More Downtown than Downton perhaps but this monster of a hotel in North Brunton make a comfortable launch-pad for flights to and from Newcastle Airport. Located on the fringes of the Northumberland National Park.
With a leisure club that boasts a sauna, Jacuzzi and indoor pool, plus a range of indulgent beauty treatments in the spa, the Gosforth Park hotel in Newcastle has become something of a magnet for those well-heeled town and city dwellers looking to blow their bonus packets on a bit of well earned pampering. Set within 12 acres of lush and private parkland this Marriott hotel boasts the best of both worlds: the buzzing nightlife of Newcastle City Centre on the one hand, the sweeping historical beauty of Northumbria and Hadrian’s Wall and the calming quietude of a charming country retreat.
Tennis and squash courts provide the basis of a more spirited stay and there is also a well-equipped gym. Don’t let the faintly ‘brutalist’ and misleading 70s architecture put you off as Gosforth Park is a comfortable and attractive hotel in just about every other respect – even if it is more ‘Down Town’ than ‘Downton’ exactly – R4U
