The Collingwood Arms Hotel in Northumberland - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Had an excellent Sunday lunch here yesterday. The choice was excellent, beautifully cooked beef and accompaniments. My son had fish which he also said was very tasty. Lovely staff, nothing too much trouble, even had a treat for the dog. Will definitely go back.

Fantastic value Lunch midweek served by extremely smart waiter and as Pub side was busy had a treat ate in Dining room. I am local will be back all in all an excellent experience.

We called in at this hotel yesterday evening. With temperatures of -5 we thought we might be the only customers but the bar and restaurant were reasonably busy, particularly for a Monday night. We had an excellent meal, looked after by Steve, who was first class. We will definitely return.

Fabulous food, especially the cured salmon and the steak, will definitely come back again, absolutely loved it!

Outdated restaurant with a poor menu. They have a menu in their web site but they offer you a different one in the restaurant. It used to be quite good 20 years ago but not any more. Spider webs, broken lamps on the walls and the tables are not clean. Special mention: the wine glasses! They look like plastic! They need to buy a decent gassware. It is a pity, the place is very nice but it needs a make over urgently. The man who served us seemed to be on a hurry and he was very grumpy. Not a nice experience, i would not recommend this restaurant…

don't just drive past on a Sunday the lunch is superb as per the last time and is verry good value for money

Visited tonight with my wife . One of the best in the local area and we live here! The scallops and trout starter both perfect . The home made bread and beetroot butter and unexpected treat . The mains of lamb and pheasant all cooked and tasted lovely . Disappointed we have not tried before so close to home . Very very impressed . Compared to some of the high end places I’ve visited (in my reviews) this is as good as now closed Mizen head in Bamburgh . Please give it a try . Wasn’t busy but I would book at a weekend . If you like boring food maybe not for you !

called in ,not booked ,any chance of a sunday lunch for2?. no problem. absolutely superb grub beef perfect,lamb excellent puds to die for.we will be back soon

Extremely disappointing roast beef dinner, undercooked beef fatty , undercooked roast potatoes, not good value for money

We were so disappointed. Although being warned that the beef would take 45 minutes, we waited an hour and a half for our food (we did not order starters) and when it arrived it was over cooked and chewy. We requested rare and both came beyond well done. We were offered a round of drinks on the house but the most disappointing part of the evening was the attitude of the manageress - yes we were offered a discount but she made a bad meal unsalvageable. Sorry but definitely would not recommend.

Imaginative and creative menu, beautifully cooked using locally sourced ingredients and produce; well worth visiting!

We ate here whilst staying at the hotel. The menu was very good with a number of choices I was happy to try over the days we stayed. I had a pea and broad bean soup, scallops, fish cake, trout fillet, cheeses. All were very good and tasty. Service was good.

Went for lunch - hadn't booked but got table in the bar. Looked after in an exemplary manner by Angela (only member of staff in bistro/bar area). Something on the menu to suit all tastes/appetites/budgets. We had prawn cocktail x 2 and Steak ciabatta and mushroom omelette plus a bottle of excellent Pinot Grigio. All Covid-19 rules in force but felt safe and relaxed. After we left we popped into Cornhill Village Store (terrific little shop/cafe).

Stopped for lunch on way home. Great food well presented and served by friendly and helpful staff. We both had haggis bon bons as a starter and they were delicious as was the rest of the meal. We will be back

We only visited for drinks as it was such a lovely day but how glad we were that we did. The outside gardens where we sat are really lovely and very relaxing. The staff were very friendly and the beer was pretty good too. Next time we'll stop for a bite to eat!

