8/10 Good
"Some menu items were small in quantity for their price eg pea ravioli. Rest of menu good. Signage in lifts as to which floor was which difficult especially when the stall said it took them 3 months to get their head around! Overall a good relaxing experience. Thank you."

Beamish Park Hotel

Beamish Park Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"The staff here are absolutely wonderful creating a real home from home! The food in the restaurant was top notch and the drinks were served with care and attention. There was a lack of any kind of “ale” from the bar (neither bottles or cans) but that was the only missing item really. Almost everything is good but a couple of improvements would be around housekeeping - didn’t top up tea, sugar or bodywash on each day and we didn’t notice of course until needed! Some aspects of the hotel are quite tired. Small issues and didn’t detract from the warm welcome!"

Ramside Hall Hotel, Golf and Spa

10/10 Excellent
"For what must be an older hotel, the amenities are excellent, modern and well kept, swimming pool is massive with a jacuzzi hot tub, didn’t use the spa but looks amazing, bedroom was lovely, a nice size overlooking the garden area, nice and quiet, didn’t use golf course but ‘The Pin’ is a great place to visit ( in hotel grounds) sports bar, bowling, driving range, shuttle board and lots more, friendly helpful staff, will definitely be back!"
