Lumley Castle Hotel

Medieval castle hotel with dog rooms, for castle nights not dining

This hotel is part of the Daisy Curated Collection. Its information has been researched and verified, but Daisy has not yet personally stayed here. When she does, this page will be upgraded to a full Daisy Verified inspection.

Daisy's Assessment
Researched and verified. Not yet personally stayed.
“A 14th-century castle hotel on a rise above the River Wear at Chester-le-Street, between Durham and Newcastle. A select number of bedrooms take dogs. Dogs are kept to their room, reception and the outer courtyard. It suits owners who want a castle night and plan to walk rather than linger in the lounges.
