Find Hotel with a Concierge in Alston

"Had a wonderful stay and the food was excellent The best chateau-briand I’ve had in years The hotel is a really welcoming place lovely lounge bar reception area They’ve thought of everything Looking forward to our next stay "

"Beautiful grounds with amazing views. Lovely facilities which were clean - the gym and pool were both really clean and well equipped and maintained. The room was comfortable (a few signs of use but nothing major) and clean, a good size and importantly very quiet - had an excellent couple of nights sleep. Breakfast was a buffet which was good but the hot food had been standing for some time as eggs were a bit rubbery and hard although the fried bread was delicious and the selection of fruit, breads and other baked good was excellent. We walked around the grounds on the way-marked trails. We think some of the way markers were missing so had a few areas where we got lost (we did the orange, red and purple walks). On the orange walk in particular orange triangles rather than arrows were used and it was sometimes difficult to work out where to go and on three occasions the path was quite overgrown (totally impassable in one instance so we had to work a way around). That said they were lovely walks - our Garmin watches both measured them as longer than stated. One huge point for us was being able to take our dog and to take him around most areas of the hotel (only the restaurant out of bounds which is absolutely fine as we ate in the bar area). He was welcomed and had a treat and lots of fuss and this really made our stay, thank you!"

"We traveled two weeks in Scotland and Appleby Castle had by far the most delicious dinner. Staff was small but worked hard and swift. Castle was cozy and true to its heritage. "
