Experts' Choice Award Jesmond Dene House
What the experts agree on
Norman Shaw's 1871 Arts and Crafts mansion feels like a country retreat despite being minutes from Newcastle's centre, with period details like stained glass and oak panelling throughout. Free parking sweetens the deal.
Fodor's "This hotel is surrounded by lush gardens and filled with polished oak floors, huge windows, and wandering staircases." Full review
Rough Guide Star

The Telegraph8.0
"A grand city mansion that persuades you it’s a rather lovely country house." Full review
The Guardian "Jesmond Dene House (doubles from £108) is a boutique hotel 10 minutes’ drive from the centre in a Grade II-listed house with restaurant."
Independent "You could be in a remote woodland at this elegant Victorian manor house hotel, but instead you’re just a six-minute taxi from the town centre in Jesmond Dene, a valley packed with fir trees, with the River Ouse Burn babbling past"
The Guardian "Largely created by Norman Shaw in 1871 for a local arms manufacturer, this mansion showcases British Arts and Crafts at its most exuberant with its panelling, plasterwork, stone carvings and stained glass; a glorious historical mashup"
