Hotels With Swimming Pools in Northumberland, United Kingdom

we have just returned from a truly wonderful family wedding occasion at Linden Hall. It was superb in every respect. They offer an all in package with celebration room, drinks and canapes, wedding breakfast, evening disco with DJ, hot/cold evening buffet and the services of coordinator and master of ceremonies. everything was handled brilliantly, ran smoothly and met the wishes of the bridal party. Many thanks to Pav and her team for coordination and to Anthony our MC on the day for the smooth running of the various stages. Also to Danielle and the team on reception for handling many queries. Our guests, many of whom stayed at the hotel, were unanimous in their praise for the meal, ceremony and facilities of Linden Hall. In particular we were impressed by the extensive grounds to walk in and the spa facilities. The weather was kind and it was a fabulous day at this highly recommended venue.

We arrived early and our room was ready. The spa facilities were adequate. Only comment is some update needed to the rock effect around the pool. The food in the Clarets jug was fine. Dessert bit disappointing. The staff very friendly and Neville not sure his title but was a perfect gentleman. He transported our luggage to and from our bedroom with no effort. Neville was very polite and friendly. Hope to see him next time we visit.

The hotel is new, spacious and well equipped. There is a children's activity area in the hall where children can read and play, and older children can also play table football. The hotel also offers dinner, and there is a bar for drinks. The room is very spacious. Most of the holiday family rooms booked during the trip are in the same condition. This room is the most spacious. The sofa bed is still spacious and comfortable. If you are traveling with children passing by here, living here is very suitable.

Langley Castle. Big thank you, to ALL the Langley Castle team for making our stay so special and magical. I had no idea where I was going until we arrived at the castle. All I knew, is we were staying overnight and dinner will be a fine dining experience, and one of the best we have had over the years. Driving through the forest and following the long winding road, we finally arrived at Langley Castle woodland estate Northumberland . I thought to myself’ as the castle came into view ‘ OMG. As we both walked towards the castle it was utterly breath taking, with the huge fountain sitting so elegant in front of the castle, along with the truly beautiful landscape surroundings . We walked through the huge wooden door of the castle’ and into the grand castle hallway- WOW 😮 just WOW. The castle is steeped in history. Knights stand stall in traditional armour, a beautiful wooden staircase that traveled as far up’ as the eyes could see, along with stunning period furniture, flags and pictures that blended in so well with this 640 year old castle , and 7 feet wide stone walls. The magnificent drawing room, with blazing log fire, traceries and stained glass, together with the oak-panelled cocktail bar, compliment the intimate nature of the Josephine Restaurant. The food served in the restaurant is of the highest order boasting a 2AA Rosette, making the most of fresh, local produce, with fish and game a speciality. Once we were checked in, we were shown to our room. As we made our way to the featured room called the- Derwentwater room, after Earls of Derwentwater (James and Charles Radcliffe) and both Earls were executed at the Tower of London for their parts in the Jacobite Rebellions of 1715 and 1745. A shrine to the brothers lies a short walk . Once again as we entered the room ‘WOW’ 😮 The room was magnificent to say the least, with its beautiful four poster bed, high ceilings, draped beautiful red curtains, fireplace, and stunning period furniture. Author JK Rowling came to stay in this Castle, not once but FOUR times, to gain inspiration for the Harry Potter books.

Stuart Madnick, the John Norris Maguire Professor of Information Technology and Engineering Systems, has owned Langley Castle in England since 1985.

Nice decor etc, but service was a shambles. Instead of being guided to our rooms the receptionist just stood and pointed at the three different directions our party of five were meant to go in. The Bar was 'fully booked' with all tables reserved. Blank looks from tattooed barman when we asked for drinks, as if to say 'can't you see we are fully booked?' The bar was almost empty. We felt guilty for troubling him. Breakfast was Fawlty Towers. We booked as a party of five, but no five seater table was available. We waited for two to be pushed together and re-laid. The first day we asked for de-caf tea and got de-caf coffee. We asked for toast and got four slices for five people. A full-English minus sausage arrived which nobody had ordered. Porridge was cold. Bacon was forgotten from two orders. The second day was no better. Honestly, it's hard to remember service as bad in a 'posh' venue. We were glad we didn't book for dinner.

On arrival we were greeted by a gentleman behind the reception desk who was very helpful and arranged for a table in the dining room for us to eat at in the evening. Our room was Number: 120 and we were told that it was at the end of the corridor on the first floor which we discovered to be the last room in the hotel, not sure if we were given this room because we didn’t book direct with the hotel or not. On opening the bedroom door we were quite taken back with one or two problems. There was no heating in the room apart from an oil filled heater that wasn’t even switched on and when we looked to turn the main radiator on we found that the heating system was switched off completely and there was a massive stain on the carpet which looked like there had been a leak at some time. The room was very basic and there was various sections of wallpaper that was peeling off the walls. The bathroom was very clean apart from the corrosion around the wall lights which was very off putting. Our dinner at night wasn’t great, my wife had the Sea Bass which was very small and I opted for the Steak & Ale Pie expecting it to be home made but when it turned up I could see that it had been bought in, the green beans on both of our plates were undercooked thus making them un-eatable, we mentioned this to one of the servers but nothing was done about it. Breakfast in the morning was self service and was OK apart from the fried eggs being undercooked which were sitting with raw egg white around the yolks, I had to ask for a fresh egg which need to be turned over to make sure it was cooked. On the whole we thought the hotel was tired and could do with a re-vamp in certain areas. The young lady that checked us out in the morning was like a breath of fresh air, its just a pity that all of the staff weren’t like her as one or two of them looked as if they didn’t want to be there.
