Great base to explore the many sights of Northumberland if you have a car. Excellent service and staff were friendly. Food was good and room was comfortable
Fantastic stay at Doxford. Grounds are beautiful. Spa facilities very good. Breakfast generous and great quality. Spa bath in room deliberately disabled in all rooms which isn't ideal.
The room was clean and spacious unlike other cheap rooms. Staff was very friendly and helpful.
Breakfast amazing and super delicious..
Overall it will kill (win your heart)❤️
Love the breakfast; and the size of room and attached bathroom. Room cleaninless can be further improved upon (e.g. fallen insects on window sills, dusty fan etc.). Amenities would have been better if there is greater public indoor area (e.g. restaurant/pub area) that is more open/flexible for guests to retreat to over extended hours (e.g. for usage of public wifi to connect to internet). Overall, it's a convenient site for a good night's rest!
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.
Enjoyed the stay in this hotel. We traveled to explore Northumberland and it was a historical landmark and great location to explore other parts of Northumberland.
ผผู้เข้าพักThe 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.
ผผู้เข้าพักA 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!
ผผู้เข้าพักI had a very pleasant stay here. It’s a solid choice if you are looking for a reliable and affordable base in the area.
The price is very reasonable, and the staff are incredibly friendly and helpful. The facilities are well-maintained and provide everything you need for a comfortable stay.
While the hotel itself is great, please be aware that the location requires some planning. It is a bit of a distance from both Alnmouth Railway Station and Alnwick Castle.
Public transport (buses) in this area is very limited and infrequent. I highly recommend checking the timetables in advance and leaving plenty of buffer time to ensure you don’t miss your connections.
MMandy_HWe had a wonderful birthday weekend at Langley Castle. The grounds are stunning, and the location is perfect for exploring the Northumberland countryside and coast. We stayed in the Castle Lodge, which was excellent.
Huge thanks to the staff, especially Aidan and Ellie, for being so welcoming and professional. Dinner at the Josephine Restaurant was a highlight—the birthday surprise (chocolate truffles!) for my partner was a very thoughtful touch. After a superb cooked-to-order breakfast and a guided tour the next day, we left feeling very impressed. Highly recommended!

ผผู้เข้าพักReally enjoyed my first stay. Staff were very pleasent.
Breakfast was pleantiful and well presented.
You must have your own transport as there were no buses.
There's too much of a long walk into Alnwick by the A1 mortorway. That's not very pleasent or safe.
The only issue I had was with the awlful television (It certainly needs updating) in the Cart Shed accommodation. The hand controller was useless.
