This is my second stay and this time I upgraded to a castle room to be honest it was nice to be in the castle but the room was no better than the west wing I stayed in previously so maybe should have gone for the serious upgrade Like a four poster bed room But for it being a work trip I didn't feel I could justify it. From reception onwards all the staff are friendly and helpful the rooms are clean and well appointed. I learnt from the last visit about the Meal portions so only had the main in the restaurant as the portions are very generous. Outside there is plenty of parking and its only 5-10 minutes from Darlington where I needed to be next day. I cannot fault this place it cost the same to stay as the Premier Inn in Darlington the same night and although the Meal is more pricey there is no comparison Castle or Chain Hotel .....

We Had an excellent night at the castle, beautiful historical building, with lots of stunning original character. The restaurant, the dungeon, the beautiful detail in every room. The 1189 restaurant had an exceptional choice especially, for us being vegan, there was a great menu, and every dish was outstanding. The Best vegan dishes ,we have eaten in any restaurant by far !!! 5* ,to the chef for his creativity and choice ,the vegan menu was truly exceptional. Thank you. Also to all the staff who were just excellent ,so warm and friendly and attentive. Something you don't see every day. To the housekeeping ,the rooms we're spotless ,cosy ,and just delightful. We will definitely be back and recommend 100% .

The room was a little on the small side but there again it's only for sleeping in ! but it was nice and clean and was cleaned every day during our stay . The staff couldn't have been more helpful . I found the room slightly chilly on our first night and when I mentioned it at reception and said I'd be quite happy with a portable heater one was outside the door within 5 minutes .I did enjoy breakfast , which was freshly cooked and served in the dining room which was in the older part of the castle . It's in a quiet location but extremely handy for the M1 . We will definitely return :)

The castle is great, a comfy lounge near the bar for guests. the restaurant and evening meal was delicious and of large portions (we shouldn’t have had the starter 🫣) and breakfast of good quality and plenty of choice set us up for the days travels. We’d like to thank Ashley for the Dungeon tour and information given, love it and she went above and beyond when they were busy. The staff were lovely. And the room comfy enough with a nice printout with best wishes for our anniversary being a lovely touch.

From arriving to leaving everything was perfect. All staff friendly and would do anything to help. Receptionist even give us a tour of the dungeon and told us so much history about the building itself (we told them we were on a holiday touring castles and abbeys)Food was amazing. We had evening meal and breakfast and couldn't fault it. Room was spotless with everything we needed. Water bottle when leaving was such a lovely gesture too.