Having eaten here a couple of years ago and being impressed, I convinced my friends that we should stop off here for a light lunch after having a walk. I phoned a few days earlier to check if they did lunches/soups etc on a Sunday. They confirmed that they start serving this at 2:30pm after the Sunday lunches. We arrived at 2:15 and were told that they only served a fixed Sunday menu on a Sunday. When I explained that I had rang previous to check, the staff member said "Oh yes, but we don't start serving until 2:30 " as it was now 2:20pm we said we would wait . She showed us to a table in the restaurant where the were only 2 customers, hardly rushed off there feet. She said she would check if we could be served early. We each ordered soup and sandwich from the menu the sandwiches were priced at £7 - £7.50 but there was no price against the soup and sandwich separate deal. It took ages for the food to come. Soup was delicious but my Ham sandwich left a lot to be desired. For the price I expected to have nice baked Ham but I got the thin/sllmey cheap stuff you get from Supermarkets. The shocker came when the bill arrived 3 x Soup and sandwiches and 1 small bottle larger. £43. When we checked we had been charged £7 - £7.50 for the sandwiches+ £6 for the soup. I went to the bar to query the bill . arguing that if we ordered soup separately it would have come with a roll and the sandwiches would have come with crisps and coldslaw garnish. The lady behind the bar did look up a few things before she reluctantly gave us a revised bill of £28. £15 difference. We paid and left there wasn't any apology I think they felt like we were trying to rip them off. I think it was the other way on. I heard since that the Collingwood has recently changed hands, I won't be returning again.

Booked at short notice for a lunch gathering. First visit this is a lovely place with excellent food and service. Would definitely return again and recommend. Thank you.

We called in on the way home from Scotland having heard good things from friends about the food here, the service was quick and friendly and the food was ok, I was totally undecided about what to have and in my panic chose the pan fried cod, which was ok but lacked flavour - should have just stuck with the fish and chips! My mistake!! We sat in the bar area, there is a restaurant for more special dining too! We probably would return if passing but maybe not make a special trip out.

The staff were friendly and helpful. Menu good, not huge choice, but variety. Food was really tasty and well presented. Prices were reasonable. Did get rather noisy in restaurant, but maybe we were just unlucky as a rather loud group arrived. Would definitely go back.

Chers auditeurs et auditricesPour ceux qui aime la pense de brebis farcie, vous êtes au bon endroit.Tout était parfait , les assiettes s’en souviennent.Bien à vous L’épicurien du 78

Good locally sourced food served by pleasant and welcoming staff. Typical Sunday lunch offering 2 roasts and served, not a carvery

Went for dinner with the family... not overly impressed.The staff are friendly and helpful, however the speed of service wasn't so good, not the restuarant staff fault. Thought maybe they had to chase and catch the cow, as dinner took so long to arrive.When it did, although the food tasted nice, had we recieved it when it was cooked, it would have been hot, instead of warm.The chips, what there was (all 7 of them), were sprinkled with some sort of spice. What happened to good old fashioned plain chips. Most places I've been to include onion rings with the steak dinner, not as added extra... On a plus side... the pint of real ale was good.Last time we attended this pub, was for a quiet drink one evening.Having waited at the bar for 15 minutes for a member of staff to show up... we decided not to wait any longer and left...Probably won't be returning here again.

Recommended by our b&b. A little disappointed that we were told initially they could not fit us in (after bar staff spoke to chef!) Then told by another member of staff that we could in fact be catered for. It didn't look too busy. Only 2 staff on duty, serving food and looking after bar so they were rushed. My steak pie came with just a crust and no meat!! Made everyone laugh but actually not that funny. Veg bit dry and overcooked.Can't comment on starters or desets as didn't order. My husbands fish and chips was ok.2 members of staff very friendly and helpful. Pleasant surroundings but disappointing food.

Excellent service and good quality food together with a warm welcome , we were a walk in but they were very willing to find us a table despite it being a busy weekend

We had previously had an enjoyable lunch here in the main bar area and liked the look of the restaurant so booked or a mid week evening. It was one of the most enjoyable evenings in lovely surroundings. It’s so nice to have supper at a place where people dress nicely, no jeans and t.shirts. We all had a main course and a dessert, followed by coffees. With a ore paid round and one with our meal for the 3 of us we spent just shy of £100 but felt it was a very good deal. At no time were we rushed and although they apologised at our wait we were quite happy having pre dinner drinks in the lovely reception area and having a good chat. Not long after we were called in we were served with piping hot food of a very good quality. My husband had the venison and said it was outstanding. Highly recommend.

the rooms were very comfortable, light and airy. the breakfast and evening meals were exceptional especially the tempora prawns withe lime and chilli

Absolutely fantastic place to stay or visit. ALL the staff were hugely fun, friendly and helpful; from booking to checkout.

