We also purchased the Travelzoo DB&B deal with an extra night discounted B&B. On arrival we were shown to one of the downstairs rooms (dog friendly as we had our border collie with us). The room was large & nicely decorated and smelled - of sewage. The hotel was obviously having a problem with the drains. There is a glass-topped... More

On staying here for my mothers' 80th birthday in April, and having just this morning eventually received a reply back from the management to our concerns I have to say this was one of the worst places we have ever stayed at. Rude staff, appalling receptionist, lousy portions, double-charged meals and general shocking service. Never again.

Lovely building,large spacious room with good sized ensuite,over the bath shower,room was cold due in part to fierce gale force winds. Loved closing the shutters on the windows at night. Pillows and towels need replacing. Dinner in the Oak room was delicious as was our meal on second night in the Stable bar. All staff were efficient and friendly.

Stopped in room 18 which was very spacious, my partner thought the bed was was of the most comfortable she had ever slept in. Yes the decor is modern and i am not sure how many channels the tv had, but again you are staying in a castle in the middle of Northumberland, the place and area are steeped in... More

Our group stayed here for three nights on a dinner bed & breakfast basis. Our room (also Room 8, mentioned earlier here) was very nice and large, with plenty of space to unwind and unpack. The bed was one of the most uncomfortable I have ever slept in and my friends all agreed that all beds were extremely uncomfortable, so... More

Lets start with the positive: Great staff who do not deserve the flack that they have to endure because of the poor accomodation. Do not be taken in by the exterior pictures and especially the interior on their web site. We were offered room 15 and immediately asked to be moved but were forced to stay as they were full....

Very warm welcome when eventually a receptionist arrived. Large, comfortable room. The en suite could have done with new sealant around bath. After check in we went to the Bar/Bistro for a drink before dinner, this is accessed from outside the building. Again we had a lengthy wait before a server appeared. There is absolutely no atmosphere when it is... More

We stayed at Otterburn Castle with a Travelzoo voucher; remarkable value for money. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly without being intrusive, resulting in excellent service. Food at dinner and breakfast was delicious and well presented. Although the room decor was a little "tired", the room was very clean. Would make a return visit.
