Reviews
"we stayed here in June this year on our annual family holiday. Our ages ranged from 4 months to 86 years and the house was more than we anticipated. Whilst we were here it was my husbands 60th birthday and we engaged the services of the chef and butler to cook and serve our meal which was absolutely out of this world. The food was amazing and the service was second to none. We really felt like lords and ladies for the week and would not hesitate to recommend the place to anyone looking to book somewhere truly 5 star and away from it all."
"We have just returned from a week's stay in Burnhope Shooting Lodge, and cannot recommend it enough. Our party of 18 adults has been arranging walking holidays throughout the UK over the last 28 years, and we all agreed that this was the best property we had ever stayed in. All the rooms are ensuite, and also all are really big. Usually one person draws the short straw and ends up in the box room, but in this case, each room was large, and all the bathrooms really clean. The living space was equally well appointed, with an enormous lounge where we could all sit comfortably, and a huge formal dining room which, again, meant that we could all sit to eat together in the evenings. The kitchen/breakfast room was the best equipped we have ever experienced, and there is also a 'utility' room with two washing machines and dryers, as well as two dishwashers. The boot room was really useful for us to all keep our walking boots and coats. Externally there is a separate snooker room with a bar, which we did enjoy on several evenings, and there is a barbecue on the patio (it was too windy for us to use this). The house overlooks the reservoir, and is nice and isolated. It is possible to have shopping delivered by the usual supermarkets, which is probably a good idea, as the nearest supermarket is quite a way off (about 40 mins drive). As a group we had not visited Co Durham before, and would definitely love to return, as it is a really beautiful, and peaceful, area."
"Wonderful house, every amenity, our group of 13 thought it was better than many 4 star hotels they had stayed in around the world. Very comfortable bedrooms, all en-suite. Huge kitchen and utility room, and beautiful lounge with large wood burning fireplace. We loved the location, but it is a drive to the nearest supermarket for supplies. We will definitely be returning to Burnhope Lodge and have recommended it to everyone we know."
