Only had time to stay one night, but wish it was longer. Excellent little country hotel, good value, good meals and great hospitality. Nice walks locally and not far from some various attractions.

Booked as part of a Coast2Coast ride and staying in The Old Coach House added to the fun. A bike-friendly local. The staff were great and a good atmosphere in the bar.

Ideal single apartment adjacent to a busy local in a wonderful St John’s Chapel, Weardale location..with very close proximity to the ‘top of the world’ (Noah’s View Point) Road across to Teesdale. Good pub food and a couple of real ales… Just what was needed after a long drive!

This place was amazing, the owners were so friendly, we had a warm welcome and they made sure we was happy at every turn, the food in the Adjacent pub was fantastic value, we had a steak that was very tasty and tried the curry's that were on offer, the breakfast was delicious and plentyful, the room was modern, clean and the bed extremely comfortable, and all thats before you venture out and enjoy the views, just a short drive away your in the middle of the Pennies and can drive for miles without even seeing another car, can not recommend this place enough. Also a Co.op in the village for all your bedroom snacks.

Probably the best place I’ve stayed in a long time. The food at the pub is first class and home cooked, non of the usual pub clone food. The room was immaculate and very comfortable, bed was great and the shower was fantastic. Thoroughly recommend this place, I’ll be back.

Very prompt friendly and efficient book in even though staff were preparing for a busy night, room immaculate and clean all new bathroom. The drive to and from the hotel was breathtaking especially if you head for Carlisle like I did. Thanks for having me I hope to visit again. Best wishes Michael

The room was newly built and there were touches of decorating in progress but it didn’t detract from the comfort and convenience of the amenities. Neat en suite walk in shower and convenient basin and loo. Really friendly and helpful owners and staff, excellent dinner and cooked breakfast. My wife wanted muesli and they apologised that they had none. By morning there was an open pack of Muesli on the table, someone had brought it from home!
