Harden's survey result
Summary
Half an hour’s drive from Newcastle, this super-swish country house hotel sits in 300 acres of magnificent grounds and comes complete with 63 rooms and a 27-hole championship golf course. As well as its more contemporary but less formal, glass-roofed ‘Cloisters’ eatery, there is the more formal ‘Emerald Room’ “located deep within the five star”. Feedback remains limited, but the room has a rare three rosettes from the AA, and such feedback as we have says that at £75 table d’hote menu offers exceptional value (and there’s also an eight-course extensive tasting menu for £125 per person).
For 34 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
