They hosted a group dinner for approximately 40 people that they couldn't manage at all. The pizza was older than Lord Armstrong himself. I don't think the 'stew' can actually be defined as stew, just beef and mushrooms with gravy. Half of us finished our mains before the other half were served, and the restaurant obviously tried to serve us all at once. The service was just extremely slow. They also lost the main one of our group had ordered. One person ordered a gluten free cheesecake and the restaurant didn't actually have it. Half the times we went to the bar for drinks it was unattended.

Not recommended if you actually want somewhere to stay. Arrived at the hotel which we had pre-booked and paid for after a full day of travel only to be met with a sign ‘Closed for renovations’. We were given no notification or communication. So I wouldn’t recommend staying here. We were told it recently changed hands so assuming positive reviews were for the previous owner.

After being let down by another hotel in the area we booked at short notice and were lucky to find this gem. From the warm welcome to the outstanding accommodation, we could not find anything to fault during our stay and we will be back next time we visit Northumberland.

We visited Rothbury for a couple of nights stay and decided on Armstrong Manor. Note that at present it is not open until 4p.m. due to staff shortages. However, we received a very warm welcome from Andy and Ashley. Room was nice and clean, all ready for use. Lovely large bedroom with bath and a walk in shower. Food was excellent, they have found a great chef. Good range of beers etc. Although it is still a "work in progress", there is quite a bit of work to be done behind the scenes, it was a great stay and we will be returning later in the year. I wish then every success in turning this hotel into the hotel of their dreams.
