kitchen

Staffield hall is set in beautiful surroundings. The group I was with took over the whole house. All rooms were well appointed and fitted out, although I couldn't open dishwasher, toilet leaked, shower very noisy and no information regarding water heater.  Dogs are allowed but watch out for hefty returnable surcharge. I recommend this for a family stay but be warned, despite the leaving time of 10am the cleaners started at 8am in apartments.

Birthdays takeover week

Stayed here 5th to 12th June. We were in the Lady Tower the views were great and the room and bed  very comfortable. Kitchen had everything you needed, although we ate out mostly. Location was really  good we visited Penrith, Carlisle, Pooley Bridge, Lowther Castle and  Windermere. The only complaint we had was that we ran out of loo paper on the Thursday, we did ask the housekeeper for more but we didn't get it. All in all we had a great stay and would definitely go back.

Great place to stay.

We stayed here in April 2021 and had a wonderful stay.

The hall and grounds were to a very high standard with many added extras. 

The hall is in a scenic, peaceful and tranquil setting surrounded by breathtaking countryside. The gardens were pristine and excellently maintained. The rooms were very spacious and clean. 

The owners Michael and Marie were very friendly and pleasant and always happy to help. If we had any questions or concerns these were answered promptly. 
The owners were always at hand to ensure our stay was trouble free and enjoyable. 

I personally cannot thank the owner enough in arranging and meeting our every need and I would highly recommended staying here - cannot be faulted in any way. 

We had high expectations from the pictures prior to arriving but these were exceeded. Such a beautiful place!

Amazing stay at Staffield Hall

Four of us spent a week at Staffield Hall, in the King Oswald apartment. Excellent accommodation, spotlessly clean, and very comfortable, with everything you need provided. The EXCELLENT accommodation made the current COVID virus a bit more bearable. Would love to come back one day, and would certainly recommend this delightful property for an enjoyable holiday in Cumbria. Vinny, Annette, Brian and Jane from Liverpool.

Staffield Hall ~ 27th Dec 2021 to 3rd Jan 2021.

Me and my partner stayed for 7 nights in the lady tower along with my overly spoilt bulldog for my birthday.
We had a lovely stay and we’re very comfortable in the apartment. The WiFi was temperamental but we were content to watch DVDs and do a jigsaw anyway, no WiFi was quite nice at some points. Other reviews have noted no phone signal which is the case but you’re at a country retreat so it’s to be expected, a phone is also provided in the room so we weren’t worried about emergencies.
we had a couple of minor issues with the spa bath letting out dirt when we used it and a broken light - the owners and the housekeeper got back to us very quickly and were apologetic. We weren’t overly bothered by a little bit of dirt from the pipes and I used the bath every day regardless! 
Lots of reviews mention cleaning at the end of the stay... I’m not sure why this would be an issue, we had no problem having a quick tidy! Having a dog in the property required us to clean up anyway and we were thrilled we were able to bring her. I saw a review about dirty washing being left outside rooms in bags.. this is the case but due to having common sense we didn’t root through other peoples dirty washing and get covid. 

We all loved the gardens (we seemed to be better at picking up dog poo than other people) - we all enjoyed pottering around looking at the different mushrooms. 
We visited the crown inn in the village twice, amazing food! 
Overall we loved the hall and we loved our stay. 

Lovely stay 

The house is extremely grand externally and the grounds are simply stunning. The hot tub was cleaned whilst there and the little changing shed a lovely touch. The layout of the house is good (although we asked for a floor plan to prepare for our arrival but didn't get one, which led to a bit of confusion when we arrived) and its is tastefully decorated. Everything was clean and well appointed when we arrived. However, the beds were not comfortable at all, with a number of our party complaining about this: in our double bed we could feel the springs through the mattress. We did have a couple of issues when we were there and when we rang to get them rectified, some were (wifi issue sorted) and others weren't (we needed a bed converting back to a king from twin which wasn't facilitated). We had a maintenance man in to investigate a cupboard in one of the rooms, King Oswald, that actually smelt like something had died in there! The investigations concluded that some thing likely had(!) and there wasn't much they could do. The major negative incident occurred when delivery men were given the code for the door and opened it without any of our party being informed that this had happened. We had 6 children in the house, as well as all our possessions,  and were pretty concerned from a safeguarding and security view,  that strangers had access without our knowledge. They also left the delivery of 8 dining chairs in the entrance hall blocking access and creating a clear fire hazard. We did speak to a lovely man who does maintenance around the property who did come and moved the chairs, but the other staff we spoke to were quite abrupt on more than one occasion. One of these staff, a female cleaner (who we were aware was coming and going throughout our stay) left dirty laundry from another property in the same entrance hall which was a massive COVID risk from our standpoint and when questioned about it was quite rude to one of us stating the laundry company they normally used wasn't operating so she had to do washes in our machines.  Overall, the house was lovely and we had a really nice time but for the price (over £6000 for 6 nights!) it wasn't very good value for money given the issues we had.

Lovely week away with family

First of all the wifi doesnt work so is not 'high speed' at all. Nor was it luxury in any way shape or form, there was damp everywhere, the paint was pealing. The kitchen is barley usable due to it being minute. I would not recomend staying.

Not as advertised

We came to Staffield hall for 4 nights to get away from it all and it didn’t disappoint!  We stopped in Dove Cote (right in the roof) and it was lovely.  Very clean and tastefully decorated.  It had everything we needed and was very homely.  We loved waking up each day to the sounds of The birds singing, the sheep bleating and the pheasants calling without any traffic noise.  So peaceful.  The grounds are lovely - just perfect for an hour in the autumn sunshine with your book! It’s in the middle of nowhere but close enough to local towns and amenities to not feel too remote.  There are a couple of excellent pubs nearby too for a spot if dinner. The communication from the owner was friendly and timely too, would certainly recommend.

Just what the doctor ordered!

Stayed here a few weeks ago and have held off doing a review because once more people know about this, it will be impossible to get booked. 

Gorgeous place a mile or two from Kirkoswald.  Surrounded by peace, quiet and fields.  Apartment was perfect, large bathroom with jacuzzi bath and shower, fully equipped kitchen, comfortable bed and a lovely living room.  Could have stayed for weeks rather than just the three nights we had booked for.  

Only downside was getting our luggage from the car to the Peel Tower room which was at the top of the building.  We chose to eat in on two of our nights and had taken provisions with us.  The other night we ate at a local pub.

The most relaxing break we have had in a while, can’t wait to book again.

A hidden gem

We stayed for a few nights at the end of April and we loved it from start to finish. Staffield Hall is a lovely old country house with many of the original features retained, in a beautiful country setting. It's location is great for both the North Pennines and the Lake District but you'll need a car. We had our dog with us, sometimes she can be a little unsettled on the first night in a new place but that was absolutely not the case here. We went to Coombs wood, a couple of miles north of Staffield, to take her for walks most days. It's a lovely wood with lots of paths and no sheep!! (there are lots of sheep around the area!)

The accommodation itself was first class. The kitchen had everything we needed but I did think it would have been a nice touch to provide fresh coffee for the cafetiere. The only other thing I would say is the pillows were very hard, they seemed quite old and could do with being replaced. Very minor points that would not stop us from returning. There was no disturbance from other guests and there was ample opportunity to use the shared hot tub. 

All in all, we loved it!