Great atmosphere and lovely food. We are in the restaurant but there was another eating area available. Lovely staff.

We visited the Collingwood Arms for a special Mother’s Day lunch. We booked well advance for a table for six of us including two children. The Collingwood Arms Facebook page said there would be two menus available, a special Mother’s Day menu and their normal Sunday lunch menu, however this was not the case.

We always enjoy our Sunday lunches here. Great location, friendly helpful staff and really good food (good value). It's a lovely hotel with a good local base and great for visitors. Highly recommend a stop off here.

Lovely menu with a variety of things to suit most tastes and prices to suit everyone. Ate here twice and excellent standard both nights. Clean plates all round! Will be back.

We’d happily eaten here in the past and called in midweek for lunch on our way for an appointment later that afternoon at 2.00pn. We arrived at the main entrance to find a sign saying “please ring the bell as the door is closed due to the wind”. We duly rang the bell and after a little while a member of staff opened up he door. She turned and headed back to the bar/restaurant without a word to us, no greeting or welcome, no come in from the cold and wind. We followed her to the bar and waited our turn whilst another couple were served their drinks. It was 12.40 and we then asked the same member of staff who had opened the door for us if we could have a table for two in the restaurant. Without any softening words said we would not be able order any food until 1.00pm as they had a table of eight arriving who had preordered their food. I asked her how long it would take to receive our food if we ordered it at 1.00pm and was told that she couldn’t say, again no hint of any warm/customer friendly words. I prefer to spend our money where customers are welcomed and valued. The service here was colder than chilly wind outside. Unfortunately, we certainly won’t be trying this place again,

I was taken here on 17th December for my birthday lunch ... delicious food, huge portions, lovely surroundings, service friendly and efficient. Good buzz to the place. Shame the fire wasn't on in the entrance hall. It was a cold day and this would have been grand . Other than this, no complaints.

We had a two course meal with two glasses of wine. The food was good except the veal broth which consisted of a small jug of consommé and a meagre spoonful of pulses. It would be improved by a 100% increase in size and a 50% reduction in price, At just under £60 we feel the meal was overpriced . The service was

Go for the bistro rather than the restaurant, and you can have the same dishes in a very relaxed, casual environment. We've been a number of times for birthdays and anniversaries, and it never disappoints. Consistently good food, beautifully prepared, local ingredients, an excellent chef, and extremely nice staff. What's not to like?

It was 13,58 and we were feeling peckish on our way South then we came across this oasis.

We stayed in a suite as we were attending a wedding nearby. The room was lovely and big, really great bathroom. Staff were excellent very welcoming and the bar was great. Great place to stay

Great food and Doggy Friendly however you must book as there is limited space for dog owners to sit. Would definitely recommend.

As a family we return to the Collingwood frequently as it predictively serves excellent food in nice surroundings! The decor in the restaurant is particularly comfortable and atmospheric. Highlights of our meal last night were the celeriac and apple soup and the lamb! We were served promptly and efficiently. We will be back and look forward to any changes to the menu the chef may consider in the future as we are enjoying working our way through the current one!

We booked a table here and despite the fact we were late because of traffic issues, they handled it with professionalism and grace.

The owner of our B&B; was able to secure a table for us pretty much at the last minute. I'm so glad she did as we had a fabulous meal. Slightly more expensive than other places we ate whilst on holiday, but it was worth it. A lovely menu, plenty of choice and a great atmosphere.

Have visited several times now and never been disappointed. The bar and dining room are lovely, the staff very professional but friendly and the food is always good and beautifully served. The lunch menu is very reasonably priced.

I would never have thought to stop here if one of our party had not been before and recommended it. Roast beef with usual trimmings, Roast pork with same, roast cod all excellent. Well presented, very good service. Panacotta dessert was very tasty, very white-chocolatey. Coffee came with home-made biscuits. Will definitely stop here again if I'm ever in Cornhill.

Most of the meal would deserve 4 to 5 stars and have never been disappointed before but why a decent restaurant think it is okay to dish up frozen chips and mass produced meringues. If I wanted my food from Tesco I would not choose to go to a restaurant to have it heated up / plated up. This has spoiled what else would have been an excellent meal. It should be noted that they did change chips for potatoes when I asked - hence higher than 1 star.

