Excellent location. A very interesting and well planned change of use to a hotel, preserving so much of the original features. Great value for money. Super clean and comfortable. Breakfast buffet could have been a little better but would definitely recommend.

We had a very good experience when Anna the manager was on duty but standards definitely slipped when she was not there. Our room was not cleaned and our keys were not available when we came back in the evening. The restaurant staff were able to let us in but it’s had not been made clear to us in advance.

Reception staff were very helpful as were the bar staff and the spa staff, I had noticed a few england roses signs around the hotel lobby and was pleasantly surprised to learn they were staying at the hotel ready for the World Cup starting. If they weren’t wearing their hoodies you wouldn’t have noticed. I spent a lot of the time searching if I had spotted one. All in all a brilliant stay and the breakfast was beautiful too

    Like so many towns, Chester-le-Street has been hollowed out by online shopping. The key difference is that, whereas the towns that are local to where I live that have suffered the same fate as Chester-le-Street provide free parking in an effort to encourage trade, Chester-le-Street charge a fairly full price for parking. Regrettably, if I was in the area again it's not even a place I'd drop into because of the parking fees.

    I was visiting family for a 50th birthday, who lived less than 5 minutes travel away. Ideal location for Durham & Newcastle. Stormy weather prevented us from doing more. The room was a good retreat with a book. Function room ideal for the party.

    Chester le Street is a fine town in the centre of historical County Durham. The whole region has many historical attractions which should be of great interest to people in search of the regional culture . The rail service to Durham is very well supported . Road wise The A1M is one of the main arteries in England . As a road and rail traveller , I find it convenient to get to where I need to relatively quickly . Well worth a visit .

    I went to school in Chester le Street many years ago so I know the area very well, I now live in Scotland so a visit, although just overnight was excellent. It’s a very historical area with the cathedral and castle in Durham just above the river Wear and has very much ‘Oldie World Charm’. The cathedral has St Cuthbert’s bones laid to rest there and there’s so much more history in the area including two more castles at Chester le Street, Lumley and Lambton ( where the famous ‘Lambton Worm’ song comes from.) It was a very short, sweet visit but the hotel was excellent.

    So much to love and enjoy at Lumley.

    So much to love and enjoy at Lumley. The historic location and building are exceptional. The beautiful grounds and planting greet you first, there must be a team of skilled gardeners maintaining it. Inside the castle it's snug and welcoming and the music is gentle, relaxing and unobtrusive. The food was fabulous. I had a lamb dish followed by sticky toffee pudding, I highly recommend both. I noticed the interesting vegetarian alternatives on the menu. Breakfast was a delight, a buffet with cold meats, cheeses, breads, fruit salads, yogurts, breads, etc. And of course a good choice of cooked breakfasts. We had the full English breakfast, very tasty, next time I'm going to try the Craster Kippers. Our room was lovely, we stayed in a superior Courtyard Room. The bed was huge and extremely comfortable. The shower was powerful and easy to operate. All the staff were friendly and so willing to help. Everywhere was spotlessly clean. We spent time sitting in the Library Bar or outside in the secret garden. It was a very relaxing stay and we felt very well looked after. To top it all, in the morning when we were checking out Lady Poppet Lumley took time to chat with us, in all her feline loveliness. Thank you everyone at Lumley for a wonderful stay.

    This is our second time staying here. We love coming here. Me and my sister bring our children away for a few days in the summer holidays and its getting harder to find hotels that accommodate all of us so this is absolutely perfect for us. Its the perfect distance from beamish which is our reason for coming up here. The house is nicely furnished. The proper bed in the second bedroom and the foldable table downstairs were nice additions this year. We will no doubt be back again next year
