RIVERDALE HALL
LEISURE HOTEL, GOURMET RESTAURANT AND EVENTS VENUE
PERFECT LOCATION
Riverdale Hall Hotel lies on the banks of the beautiful North Tyne River on the outskirts of the small charming market town of Bellingham. Although we are very easy to reach by rail and road, Northumberland is a low-populated rural county in the North East, on the England-Scotland border, containing one of the most picturesque and untouched stretches of coastline with 30-miles of unspoiled beaches.
With more castles than any other county and heritage sites such as Hadrian's Wall plus stunning walks across rolling hills and low mountains or tranquil fishing on one of the best salmon and trout rivers in the UK, it feels a world away from city life given its ruggedness, remoteness, culture and landscape. It is said that the scenery feels as much Scotland as it does England.

THE HOTEL
Riverdale Hall is often considered more of a retreat for relaxing and unwinding or for more energetic activities if so inclined, with so much to do on site and close by. Built in 1886 as a Victorian Mansion, we have retained all of the original charm and character whilst converting it into a luxury, modern country house hotel with 28 individually decorated bedrooms, indoor heated pool and sauna. Just outside, you can enjoy a game of cricket, golf or superb salmon, sea trout and still water fishing too.
Named the “Best Hotel in Northumberland", this premier Country House Hotel with its award-winning cuisine and lovely, extensive grounds, quaint riverside location and wonderful views means nearly all who stay at Riverdale Hall come back time and again.

SELF CATERING
For those who want the facilities of the hotel but prefer their own space, we also have some of Northumberland’s finest self-catering accommodation, set within the grounds of the Riverdale Hall Hotel.
This is your ideal holiday escape. Stay in one of four luxury built stone apartments just 30 yards to the south of the main hall.
The two first-floor apartments, Blakey and Graham, have balconies and the ground-floor apartments, Abrahams and Milburn, patio areas, all overlooking the cricket field, the North Tyne River and bridge and Dunterley Fell (Pennine Way).
