Adequate overnight stay
Good points are that the shower is very powerful and hot, location, parking, bed, and the pub / restaurant. Let down by cleaning standards, mold in bathroom and lots of cobwebs all around the room that are covered in dust.

Amazing especially for the price we paid! Only about 15 mins in a taxi into the centre of Newcastle and had everything you could need. In a lovely location and even though are room faced the road, it was still really quiet. Staff were lovely and everything was very clean, would definitely stay here again if I was to visit Newcastle!

What a GEM
It was a last-minute booking, but what a Gem, all the staff were brilliant, the food was fantastic value. I've stayed in some (suppose) high-class hotels that wouldn't match the meal offered up on the night (special mention to the chef). It was also nice to see that the room was in keeping with the building itself and not boxed off like most hotels, it retained that certain quirkiness, was clean, tidy and very spacious. Would I stay again, most certainly and have already started recommending it. Brilliant venue made even better by fantastic staff portraying that family lead feel.

Toilet not working, cracked bath, tiles falling off the wall, leaking from ceiling everywhere, dirty plates in breakfast room. Then they still have a nerve to charge you extra for overnight parking.

Hi Martin, I’m really sorry to hear this. I shall certainly be looking into the issues within your room. This is not the standards we aim for. Regarding the charge for overnight parking, we don’t charge for this. Our car park is free to use for all. Please do drop me an email on 6222@greeneking.co.uk if you would like to discuss this further. Kind regards,Kyle

A Traditional Country Inn.
We've enjoyed several short breaks at this spacious and stylish 'pub with rooms', and have always found it welcoming and homely. The menu is well-balanced with weekly specials. Nothing is too much trouble for the attentive and friendly staff. Very handily placed as a touring base, too

Stayed here before but this time wasn’t as happy as the room was more squashed and the bathroom was far too small. Had issues trying to turn on/off shower and could hardly get in and out of it for the shape and size of it!

Absolutely beautiful pub inside and out, lovely gardens surrounded by nature. All the staff were really nice and friendly. Food and drink was really nice. We stayed for 2 nights, the breakfast was great value, room was spotless, loved the bathroom, the mattress was a bit hard for me personally. We will definitely be back x

We have just enjoyed a six night stay. We were located in the separate rooms across from the main entrance. Very clean and comfortable…plain but quiet and warm and recently refurbished. The main pub/hotel was excellent with great food and also appears recently refurbished but retaining an authentic feel. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful and cheerfully accommodated a late request for breakfast from this bleary-eyed guest. The location of the hotel is perfect…quiet but close to the A1 so ideal for nipping to wherever you have to be in the area. Will definitely recommend and look to stay again.

Ravensworth 2.0
I have stayed at this hotel before and have always found it welcoming with friendly staff, decent rooms and hearty meals. Its been about 3 or 4 years since last I was here and its changed. It got better the staff were amazing, the rooms have had a makeover and the food is even better than I remember it. My stay was short and sweet as usual but I will return.
