This is the third time we have stayed at Blackwell Grange in the last eight months, and each time we have thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We have booked all three trips through a special offer which appears in our local newspaper which offers excellent value for money. This time around the offer was £79 for two people, with afternoon tea... More

Bought a deal from "Living Social" for £149 which, for 2, included 2 nights in a cottage with free wi-fi at the Hotel with full English breakfast, 1 evening meal with a bottle of wine and access to the Spa. Alos advertised was a beauty pampering centre at the Spa with a full range of treatments which we intended to... More

We stayed at this hotel (only 20mins drive away) as I've been past it plenty of times and only ever been once many years ago. I also decided to treat my parents as they deserved it. I had my doubts upon reading recent reviews but wasn't disappointed and it was well worth the money. We arrived at 2pm for afternoon... More

Booked this trip for a weekend away and said that was part of spring sale, unfortunately hadn't read the small print and the free bottle of wine was for stays in May not when booked. Room was clean and comfortable but looks like it is still in progress of refurbishment. New furniture but some elements still needed painting. Staff were... More

Stayed at Blackwell Grange for 2 nights in April. Located just outside Darlington Town centre the hotel is close enough to town but still has countryside feel to it. The hotel is set back from the road up a longish path inbetween a golf course. The hotel reception was well looked after by excellent and very friendly staff. Check in... More

I stayed on business at the Blackwell Grange 20 and 21st May. Its obviously seen better days - I would describe it as 'shabby' with no 'chic'. Different carpet in different part of the hotel and some corridors with so much wear - the rucks could have been a trip hazard. Breakfast was supposed to start at 7am and I... More

Pleasant hotel, staff helpful and friendly. The property is a now a bit tired and in need of some investment. Room very cold, needed to put portable heater on.
