"We used the Pickled Parson as a home base for a month while visiting family. The room we had for that duration of a stay was a little small, but it was comfortable, clean and made up daily. The staff were all amazing and really made us feel at home. A very relaxed atmosphere with great breakfast options. The bar was a great option to wind down at the end of the day with a night cap. Situated on the village green, it is a perfect place to sit out in the warmer weather with great tea shops and...

Top National Railway Museum at Shildon Hotel Reviews

Park Head Hotel

8/10 Good

"Overall, my stay was a pleasant and straightforward experience - the room was comfortable, everything was in order, and the check-in process was smooth. However, I was quite disappointed to be disturbed by housekeeping early in the morning. As this was a one-night stay and it was well before check-out time, the visit was entirely unnecessary and caught me (and the family) off guard. Being woken up unexpectedly is frustrating at the best of times, and the manner in which staff knocked, and used their key to open the door, was abrupt and rather rude. I'd kindly ask that housekeeping schedules take into account the length of a guest's stay - a single-night booking really doesn't require a morning visit, particularly so early. I hope this feedback is useful, as it's the only thing that put a dampener on what was otherwise a very agreeable stay."

Hall Garth Hotel Darlington, Sure Hotel Collection by BW

8/10 Good

"The hotel is set in lovely grounds and the view from the breakfast room was delightful. Breakfast was a normal hotel spread and well set out. Staff were all friendly and helpful and the room was clean though very dark because I was on the wooded side of the building. The big let down was the state of the windows which must have been neglected for years and had to be propped open with a block of wood left on the window sill. General decoration was in need of a refurb and the main entrance doorway was in need of repainting. I assume the whole building is due an update and I'm sure it will all be lovely next time I book in."

Walworth Castle Hotel, BW Signature Collection

10/10 Excellent

"Walworth castle exceeded our expectations. From start to finish it was fantastic and our daughter enjoyed her birthday stay. The staff were lovely. Breakfast was great with lots of choice. The castle itself is beautiful and the grounds are all very well maintained. The dungeon and play park was a hit with our girls and they’re still talking about it a week later. Our only regret was staying for just one night! A little happy birthday message left in the room for our daughter was a nice touch, thank you!"
