What a lovely place to stay. The staff are amazing, friendly and helpful. Nothing is to much trouble for them.
The room  (room 5) was lovely and well appointed. There is no road noise despite being next door to the A1. which is amazing. 
The shower is fab , the bed very comfortable, and room very cozy
The food......................what can I say other than amazing. I had the burger of the week which was awesome, hubby had steak and kidney pudding, never have I ever seen so much filling. The prices are great to.
Then breakfast, jeezy peeps it was great, we could not do it justice as we were still digesting the evening meal.
Having family in the NE we have past this place many many times and boy are we pleased we chose to stay here. 
Do yourself a favour and pop in either for food, a stay or both, its lovely

Visited for lunch on a Saturday afternoon in March 2024.
Had scampi and chips and treacle sponge with cream and couldn't fault the service, the speed of delivery, or the quality of the food.
Really nice building, and a great experience all round.
I'll be back soon.

Great Lunch

Had the best steak and kidney pudding and homemade chips ever! Absolutely gorgeous stick toffee pudding! Great staff and great music! Definitely be going back soon to try more things off a great menu.

Bowes fantastic

Had a great stay here with room, facilities, food & staff all excellent.
A big thanks to the staff too for being really helpful after I left something behind which they returned to me without any qualms - thank you again.
Would recommend highly.

Great VFM & service

Great location close to Durham and Beamish museum. Room clean and good size. Ate in the restaurant both nights of stay. Portion size very generous, well cooked and tasty. Service also very good. Only downside was breakfast. Ordered in advance which is fine plus gave a time which should work. However both days had over 30 minute wait. Other tables who came in later than ourselves served first which was slightly frustrating. But for that would have given 5 stars as also great value for money.

Days away

Two night stay for two couples. First rate and great value. Good food and friendly efficient staff. We would most definitely stay at the Bowes Incline again if we ever visit the area at any time in the future.

Great Two Night Stay

We stayed here following a day out at rugby! Lovely hotel, friendly staff, room very clean and the breakfast was amazing! The only downside were the beds (which i think is the most important thing about a hotel) They were absolutely rock solid and everytime we turned over they creaked so loud it woke the other person up. Room 3 most certainly needs new beds and mattresses but other than this it was lovely. 

Fab staff and breakfast, upgraded beds needed.

Great place to break your journey when heading further north. Situated just off the A1 and providing very good value for money. Comfortable rooms and reasonable food.
We stayed on the way up to Scotland  and back.

good over night stop

Stayed here for one night, and we were really pleased with our stay. Our room was really modern and immaculate with a good-sized bathroom and shower and all rooms are on the ground floor. We ate here on the evening and the food was lovely. I recommend the sharing pot of mussels delicious and plenty. The staff were all really friendly and hardworking,we stayed on a Saturday evening and it was very busy the staff never stopped. The breakfast was also delicious ,you pre-order the day before, and there was plenty of choice, including eggs benedict, which were good. Would most definitely stay here again.

Lovely stay 

Glad to have booked this place to rest during a business trip; we were received by the staff with a lovely smile and friendly demeanour. The service was impecable in the restaurant as well - we had already had dinner before arriving, but we decided to have desserts and drinks. The desserts were fabulous, very tasty and flavourful. Looking around we noticed a lot of very nice looking dishes and people were definitely enjoying them; must be equally good, I guess.
The room was very nice; it was clean and comfortable, and to our delight, quiet.
Overall, a lovely stay and, should we travel in the same area again, we will certainly return.