Family of 8 attended for meal on 14th July 18.

We would like to say Thank you to all the staff

Beautiful old building and gorgeous rooms. The food was good and the reception excellent. Very friendly staff. A suggestion would be to have music playing in the dining room. It was very quiet and the kitchen banter could be clearly heard. It would add some much needed atmosphere

Visited for lunch midweek and was pleasantly surprised by the quality of food. Went for the pork pie which was cooked very well and had a lovely taste. The service was excellent too and the building and grounds are well maintained. Would happily visit again the next time I'm in the area.

My wife and I visited the Collingwood Arms restaurant for Lunch, the food was excellent, the service was great the waitresses were very friendly and cheerful. Its a lovely restaurant in a lovely location.

We met family at this Hotel for Sunday Lunch. This is a beautiful Hotel on the Scottish Border set in lovely grounds.

Had a lovely meal. Recommend it. Service was excellent, food super . Has improved since last time we were there.

Stayed at the Collingwood Arms for one night,from entering the hotel the staff were so nice and welcoming.The room was very clean and comfortable and had all the facilities you needed it was also lovely and warm.we had lunch evening meal and breakfast all the food was fantastic.weve stayed in some really nice hotels but none with the hospitality we received at the Collingwood Arms .we will definetly be back.well done the team at the Collingwood house from the front of house,chefs and cleaners.you all are doing an amazing job

Called in here inpromptu with my partner when heading back from Edinburgh.

I had scallops (large with black pudding bacon and a very nice sauce). My wife had prawns and crayfish stack. Both very nice. Then she had the gammon pie, delicious. I had a fillet of salmon (more like half a fillet) skin side slightly black and other side slightly undercooked not quite enough to complain about. However it was well presented with very nice veg.

We could not have been made to feel more welcome, once someone answers the bell inside the front door!

Travelling back from Stirling to Tyneside we decided to stop for lunch at the Collingwood Arms. We chose this because, on our journey earlier in the week we had stopped for morning coffee and found the service and atmosphere excellent.

We went for lunch and the quality of the food and service was excellent. The hotel/ restaurant is in a nice location and the staff were very pleasant.

We had a lovely meal and the service was excellent. Reasonably priced food and a good menu to choose from.

Amazing restaurant, 2nd visit in as many months and not disappointed. Lovely staff and atmosphere but I recommend you book as very popular. Really need to stay here as the rooms look lively too

Working in Coldstream for a few days, enjoyed very good Indian food at very fair prices at Rajdhani for previous two evenings but decided to pop over the border for last night and very glad we did. Excellent food, great wine list, very good service and beautiful building inside and out. A good enough reason to visit Cornhill (as if the setting weren't a good enough reason anyway!)

This was recommened to us by our bed and breakfast close by. It proved to be excellent, very good service, lovely food and good value considering the standard.

Had a wonderful meal and experienced great service at our first visit to The Collingwood not too many months ago so re-booked for my birthday for a Friday evening. Restaurant quiet but we quite like that you don't have to shout to be heard. Service not the best - food not the best. Suffice to say we will not be returning. Sorry guys but you need to up the ante at the prices you are charging.

Travelling North to Edinburgh, this was third time lucky in a quest to find somewhere for lunch. We expected it to be very pricey, but were pleasantly surprised to find it very reasonable. We were given a choice of tables in the restaurant, and were very well looked after by the waiter. The food arrived promptly, and was extremely good.

Es ist sehr angenehm, wenn man am Abend müde vom Tag zurückkommt ins Hotel und gleich an Ort und Stelle ein sehr gutes Nachtessen geniessen kann. Die gute Weinkarte gilt es auch zu beachten!

Waited almost an hour for a couple of main courses. Only one other table of two people in the restaurant. Not really dog friendly. They put people with dogs on tables directly opposite the bar, so not only uncomfortable to have people standing just above you at the table whilst they prop up the bar, dog close to getting stood upon.Waitress did not know what dishes were gluten free and had to consult the kitchen a couple of times. Even when ordered a 'gluten free' dish, it came with a side portion of toasted bread, that I was told would be gluten free, but after eating a little piece I knew it wasn't. I was ill all week. Apart from that the food was just ok. Certainly not close to being the best in the area as they claim! Could be more friendly in their approach too, but that's probably down to in experienced and young staff who don't really want to be there.

