Overnight stay on way to Beamish. Good,clean comfy room. Enough parking, restaurant next door was excellent and service was excellent we would definitely highly recommend. Great choice of food. Breakfast was at 10.00 too late for us we were offered 9.15 am but it was cereal only so opted out . Will find alternative. Two miles from Chester le Street which has all amenities.

Last minute booking for a colleague and I, there is no real book-in procedure and we had to go to the bar but don’t let that take away from the experience. The rooms are lovely, the location is slightly remote but the meal in the Restaurant was fantastic, excellent value for money and the staff including Johnny and a lovely lady whose name I don’t know but owns horses was first class. Would stay again.

We were visiting the area and this hotel was central to everything we wanted to visit. Quite close to Beamish museum. Hotel is a bit of an add on to the bar and restaurant. It's nice and clean but the bar staff aren't very hands on with booking in and such...bar itself is nice, live music on Friday nights which was lovely. Main attraction here is the restaurant which is amazing..worth staying at the hotel for that alone

The stay overall was very good, the hotel and room were clean and the bonus of having the Italian bistro next door was brilliant.( good food and caring chef ) In respect of the team on duty, everyone was very friendly and attentive making the stay very enjoyable and would have no hesitation staying next time i am up in the north, a big thanks to everyone.

Warm welcome, attentive service, nice atmosphere, lovely food. The manager & his team went out of their way to help us celebrate a birthday. On a Friday night there's a singer in the downstairs bar, which helped make it more of a night out than just 'meal out.' The food was great, but I think what sets the place apart a bit is the friendliness of the staff.

Arrived early and room was already available, staff were really helpful offering to help with bags etc. restaurant food was really good, and staff very friendly. I called in the week asking if I could get an early breakfast as I was running GNR , they couldn’t open early but went out and bought me the breakfast items I’d mentioned specially. Needs a little updating but everything was clean tidy and professional and very friendly.

Excellent meal in the restaurant. Bedrooms are spotlessly clean and outstanding value for money. Staff were all very friendly and helpful. We would not hesitate to return to this hotel. Perfect for a visit to the Durham area.

An overnight stop following a long day at Beamish Museum. The Moorings provided all that we needed close by before a long journey home next day. The restaurant staff were excellent, recommending excellent food that was good value for money.
