We stopped overnight at the Fleece returning home to London from Scotland. It was delightful stay. A very comfortable room and great bathroom. Attentive service and a good dinner. Breakfast was not quite so good, but adequate for what we wanted before we got back on the road.

Excellent Stay
Lovely hotel, clean and well maintained. Comfortable beds, nice deep bath and separate shower in the bathroom with posh Rituals shower gel, shampoo etc. Friendly staff, nice seating area on a mezanine library and in the bar. Breakfast good choice. Had Sunday roast when we got there, only issue was the beef was too rare for me, they should have said on the menu cooked rare and I would have chosen something else. Everything else amazing, would go back, felt very relaxed and pampered.

First class as always
4th time we have stayed here and it never disappoints. The service is excellent, food excellent and the rooms and facilities are always to a very high standard. We like the touch of a complimentary beer and GnT in the fridge as well as water - ideal after a long drive!

My partner and I stayed in room 15 from 19th till 21st September, bed was the most comfortable I have ever slept in. Huge bathroom with multiple jet shower and deep bathtub, fluffy white towels, bathrobe and slippers provided. Lovely touch to see complimentary beer and gin in the room. The hotel decor is stunning and very tastefully done. Had breakfast both days,great choice and quality ingredients. Lunch and dinner on Friday was also superb. Staff are so friendly and can't do enough to make your stay special. The hotel, room and exterior are spotlessly clean. Can't think of any negatives, truly a wonderful stay and will definitely return

The hotel has recently been refurbished and it is to a wonderfully high standard with lovely decor in keeping with the surrounding area. It's a great location if you are wanting to visit Hadrian's wall with a couple of English Heritage visitors centres within a short drive. The staff were all super friendly and helpful, especially with one of us walking with a stick. The rooms were spacious and comfortable and the bed very comfortable. We loved the library areas with the couches and lots of books to look through. Dinner was delicious. We were only staying one night while on our way up to Scotland but it was a fabulous start to our holiday and we would love to go back!
