lovely place to stay, felt like a fairytale staying in a castle. the cocktails were super good and not too pricey. staff were friendly and really helpful, made our stay enjoyable. breakfast had a nice variety and was delicious. overall just a cozy and lovely experience!
the room we had was kinda small and the shower situation was not great. also, there was some noise from the other rooms which made it a bit hard to relax.

stunning setting but service lacks attention
the beauty of our Castle State Room was remarkable. The breakfast we had on the first morning featured an impressive selection and was really one of the best I've enjoyed.
service felt a bit rushed during peak times.

Staying in a castle was a genuinely enchanting experience filled with historical charm. Our Castle Classic Room had character, and the food in the restaurant was delicious, especially the breakfast offerings that provided a variety of choices. The staff were attentive and friendly, making us feel well looked after throughout our stay. the room could benefit from some modernization to enhance comfort.

I spent a night in a cozy Courtyard Classic Room and loved the nice long soak in the hot bath after a long day. The library bar is a fantastic spot to unwind, and the beautiful grounds are perfect for a leisurely stroll. The room could use a little updating, but I’d definitely recommend checking this place out for a unique experience! 😊

Had a blast with my friends at this unique castle! We spent our afternoon enjoying music at the UK's largest environmental festival and met my favorite rabbit in a blue jacket. The place is perfect for exploring local gems like Hadrian’s Wall and Alnwick Castle. The snacks in the room were a nice touch too!
Only downside was the low shower head, which was a bit awkward for taller folks. it took a while for the hot water to kick in.

lumley castle has a great vibe! our courtyard classic room was very comfortable, and the staff were incredibly welcoming. i loved how they quickly moved us to a quieter area when noisy guests arrived above us. the grounds are lovely, with beautiful gardens and friendly kitty named poppet. breakfast was fantastic too.
the restaurant could improve the service timing.

Cozy stay with charming vibes
The staff were super friendly and made us feel right at home. The castle itself has so much character, especially the Library Bar – perfect for winding down with a drink. The only hiccup was noise from a wedding that made it tough to sleep. a lovely experience!

Just a fine choice for a quick stopover in Chester-le-Street with good price-quality ratio. The bed was enormous and very comfortable, really helped us relax. Try to book a room with a separate living area for a bit more space.
