Good choice if you do not want to be in a busy town environment. Room very clean and plenty of space. Breakfast very good, restaurant reasonable and good food but not enough choices for vegetarians ! The restaurant is open to the general public and quite busy. Stayed here because we wanted to visit both Durham and Newcastle. The park... More

Took my mam here for mothers day thought we could have a nice meal in restaurant, but got put in bar right next to door that kept opening and was so cold. The member of staff that sat us down had no customer service skills at all, didn't realise that if your seated in bar you had to get up... More

Stayed here at the end of October and really impressed. We agree with all the excellent points that other travellers have written - immaculate, clean and comfortable bedroom, friendly, efficient and helpful staff, given an early check-in which was very convenient, very good food at the pub too - altogether can't fault this stay which was also top value for...

We stayed at The Moorings last night (26/10/2012) after a day at Beamish. After a long, fun, but cold, day we received a warm welcome to lovely warm rooms. A modern addition to the original old pub. Simple in design but high spec, very clean and cosy. A double for my husband and myself and a twin across the hall... More

Our previous night was a disaster so ending a day sleep deprived , we checked in to the heavenly Moorings Hotel. Even without our previous night experience this is a very nice hotel. New and modern, the room was well furnished and clean. A lovely tub shower combination with lots of hot water. The bed was comfortable and big. Once... More

First of all, it was easy to find with sat-nav/GPS. Plenty of car parking out the back. Nobody was at reception so I had to go into the pub bar to get service. The room I was allocated was upstairs in a modern wing of the pub. It was well equipped and contained quality fittings and furniture. It was very... More

Having stopped off here for a bar meal en route we were very disappointed at the general standard. The food (fish and chips) was a long time being served, the chips were soggy white and the fish batter tasted rancid and burnt.It did not appear anyone was in charge, we said to the waitress who cleared the plates that the...

Advised by a business collegue to try.. great recommendation. Great room, food, host, and value for money, would highly recommend for business or pleasure Great attention to detail in many areas. For business travellers a very welcome alternative to corporate hotels.... no swimming pool, but I hear some rooms have a hot tub.

Stayed here for 1 night in June. The room was spacious and clean, the bathroom was large. The room had doors that open out which would be nice on a summers night but due to the weather (high winds and rain) we didn't open them. The bar area staff friendly and helpful, we didn't dine in the bar, but we... More
