My partner was running the Great North Run and obviously getting a hotel in Newcastle is not easy or cheap. So we ended up here and thank goodness we did. The villa is in a lovely area - a ten minute walk uphill to a great main street - and the venue itself is superb. Clean, cool an with a frendly welcome. My parents were down - they stayed elsewhere on the Saturday - and came over for dinner which was excellent. The menu was a bit different and delicous. Top marks. Breakfast on both mornings was superb. Lots of fruit, cereal, tea and coffee, plus perfect poached eggs. Now here is the important thing. My folk were due to drive up to Scotland on the Sunday after the race. But because of the heavy rain and a two hour wait on a bus, they decided staying put was fo the best. We phone the hotel and despite there having been a bit of a disaster in the kitchen that day, and the last thing they needed was more guests, they found them a bed. Really classy. Our stay cost a little over £100 a night including that superb breakfast. The bed was fantastic, room spotless and a great shower. I lived in Newcastle foe three years so know that fantastic city well. Sure, staying in the centre can be fun and easy, but I cannot recomment this place enough. There are enough buses going into town and Gateshead metro is a coupe of minutes drive or a short taxi ride. I cannot recommend Eslington Villa highly enough.
