Our son and daughter in law surprised us with a gourmet break overnight stay at Northcote and it is something we will never forget. We were made at home as soon as we walked through the door. The staff were so attentative although they were very busy. We stayed in room 10 which was very spacious, the decor was very... more

having looked forward to the visit for a while, was disappointed with the service in the bar which was borderline rude, the restaurant was entirely beige and had no atmosphere, being told what was on my plate would have been a nice touch if the lady had been interested, not until we had finished our meals (for a good ten... more

Stayed 1 night and ate their 5 course tasting menu. Superb food and rooms. more

Stayed on a 1 night gournet break which was a truly fantastic experience. The rooms are spacious, classy and very well equipped; ours had a lovely view over the gardens. We were situated on the ground floor and had a patio door with outside seating. This would have been more appreciated in Summer but still nice to have, especially for... more

Have just experienced one of Northcote's popular 'Gourmet' evenings, and the entire one-night stay, from the Molton Brown toiletries in the bathroom, to the fantastic five-course menu was exceptional.

I booked a one night Gourmet Break for my wife's birthday. It was lovely. The food was excellent and the room we stayed in (Room 1) had recently been refurbished (see photos). It was a large room with an equally large bathroom with bath (comfortably large enough for two) and separate shower. We especially liked the optional cool blue light... more

We recently stayed at Northcote for a "Gourmet Break", essentially a dinner, bed and breakfast package. Our room (no 8) was well appointed and furnished to a high standard. It had obviously benefitted from a recent refurbishment. The bed was large and comfortable, and extras such as a Bose radio with i-pod dock were very welcome. Our room had a... more

The bedroom was decorated in a modern style, and with a sleek, modern bathroom in this Victorian hotel. We admired the far reaching view from our own little terrace across rolling countryside to the moors. When booking the room we had booked the 5-course gourmet dinner, and it was a superb affair. We particularly enjoyed the Lancashire cheese souffle with... more
