Very nice hotel

Had a lovely one night stay, comfortable room and very nice bar with very friendly staff and a resident Cat :) . Food was very good and fantastic breakfast options. They also have an observatory at the back of the hotel if you want to experience Dark Sky astronomy, unfortunately cloud cover on our stay but would certainly go back.

A last-minute decision for us to stay having booked to eat in the restaurant and we weren't disappointed. Our room was spotlessly clean and more spacious than expected. We needed to look for someone in order to check in but in all other respects the staff were very welcoming and attentive.

Excellent stay

The staff were all very helpful & attentive to our needs. The room was very spacious & well equipped with the added gesture of complementary fruit. An excellent range of food to choose from for breakfast & the quality was very good, along with the service. The hotel was clean & welcoming. Would definitely recommend.

You can see the owners are ploughing the profits back into the hotel. Lots of attention going into the detail of the hotel and hiring of profesional tradesmen. Although the food was good it had a limited menu for our tastes.

We had a room with two singles as were quite late in booking the room the room itself was nice, a decent size but the bathroom had a slight smell, not an unclean smell, just a smell. The bar and restaurant was great. The food for our evening meal was lovely and breakfast was really nice as well. We booked to go to the Dark Sky observatory on the night which was really good, not something we have done before. Roy who led the evening was very good, a fantastic knowledge of all things Astronomical. Overall we were very happy with Battlesteads.

We were walking the Reivers Way. We had a great welcome. The room was excellent, very spacious, clean and comfortable with a bath, just what was needed after a days walk. The restaurant food was excellent and good value. Unfortunately my wife said her hip was hurting. The following morning my wife hip was still hurting so we decided to discontinue our walk and to travel home. Unfortunately because of a road closure the bus from Wark to Hexham wasn’t running. The receptionist, contacted her father who very kindly gave us a lift to The station. For which I gave him some money which was to be donated to the hotels charity ‘Water aid’. A fantastic service by a great hotel. We will return again to continue our walk once my wife is feeling better.

I mean, Northumberland is a beautiful place, and this property was no less beautiful. It is the most eco-conscious hotel we've ever stayed in, with it's own garden, solar panels. and I believe a rain catcher? There's so much wildlife in the area, bird feeders and cats roaming around. We got lucky and there was a bit of clear sky our second night, so we headed to the observatory and got to spots some stars since it's in a Dark Sky Park. It was also a great distance to all the sights in the area, particularly Hadrian's Wall and the Roman Forts. Breakfast was fantastic, staff was friendly, food and drink were great. An overalls really fantastic stay.

Relaxing stay

Hotel in lovely village with nice walks around, our room was spacious with a large bed, nice touch with the fruit and biscuits. Given a disabled room although we didn’t book one. Lovely gardens and great food both in the restaurant and breakfast. Service disappointing at dinner as we sat with empty glasses throughout meal until we had to go and ask the same with ordering desserts. Lacked a bit of friendliness by staff.