We booked an early table in the main dining room. Only one other table occupied on our arrival. The crab starter and turbot main were delicious with top quality ingredients. The staff were pleasant but there was something very wrong with the organisation of the service. No staff about much in the dining room and the brasserie was hectic. We had a long wait for the starter and then over 45 minutes wait for the main. Other guests were in a similar situation. Sort this out and it would be 4/5 stars.

Very welcoming restaurant, warm helpful staff, food is of excellent quality and very reasonably priced, well worth a visit, then another, then another................

We hadn't booked but had read great reviews. Even though they were busy they managed to give us a table in the bar. What a wonderful lay out. The tables are big and nicely spaced out so you don't feel on top of other diners. The food was absolutely delicious, my husband had the burger which was a very posh and tasty burger and I had the ham hock and apricot terrine to start followed by the linguine. We would definitely return if we are in the area and would recommend to all.

Currently best Sunday Lunch in North East,Roast Beef was absolutely delicious and all vegetables were cooked perfectly.Bread pudding was fantastic.Service was first class.If you are in area I would recommend a visit.

Thank you to all at the Collingwood hotel, the minute we walked through door we were met by a lovely young man who guided us to the bar showed us a table, brought us menus and explained dish of day/specials to us. 10 minutes later young friendly waitress took our order. After little while same waitress came and guided us through to restaurant. Delicious starters of ham hock terrine, and duck and orange pate served on Melba toast and oatcakes with the terrine. We looked forward eagerly to the mains of salmon with sweet chilli sauce and fillet steak requested rare, steak was cooked to perfection £28.00 for the fillet but worth every penny. Staff were efficient, attentive though unobtrusive. Thoroughly enjoyed the mains, no room for dessert so I had coffee while partner enjoyed blueberry bread and butter pudding with pistaccio ice cream., I tried a little bit of the pudd and wow, it was heaven £64.00 for meal for two and worth every penny. Have just found a new favourite restaurant. Thank you the Collingwood.

There were 10 of us eating at the Collingwood Arms last Saturday. We go every year, often more than once, as a group renting a local cottage (Tillmouth Cottages - I can thoroughly recommend them! They are just a mile or so up the road). Last year was disappointing as another member of the group posted here, but now - to set the record straight - I can say that the food, atmosphere and service was wonderful for our most recent visit. One of the highspot choices on the menu is the Catch of the Day - fresh fish from Eyemouth - either in batter or grilled. It did not disappoint. Between us, the 10 of us tested quite a lot of what was on offer, and it all lived up to the Collingwood Arms's excellent reputation. Including a modest amount of wine, and taking into account that most people had 2 courses, I think an average of £24 per person is excellent value for a lovely meal in a fine building, with service to match.

We called in for an evening meal whilst visiting the area last year and were pleasantly surprised. The food was great along with the service but I would recommend booking first as we were lucky I think. The atmosphere was that of a country pub restaurant very pleasant and welcoming.

Stopped for lunch, we had our spaniel with us which would usually get a "No Dogs" in most places north of the Border, but were welcomed to eat in the bar.We were served quickly even though the place was busy, price reasonable. Bar sandwich-on-a-plate-with-salad was plentiful, tasty and reasonably priced for the area.

Called in here today as we were in the area. Got a very warm welcome and excellent service.The menu is varied and quite extensive. Our meals were superb (we both had fish dishes). The puddings were delicious. My husband would recommend the rhubarb strudel. Lovely place.Go if you are nearby.

Lovely atmosphere, friendly staff, excellent food. We were made to feel very welcome (especially the dogs) when we called in on the off chance for dinner on Easter Monday. The hot cross bun bread and butter pudding was wonderful!

We had a very good Sunday lunch here and thought it good value for the quality and quantity. With plenty of choice for all courses reflecting the seasonal availability and the local produce, we will undoubtedly return. The dining room and bar are very well appointed without feeling too stuffy. A lovely residents lounge with a log fire was an ideal place to take coffee and read a selection of the Sunday papers afterwards. Good attentive service, slightly slow but definitely relaxed and welcoming.

