Experience A Festive Fairy-tale Stay at Langley Castle Hotel

Decked halls, roaring fires and Christmas cocktails served in a medieval setting, are all elements of the memorable two or three-night luxurious festive experience at the exquisite Langley Castle Hotel in Northumberland.

You could wake up in this enchanting 14th century castle – just a short hop from Hexham - on Christmas morning and then see your Christmas fairy-tale magically unfold over the next couple of days.

Christmas at Langley Castle Hotel is a joyous occasion, played out in cosy medieval window seats, in front of roaring log fires and in the light that cascades through huge stained-glass windows or sparkling chandeliers.

It is also full of festive cheer and sumptuous food served in the truly unique setting of the 2AA Rosette, Josephine’s restaurant.  

Wannabe kings and queens of the castle can choose a two or three-day experience, which both begin on December 24 with cocktails and a delightful Christmas Eve meal served in atmospheric Josephine’s.

Your luxurious accommodation can also be tailored to your desires and budget, with a choice of a Deluxe Castle Room inside Langley’s castle walls, or a more contemporary fabulous room in Castle View, in its extensive grounds.

On the big day itself, once a glorious Northumbrian breakfast has been served, the Langley chefs will continue to tend to every culinary need, conjuring up a festive lunch to remember, with all the trimmings and a few innovative twists.  

If, later on, guests are still peckish, they can indulge in an evening hot and cold buffet, just leaving enough room for their hearty breakfast on Boxing Day.

If staying for a three-day experience, guests can perhaps chill out castle-style even more, knowing both lunch and breakfast included, or explore further afield.

Also included and not-to-be-missed in the festive package is a Battlements Tour of Langley Castle, which allows guests to fully appreciate its rich and colourful medieval history.  Quiet time can also be spent in the wooded and lawned grounds, whilst excess calories can be walked off by driving for just a short distance and exploring the walking routes along Hadrian’s Wall. 

A two-night stay, for two people sharing costs between £505 (Castle View Lodge) and £700 (Castle Feature Room) per person, with a range of other choices outside and inside the castle in-between.  A three-night stay for two people in the former costs £641 per person and £933 per person in the latter, again with other options available.  Single person supplements apply to these rates, which are for shared room occupancy.
