多弗德霍爾水療酒店(Doxford Hall Hotel and Spa)

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.

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!

Our room - one of the coach houses set in the grounds was pleasant after sorting the musty smell - the room felt damp and cold. After some airing and heating it seemed ok. The furniture was all stained marked as was the carpet and the furniture needs some TLC. There is no private parking - you need to park round the back of the coach houses. The swimming pool was pleasant. Breakfast and food was lovely. Staff ( when you could find them) were nice.

Doxford Hall Hotel and Spa is in a quiet location with the potential to be a great place to stay. However, I would not recommend it due to lack of cleanliness, expensive restaurant and accommodation which was at a standard below that expected for the price. I stayed in a Superior Double Room in June and it was too warm because the window would not open as it was sealed by paint. The bathroom was spacious with luxury fixtures but it was not clean; there was a musty smell due to black mould underneath the toilet rim, this had not been cleaned for ages but was cleaned after complaint. The sink overflow and shower hose were also mouldy. The bathroom fan did not work and was filthy. The restaurant did not have enough capacity for all residents causing overflow into the Cocktail Bar which was hectic and not very comfortable. Whilst there was a good choice of food it was over-priced and subject to a discretionary 12.5% gratuity charge. This was excessive as the service did not even offer free tap water.

Hotel is in beautiful grounds ,the hotel itself is lovely rooms very clean spacious beautiful coving and chandelier's ,spa was lovely with jacuzzi very clean

The food was excellent but there was a very limited choice and if staying for more than a couple of nights it got very limited. There was very little for vegetarians or vegans, although the chief would prepare requested meals within readon and with notice.

one we finally arrived at the Hotel, following a breakdown on the way, we had a great stay. staff very pleasant and helpful, hotel clean and well maintained.

The staff was amazing!! We had problems with our rental car and they went way beyond the call of duty to help us. Some of the best service we have had in any public venue.

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.
