Philip

This is a lovely hotel. All the staff we met were friendly and helpful. Ate in the restaurant at night and the food was very good as was the breakfast. It was so nice being able to use the spa facilities for no extra cost and again the staff were extremely helpful and friendly. Booked purely because it was a convenient base to visit Kynren but we would have no hesitation in paying a return visit.

Louise United Kingdom

A charming English manor house close to the A1 road, with a gym, swimming pool, sauna and spa. Wi-Fi is free in public areas and food is served all day.

Built on foundations which date back to the 12th Century, the hotel is reputed to have been Henry VIII’s hunting lodge and home to the Eden family. It houses secret passages and even a friendly ghost or two!

Set in its own landscaped grounds and equipped with multi-functional rooms and a spa, it is an ideal base for exploring County Durham's many attractions. These include Durham Cathedral and Castle, the Durham Dales, Bishop Auckland, and Barnard Castle.

Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 8.2 for a two-person trip.

“Manor House Hotel, changes, but not for the better”
- • Leisure trip

- • Submitted from a mobile device
A lovely lounge room has been changed to a rather cramped dining room and the lovely comfy sofas and chairs in the sun lounge have been replaced with stand chairs, it used to so busy in there but during my 3 night stay I never saw it used! It appears that there have been som changes, but not for the better.
I love the atmosphere of this hotel, the staff are lovely, especially Sarah who is always really cheerful, and a bonus is guests can use pool and spa facilities at no extra cost.

Couldn't open the windows wide enough as it was hot!
The room was fine for us and the dogs but because it was so hot we could not open the windows far enough. We did realise we could have asked for a fan but didn't know until too late. Worked the shower out just too late as the water was extremely hot. But on the whole the staff were very good, food very good and reasonably priced - all in all we will hopefully stay again next year but hopefully get either a ground floor room or a room with bigger windows.!

“Not value for money ”

1. Room had cobwebs and spiders. 2. Breakfast not value for money. 3. Hotel check in not well signposted, some doors were jammed, so had to go through bar to check in, nor is breakfast area signposted, had to ask other guests how to find breakfast area 3. Generally I would have liked a bit more effort from staff at reception to welcome guests, ie. What facilities are available at hotel, 4. My room was in the courtyard, foul smell in the building 5. Window in bathroom where people could see you shower

The staff were not particularly polite or helpful on reception and the bar tender was extremely grumpy. The sausages and bacon at breakfast were a fairly poor quality and the entire group of four guests complained about this. Two of the four guests could not get cold water out of the tap in the bathrooms, and one guest only got cold water in the shower.
The location was very good, as well as the shower.
