Top Barnard Castle Hotel Reviews

Langley Castle Hotel

Langley Castle Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"My husband and I stayed here for our honeymoon and we had a wonderful stay. All of the staff was a pleasure to talk with. We stayed in the tower suit on the fifth and top floor. Be aware there is no elevator but they do have a small lift for your suitcase and staff can bring up for you. The lounge and bar area was beautiful to sit in. We also had dinner at the castle and it was fantastic. the chef prepared us some extra dishes that were delicious we felt like we were treated like royalty. At 1015 every day they do a tour of the castle and talk about the history. Our guide was very knowledgeable and kept it fun and light hearted. The grounds also has peacocks we had a fun time walking around looking for them. Over all it was a wonderful stay and I highly recommend it."

8/10 Good
"Didn’t pay the extra £15 per person in order to use the pool - that’s extortionate when you are already a resident! Facilities looked nice however. Decor of whole hotel lovely. Waiter Joe was really good in the evening. Room suffers from road noise if you have to have the window open (it was hot!) - understandable as it is very convenient to the M6 junction."

"A very pleasant hotel, ideal for exploring Durham and Newcastle. Pros: helpful and friendly staff, a spacious and clean room, and a swimming pool. Unfortunately, there’s an extra charge for parking. From the outside, the building could be better maintained and cleaned (dirty window sills)."
