Top Raby Castle Hotel Reviews

Redworth Hall Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay at Redworth hall, would recommend"

Manor House Hotel

8/10 Good

"Basic double courtyard rooms. Spacious rooms but standard double beds - though from the indentations on the carpet in mine, a Queen or King resided there before. Even so, the base "flat" sheets did not fit the mattress to the head exposing no protector. Total lack of information in my room (27) that was there in our daughter's (25) regarding wifi access and other info. I had to wash a tea cup in my room that had a sticky residue at the bottom of it and clear lip residue around the rim. No mixer taps for the bath or basin - fine. I'm British - I can "mix my own bath". But there is something uniquely annoying about a hand basin where the taps are set so far back the water only just reaches the basin. The blind in my room was functional but lop-sided and needs attentjon."

Runa Farm

8/10 Good

"Stayed here for overnight for our fifth anniversary. The hotel is in lovely surroundings and looks amazing. The staff are all friendly and helpful. However, after staying it’s clear this venue is certainly more geared towards being a wedding venue, rather than a hotel. We were very kindly given a bottle of Prosecco for the occasion, which was very lovely. However, the room we were given was tiny, with a gap of around 8 inches between the bed and the wall, and was located directly above both reception and the bar toilets, so we could hear other guests checking in word-for-word, as well as taps and hand dryers every few minutes. I raised this with staff who again very kindly offered an alternative room which was much bigger and more appropriate - however still slightly noisy with doors throughout the venue being heard shutting. However, we were very lucky that this other room was the last available, otherwise we’d have been stuck with the other. The receptionist explained this happens often with non-wedding guests, which we totally understood but there is no indication when booking that the venue is meant to be a ‘drop the bags, attend the wedding, sleep, and go’. Again, the setting, staff and restaurant were all great. But we were slightly disappointed that the initial room was so inadequate and that this is seen as standard just because they primarily cater to weddings. Would recommend to anyone for a wedding, but any other stay I’d be less inclined."

High Spec 1-bed Cottage in Staindrop, Darlington

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful cottage, very cosy and in a perfect location. Bath is just wow! Couldn’t fault it and will happily return"

1 bedroom accommodation in Copley, Bishop Auckland

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful little holiday home, situated perfectly in the quiet, peaceful countryside. Small shop about a 5 min drive away in Copley, but we rarely wanted to leave the place, it was that lovely! All the amenities you need to be comfy, and our dog loved the spacious, fenced-in yard. We got the hot tub going right away and got in every day. Can't wait to go back - we're already booking our next trip!"

The Old Chapel Retreat

10/10 Excellent

"A brilliant holiday home that had everything we needed and more. Everything was clean and comfortable. The children loved the games room with pool tables. The welcome pack was a lovely touch! It was a great place to explore the area."

2 bedroom accommodation in Ovington, near Richmond

10/10 Excellent

"The cottage was beautiful. A very acceptable welcome pack was left for us. We could not fault it at all. We would definitely go back?"