We stayed at the Collingwood as part of an on-line offer, the hotel is far superior to many hotels we have stayed at in the UK. The setting and grounds are lovely, the rooms, restaurant and bar area are all a pleasant and comfortable place to be.Staff very helpfull and friendly. Top drawer, and thank you making our stay so pleasant.

My wife and I visited the restaurant for dinner. The staff were really warm and welcoming when we arrived.The reviews on this site don't do the food the justice it really deserves.I started with the Haggis and Black pudding stack and I was not disappointed. It was to die for.My wife had the scollops and they too, were delicious.The main course arrived and my wife had the Belly Pork and I had the Venison...heaven!Dessert followed, Elton Mess and Cheese Board. Both very yummy indeed.We will be back!

Only stayed one night on an Itison deal. Very friendly , efficient staff. Extremely nice room. Food very good although I felt that the main course menu was a little limited in choice. Would most certainly return. A great stay.

I took a party of 8 couples to the Collingwood Arms last Saturday and I can only say that the whole experience from beginning to end was fantastic. The staff were polite and attentive throughout and nothing was too much bother for them. They even arranged for the Six Nations rugby to be shown in the lounge for those who were interested. The meals were the highlight of the evening and as our party was so large I think everything on the menu was seen and sampled. It was all first class both in presentation and quality. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves and the only slight 'complaint' was that the evening passed far too quickly. We will most definitely revisit the Collingwood whenever we are back in the area. A huge thank you to everyone who made this such a special night !

Wow! Loved it. The food really was delicious - went for battered fish & chips. Chips definitely hand cut. Delicious ice cream with a chocolate spoon! Excellent.

This is primarily has a strong focus on fish and game – with venison, duck or salmon – served without fussy presentation. Puddings are rich and spoiling. The bar menu is more crowd-pleasing with homemade pies, burgers and fish and chips. Some fruit and vegetables are home-grown. Eat in either the cheery brasserie or the restaurant. The latter, with views over the attractive garden, is okayBreakfast is a short but thoughtful menu, including local kippers, with decent-sized pots of coffeeThis Inn is based on a main road: the A697, one of the principle routes into Scotland and which crosses the River Tweed border at nearby Coldstream. Other than the river, Cornhill-on-Tweed has little to offer (village shop, church, agricultural suppliers). The Borders – Berwick-upon-Tweed, Kelso, Melrose – and north Northumberland attractions of Holy Island, Ford & Etal Estate villages and Cheviot Hills, are within a 30 to 40-minute drive.There are dedicated rooms for fishing gear and guns, plus free kennels for dogs. Any fish caught can be cooked for your supper, frozen, or smoked, for you to take home. Fishing and horse-riding can be arranged; there are maps of local walks; plus drying facilities and cycle storage. Dogs are allowed in the public areas, but not where food is served. I noted that Staff love chatting with guests.

This is a must if it's on I had it 3 night's in a row and could not fault it cooked to perfection as we're all the meals, two different currys and my wife had different meals each night not one complaint well done

Called in here the other evening for supper, the staff were excellent, the Food was superb, also had a good choice of wine.It is a must stop if you are in the area!!You can stay here also, the interior furnishings are delightful.

This is a nice building, the grey green walls inside a little more forgiving with people in the room, as opposed to my last visit when the empty restaurant felt a little dull.The menu is okay if not overly exciting and has a feel of not really changing, a number of "fancy pub classics" appearing. This includes some starters up to £10 and mains at £20. We ended up skipping starters (I would have been tempted by either of the ones that had run out!) and went for mains. My fish and chips was a curious thing, once it came.We waited fifty minutes from sitting down to receiving food which isn't great. I seem to recall on a previous visit being given bread to fill the gap and that might have been a nice touch. The fish was huge but there were a miserly six fat chips, another person had just five. When one of our group asked for chips to go with a similarly miserly vegetarian dish (and sadly the only one on the menu) they were told it would be fries as there were no more of the fatties! Presumably ours was a reduced portion if they had run out.The fish was great, the batter very good and not a sign of grease. I would have preferred a smaller fish (it was a whale) and more chips!!!We did ask for dessert menus but waited so long for someone to come back that we decided to have something at home instead. I do feel for the two table staff as they were servicing the restaurant, the bar and the hotel. Not having enough staff cost the place £15 from our table, at least.City prices in the country need to be accompanied by sharper delivery of the end product. I saw dishes on other tables come out late too. But it wouldn't take much at all for this place to move up a level, to the level they are charging for.

