Should get 5 stars, but..Inside No9

Perfect location, We booked as visiting the on site Observatory...A must if you stay. The food is exceptional if you book elsewhere come for dinner anyway. Food 5 Star, staff are lovely if not a little elusive from time to time. Rooms have all you need. When you book ask yourself if you're ok going to bed after 11pm and are an early riser...if not, dont book Room 9. This has the flu from the kitchen generator attached to the outer wall and sounds like a car is running its engine next to your room, turns off around 11 and woke us around 7am. After a 3 hour drive an early night or a lay in was needed but neither available.
Staff were accommodating and we moved rooms. The 2nd room was lovely but on the road and whilst a quite village its is an A road so we closed the window making the room too hot. Air conditioning may be a consideration for the future.
Great country pub feel, garden beautiful. Environmentally conscious credentials we're impressive

We really enjoyed our stay for two nights at Battlesteads. Two things really stood out - the food was excellent (except chips - a minor thing), and the staff were consistently friendly, helpful, and welcoming without being overbearing.
The last point, about how all staff were nice to interact with, was a major selling point and is why we will return. A special shout out to Dan ("Dan, Dan, the beverage man") for being so helpful and recommending Flyte - a top tip! Ad Gefrin sold two bottles to us as a result!
Such a pleasant time, great food, and drink, and an impressive walking guide (which we used) and an observatory on the door step!

Fantastic hotel

Fantastic hotel, great staff, great food. Most of the food grown on the premises. Beautiful gardens Dog friendly great atmosphere in the conservatory outside area. Met one of the chefs who gave us tour of the garden polytunnels etc. The ethos behind the hotel is genuine. All the staff seem on board with the principles cannot fault, would recommend to anyone.
We will return

Charming, comfortable and welcoming

When we first arrived at Battlesteads for our Northumbrian holiday with friends I can't pretend I didn't feel a little disappointed. Despite the beautiful gardens and charming characterful building our room felt in need of some tlc. The double en-suite room was however clean and comfortable if a little tired.
The best thing about the hotel is its' wonderful staff who really do go the extra mile and did make our stay a happy one.
Breakfast and dinner were of a consistently high standard with several ingredients straight from the garden. The breakfast menu offered great choice for a hearty meal to start the day and I did appreciate the gluten free options. Dinner every evening was beautifully presented and delicious.
All in all highly recommended, clearly it's not all about luxury accommodation.
