Lovely stay at Doxford Hall - grounds were looking beautiful with daffodils in bloom. Staff were friendly and welcoming Stayed in one of the rooms a short walk from the hotel. These were private with fantastic bathroom. Great choice for breakfast and spa facilities good. The beautiful Northumberland coastline right on the hotels doorstep.

We enjoyed two lovely nights at Doxford Hall along with our little dog. Lovely big room. Fantastic breakfasts. Very friendly staff. Great location to visit fantastic local beaches. Spa was a little tired but would have amazing potential. Sauna could have been a little cleaner. All in all a fantastic stay and would definitely recommend for a mini break.

An amazing 3nights of relaxed luxury. Restaurant food on particular was fab fine dining but there was also a market menu. Breakfast was excellent. Grounds were lovely even in the winter and plenty of places to sit inside including a library.

Nice area and town of Alnwick is fabulous. Room was okay but maybe a bit rundown and in noisy area of hotel maybe because we booked third party instead of through the hotel. Not as lovely as hoped and steam room was out of order for our stay. The jacuzzi was also broken and had a sharp edge which my partner cut himself on. The breakfast was nice but facilities such as coffee bar and massage treatment felt overpriced. I paid for 30 mins but probably only got about 20 mins massage.

Absolutely appalling stay here. The room was dated, the view from the bedroom windows were of broken sections of plastic covering roof tiles that need repaired. No money has been spent on the upkeep of this hotel. There was no telephone to call reception. Housekeeping chapped the door at 9:20am. The food in the restaurant was below standard. That much so I had an upset stomach. The lift shouldn’t be legal. That is a death trap. How this hotel has 4 starts it’s beyond me. I certainly will not be back. The receptionist was rude on arrival. Breakfast was an absolute joke. Asked to share a table with people that I didn’t know. It definitely was the worst stay I have ever had. Wasn’t t worth the money spent. I can’t recommend this hotel, it is a shambles. Refund should be given. Awful…

It was disappointing

We were “upgraded” to the hotel which felt more like a downgrade. We planned our honeymoon and did want some privacy. The room was ok but nothing special. It was spotless but the room felt bare. The food overall wasn’t good, overcooked meat, lukewarm breakfast and overpriced. We did attempt to have a nightcap at the bar but it was seriously lacking atmosphere and the cocktails were overpriced since they came out a premixed bag. Since you’d only need to spend a little extra at a cocktail bar and you’d get the whole show too. The pool and facilities were really good unfortunately they shut quite early. Overall the experience was disappointing and didn’t really meet a 4 star standard.

A nice stay overall

The only negatives were: 1. No member of staff in the cocktail bar for quite a while after I arrived to buy drinks 2. Dirty dishes and glasses were left on the tables in the lounge for a long time. 3. The changing rooms in the spa are inadequate - only two cubicles!
