.
The main problem was the shower, which was either red hot or freezing cold, with low water pressure.
The B&B only included a continental breakfast which was fine. It cost a £9 upgrade to have a full English which we didn't try.
The pub was lively with a good atmosphere. Beds were reasonably comfortable.
