Everything was as expected,

The welcome and service was good and friendly. Good food. Actors brilliant with interesting twists. Good accommodation with delightful 4 footed ling eared neighbours. A few practical points: Entrance sign on the road hidden behind trees on inside bend - no time to turn left safely. Instructions on use of shower need to be provided, particularly with warning that water can become scalding hot.

We stayed at The George Hotel Chollerford. Super dog friendly, lovely room, friendly staff, comfortable bar area. The downside was the swimming pool was out of action. Would definitely stay there again.

Just amazing we loved it it was beautiful and warm tidy and Just to open the half door in the morning and see the sheep and the hills beautiful, Mt dog loved the exercise area and it was just so quiet with a riding school ponies going past we will make this a regular stay now

Excellent stay…lovely setting…bedroom great size…both dinner and breakfast wonderful

Nice night away, good dog friendly room and nice meals

We had a voucher gift, were amazed by the experience of staying in this remarkable castle, such an ambitious building and awesome setting on the crag staring at the real ancient Beeston Castle on the opposite crag. Classic bedroom (the budget end of their offer) is certainly Victorian-looking, heavy brocades, but bathroom v good and it was in keeping w the castle's period. V good pork fillet & braised beef dishes in 1851 restaurant, great garlicky broccoli, lovely smooth celeriac soup, & with bottle of wine £55 each, good value for that quality. Breakfast marvellous croissants, fresh fruit salad, good hams & cheese, plus decent hot offers - but insipid coffee! surprising. Brasserie dinner 2nd night not so assured (overdone prawns, sauces splurged on without much thought) yet comparable dish prices to 1851 which isn't ideal. But well handled problem with sour beer, immediately properly replaced & not charged at all. Bedding & toiletries good quality. Explored atmospheric wine cellar & great hall (where bridal party were rehearsing). Garden courtyard perfect for the castle & astounding views in the wood surrounding if you wander down the Landrover Experience track. Saw a lot of busy gardening staff, a great sign. Felt this place is getting a lot of love from its owners & staff, & that reflected back to us as customers. Really impressed, especially as we were voucher customers. I felt the Peckforton team welcomed us there.
