“Stanhope is such a great base for exploring this beautiful area the accommodation was the icing on the cake!”

- Mrs Mchugh, September 2021
Miss Derwas July 2021

“This was a return visit to the Queen's Apartments for us, having stayed in Queen Victoria last year.”

We returned as we had been so impressed with the cleanliness and comfort of the apartment and we were not disappointed. This year we stayed in Queen Anne and were equally impressed. Thank you to all concerned.

Mr Tinegate June 2021

- Mr Tinegate, June 2021
Mrs Thomas June 2021

“The apartment was lovely and had plenty of room for 6 adults.”

Stanhope is a nice village with plenty of amenities including good pubs, shops and a fish and chip shop.

- Mrs Thomas, June 2021
Ms Parkinson-fairfax October 2020

“The property was larger than expected and had high quality, comfortable furnishings and equipment.”

The photos on the website did not do it justice. We had chosn this particular apartment as one of our party is a wheelchair user and both bathrooms were on the ground floor, sadly she was unable to access either shower as there were no safety handles. Adding safety handles would make this apartment would make the shower accessible to those with mobility problems. There was plenty of space in the apartment for both the wheelchair and her walker. The bed linen and towels were of lovely quality and the upper bedrooms spacious with plent of storage, all three beds were extremely comfortable. The only downside was we had some very heavy footed guests in the apartment above us for the last few days of our stay - their thudding footsteps could be heard even by the partially deaf member of our group.

Mr Hewitson September 2020

“Have booked another apartment in this building.”

Beautifully finished spotlessly clean and comfortable. Fairly quiet location. central for all local amenities. Parking can be limited but always somewhere close by. Could not fault anything whilst staying there. Thank you for such enjoyable and comfortable accommodation.

- Mr Hewitson, September 2020
Mrs Gregersen September 2020

“The Queen Anne suite exceeded our expectations beautifully furnished and equipped.”

Weather was mixed but had several walks, both short and long along the river from Stanhope. Derwent Reservoir and the picturesque village of Blanchland, about 20 minutes drive away, were well worth the visit. When the weather got the better of us we were happy to relax with a book or watch Netflix in our comfortable apartment.

- Mrs Gregersen, September 2020
Mrs Brennan September 2020

“So much thought has gone into this apartment that you have absolutely everything you could possibly need to hand.”

The standard of both the apartment and the cleanliness were fantastic making us feel safe to use in the current climate. Loved it!

- Mrs Brennan, September 2020

- Mr Knapton, September 2020
Mr Windibank September 2020

The apartment is fantastic. Beautifully decorated, furnished and all the facilities we required. It was spotless clean.