It is a long while since we stayed here and now we have moved into the area, so we thought we would go back. We so wasnt disapointed. The food was outstanding....Halibut was on the menu and I asked if I could have it cooked differently to the menu so they did was sublime....so worth VISIT. Thank you xxx

We haven't been to The Collingwood for a couple of years. It did not disappoint. Both ourselves and our friends live locally so it was easy to get to.The waitresses and the bar staff couldn't have been more helpful. The food was first class. We have all dined in Michelin * restaurants and honest the main course of venison loin was probably the best any of us have ever had.We weren't rushed, ok it was mid-week so not overly busy. The evening was fab. We will definitely return and the sooner the better for me.

Wij hebben hier als stel 3 nachten heerlijk geslapen na een zalige maaltijd in het restaurant van het hotel. We zochten rust en natuur en dat kregen we hier ook. Prima service, erg gastvrij!

Another fantastic annual visit. This is a very comfortable, relaxing and welcoming hotel.We were very well looked after and served by very professional friendly staff. Nothing was too much trouble. Our bedroom was spacious, clean and well appointed. The food was excellent throughout our weekend. We have already booked for next year.

We recently visited this hotel for a family celebration and were delighted with our reception and the quality of the food. The food was freshly prepared delightfully presented and was excellent value for money. We were all including the children made to feel welcome and valued.

First time stay here everything superb ,fab bedroom so comfortable and clean housekeepers do a great job. Dining room nice and food excellent,staff very helpful nothing to much trouble.Will certainly be back

Been meaning to visit here for a few years, every time we've tried it's always been fully booked which says something. Finally ate here early this evening, lovely decor and atmosphere, very good service, and good quality fresh food - the rack of lamb really had to be seen to be believed. Three courses plus wine all for £40 per head which was much cheaper than expected. I could find very little to fault this place, and will definitely be returning.

Ate here as part of a business trip to the area. I had breaded fish and chips which was really nice. The fish was lovely and light with the portion sizes really generous. The staff are very friendly too. I will be back next time for and overnight stay with the family.

Three of us enjoyed a delightful evening meal in the restaurant. Hake was on the menu and was cooked to perfection. Service was great, prompt and friendly. Would definitely return.

This hotel was recommended in the notes in our holiday cottage and we decided to give it a try, without booking. We were quickly shown to a large table which was set for four but could easily have seated eight.Service was excellent. Drinks orders taken quickly and the various menus provided and explained.My starter of scallops was well cooked and very tasty. Our mains of venison and fish and chips were all cooked to perfection and well presented. No room for desserts on this occasion.A real find on a holiday which did not always produce good eating places. Can't wait for my next visit to the area so I can try this hotel again.

Visited The Collngwood Arms last Sunday on the off chance and got the last table.Great food,great value,impeccable service.

The Collingwood Arms has a short lunch menu and cook it well. There's usually an interesting special beer (often local) on tap in the bar, in addition to the mainstream stuff you get everywhere.Service is fine, if not quick, and the main offense is piped music, playing whether the customers want it or not.The last time I ate there, I ordered their burger, which turned out to be a substantial dish, with chips and onion rings filling a pretty large plate. I did finish it, then didn't feel remotely hungry 'til lunchtime the next day. A pretty tasty burger it was too, although not the juiciest. Mind you, juicy burgers tend to disintegrate brioche buns, so maybe that was deliberate.My dad had the salmon and crayfish tian, which was more modestly proportioned without being meagre.I have eaten lunches at the Collingwood Arms several times over the last few years, and it seems to be very consistent, from the food to the beer, to the calm, subdued decor, to the service, to the boombox churning out unnecessary music by the side of the bar.
