Lumley Castle Disappointing
When booking the hotel I specified 2 x adults and a child for my room choice which said sleeps 3. The bed they gave my daughter was like a trampoline and very uncomfortable for her. She would be given a proper single bed in a premier inn at £29, not what I expected for £100 pounds a night.
