Fabulous stay
Our stay at the Centre of Britain was very enjoyable - David was the perfect host and all the staff were so helpful and friendly. All our rooms were different and some were amazing - the hotel was spotless, the breakfast delicious and we all thoroughly enjoyed the evening meals we had. The hotel is ideally situated and we were able to easily visit some very lovely places - including obviously Hadrian's Wall

Perfect
We were given a lovely little lodge in courtyard with downstairs Tv area & bathroom and a mezzanine upper where the comfiest of beds were situated. The bathroom was beautiful, massive shower cubicle!
The hosts were brilliant, even down to being shown which parts of the building were eldest & a centuries old stone winding staircase that was used by soldiers in the days of fighting over the English Scottish border.
Breakfast was included & was beautiful.
If we’re ever in the area again we’d definitely stay here.

Cycling stay
Well we arrived at 4 p/m and were greeted by a friendly staff member who imidiatly told us that the restaurant was shut and we would have to make our own food arrangements!
We settled into our room and I went back to the hotel (we were in an annex ) to ask for some utensils and plates as we were going to get a takeaway only to find that the hotel was shut and all the lights were off ! So we had to buy cutlery and plates from the local store
Breakfast was nice except that my wife had breakfast potatoes that were rock hard?
We we’d stay again but not on a Sunday night if they shut!
They could have informed us and then we cud have planned something else

Great Reception from David.
What a raconteur-made us very welcome.
Quality of Food & Drink options were good.
Breakfast was excellent masterminded by Angela who demonstrated an above average degree of attention to detail.
Slight drawback with poor WiFi

Good place to stay
Stayed in one of the off site apartments. Large, comfortable and quiet. The car park is small. A couple of cars had taken up 4 spaces between them so had to park on the street. As long as you’re leaving relatively early that’s ok. Good breakfast.
