A beautiful location, staying within an actual castle grounds. The breakfast was amazing and catered for myself and my partner who is vegetarian. All members of staff were really friendly including the cat that greeted me as I went for breakfast. The only negative was how loud the room above was ...

Nice, clean and tidy. A friendly place and close to the start of the Great North Run which was ideal. Nice views of St. James Place.

We were visiting the Beamish museum and the whole area was good. People very friendly.
Quiet northern village.
A trip to The Emirates Riverside to watch the cricket, and we had 2 great nights at the Moorings. Lovely friendly staff, great meals and drinks , very comfy bed, and room. Special mention to Ron,s Taxi, who took us to and back from the cricket.
Food while been excellent didn’t have a great choice
