We stayed for 2 nights on a Tuesday & Wednesday night. We were greeted by a really lovely & friendly lady, Sharon, who went above & beyond to be helpful (I dropped my jacket in a puddle and Sharon came to the rescue!) Our room was fabulous - it was on the front of the hotel & it was perfect in every way, with high quality bedding, towels & fabulous toiletries. We had dinner on the first night which was absolutely delicious there such a fabulous choice on the menu. Breakfast was fab & relaxing & again an amazing choice. Finally, all of the staff were so lovely and friendly, from reception staff to house keeping. Our only wish is that we wish we’d booked in for a longer stay! Thank you for a wonderful stay. I highly recommend & we’ll definitely be back next time we visit Northumberland.…

An excellent stay (our second). Lovely friendly welcome and service. Fantastic food too for both dinner and breakfast. It was especially good to be able to customise our breakfast choices as hot food is cooked to order. Looking forward to our next visit.

Stayed for one night in room 4. Room was very well presented and clean. Lovely little touches for our dog too! Booked in for our evening meal and very glad we did. Food and service were exceptional. Lovely atmosphere in the lounge shared with some other dog lovers! Breakfast was equally good. All in all a fabulous stay and highly recommended. Our first visit to Warkworth but definitely won’t be our last. Special mention to the waiting staff and very friendly smiling receptionist. Excellent service provided by all. Thank you!

Went to dinner and took our Welsh Terrier dog along as the hotel is fodder friendly. Lots of other diners had the same idea but all the dogs were well behaved. Service was friendly and efficient. The dining room had a good ambience. We had the burger and the chicken/pancetta dish. Both were excellent. We also shared the sticky toffee which was also good. Would definitely return…

We had previously eaten at the hotels restaurant and been very impressed so when in the area again with the in laws, decided to book to stay. We were very pleased we did! We were greeted warmly and directed to a very pleasant double room at the front of the hotel and asked if we would like to book a table for our evening meal, which we did- another good choice! We ended up eating here both nights and between the 4 of us sampled most dishes on the menu all of which were great quality and served in generous portions. Breakfast was similarly excellent. What really made the trip memorable was the service we received from every member of staff we encountered, nothing was too much trouble and really made for a lovely relaxed atmosphere, will certainly visit again.

We stayed in room 21 a superia double with views over a manicured garden or so they said with staff who can't do enough .. the truth is cheap bedding shabby bed and poor service the hotel is licked at 9.30 with no access to any facilities with a fire roll call left on reception in case of a fire as non of this family run hotel stay on site. We expected a relaxing overnight stay of but stayed in room that doesn't bring any of the benefits the website suggest. The staff are all very young around 16 and dish out the weatherspoons style of food and service. The bathroom is nice The rooms main light is hanging loose on the cable as the chain to support it has snapped and I hit my head twice so I left a chair in the middle of the room to stop me doing so. To say the room as faded slendor is a bit of a joke . We booked a meal in the restaurant for 4 and a dog 🐕 the food was poor for the price along with the wine my sister ordered a coffee at the end of the meal and was presented with various sugars in paper packets similar to burger King she used sackerine by mistake which she is allergic to we asked to change the coffee which the waiter did after asking why she'd used the wrong sugar this would bring on a margarine they charged for the coffee we sent back. When we quired this the manager said you put the sugar in your paying for it I'm incredibly disappointed with this hotel as as we said to the duty manager we won't be coming back Finally I'd say if your gay stay well away the friendly family run hotel doesn't extend to our sort homophobia is alive and kicking here.…

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review which is an extremely disappointing one to read, I am sorry to read you did not enjoy your stay with us. We do however feel that some of your comments/accusations have been exaggerated and if taken seriously by others could have a seriously detrimental affect on the hotel and all of the staff who work here, I would like to now take this opportunity to respond. I would firstly like to address your comments regarding the room you stayed. Room 21 is one of our most popular superior doubles, with it being based on the second floor, and giving a more uninterrupted view of the gardens opposite the hotel and of the village main thoroughfare. It is disappointing that you feel that it didn’t meet your expectations and that the room was faded splendour. Due to the age of the building there are many quirky, slightly off centred features throughout the hotel, these are usually commented on by guests as adding character to the building, the hotel was built in the early 1800s so does have a lot of history and retains many of its original features as the building is classed as a 2 star listed protected property there is very little we are able to change, nor would we want to. All of our rooms are constantly maintained and updated, and the shabby chic style of Room 21, is positively commented on by numerous guests that stay in that room. We are aware that the main light does hang low and we are in the process of sourcing a new light fixture that will compliment the room as well as eliminating the risk of guests banging their heads. We were however unaware of the damage to the fixture, this has now been repaired, until it can be replaced. We take offense to your comments about the bedding, all our linen is of the highest quality and showing a picture of an unmade bed ruffled after sleeping does not portray the reality of what you would have been presented with when you checked in. Our housekeeping team work exceptionally hard to ensure that all rooms are cleaned to the highest standard and would never have left a room in a substandard condition for a guest to be greeted with. In regards to the hotel being closed overnight, most smaller family run hotels like ourselves operate with no night porter and will leave an evacuation list with an emergency contact number as is required by law. Having spoken to the team on shift that evening, we are left puzzled by your comment of the hotel being shut by 9.30pm, especially as none of our staff had left by that time. I would now like to address your comments regarding the meal and service you received on Sunday evening. You mention that you thought that the food was poor but you have not elaborated on which part you thought was not up to scratch. We are slightly confused by your comparison of us to Wetherspoons. Our chefs work extremely hard to provide food of the highest quality, and if they are not happy with a dish they will not send it out, to suggest otherwise is a slight on our kitchen practices at the hotel. Also if a guest is not happy with a dish when it is received we do our upmost to rectify it as quickly as possible. We aim for a warm relaxed casual dining experience in our bistro with a welcoming atmosphere where our guests can relax and chat over a drink and some wonderful freshly prepared food. Our front of house team includes several young waitresses who work hard to ensure that every guest is looked after. Our team has worked tirelessly over a very busy summer period, and have been highly praised all summer long for the service that they have provided, we understand that some mistakes may be made at some point but we continually offer training to ensure that these things don’t continue to happen and affect our guests. Having checked with our staff on duty with regards the situation with the coffee that you have mentioned, I am satisfied that the situation was fixed quickly and that we had offered to take the coffee off the final bill but the lady in question insisted on paying for it. At no point after this were anymore issues raised to the duty manager on shift in the evening, or in the morning upon check out, when you were asked how your stay with us had been. This would have been the ideal time to bring up any upsets that you had experienced so we could have tried to rectify them and provide you with a more positive end to your stay. Unfortunately you have chosen to air your grievances on a very public platform where this is little we can say or do to change your opinion. I would finally like to address your most serious accusation that comes with potentially harmful consequences which is the unfounded comment of the homophobic treatment you categorically did not receive during any point of your stay. We pride ourselves on being a safe and supportive space for all members of the LGBTQ+ community, and would never be anything else. We can only hope this clears up some of the points you have raised again and would like to assure you of our best intentions at all time. I can only once again express how genuinely disappointed I feel that we were unable to satisfy your expectations on this occasion. I hope that this response can clear up some of your frustrations and grievances.

From the start we were made very welcome and much fuss was made of the dog. The room was very comfortable and we were fed and watered very well with the dog alongside us, even after a trip to the beach. We thoroughly enjoyed our four day stay and recommend this hotel when visiting the region .
