Excellent Christmas gift

Having our voucher meant we could have a few days away during half term. A much needed break that we might not otherwise have been able to stretch to.

Overnight Spa Break with Treatment and Dinner for Two at Greenwoods Hotel and Spa
Sandie · 18-10-2025

A very comfortable stay

We were given a room in the annexe next to The Malthouse, as we'd noticed they have a lot of live music. The room was perfect - comfortable and warm enough with a nice ensuite bathroom. Plenty of choice at breakfast in the main hotel, and the staff were always friendly and helpful. Ironbridge is a pretty town with river walks and plenty to explore. Many thanks for a relaxing break!

Amazing

We were in one of the new pods, with the en-suite. It was amazing. Very clean and comfortable. The staff were all amazing. The breakfast was was good and the service was good. I would highly recommend this venue. The golf course is a mixture are hard and easy, some of the tee shots were difficult. An overall amazing venue.

Excellent value

Forresters is set in charming Middleton in lovely Teesdale and near many other attractions such as Raby castle. The rooms are very comfortable with excellent beds, the food is top quality French cuisine at ordinary prices or standard food such as burgers or chilli con carne if you want that instead. The bar is friendly and good value and Franck a great host. If you want quieter rooms away from the bar just ask. This is one of the loveliest and best value places in the UK and Middleton itself is a friendly unspoilt large village still with a wide range of facilities, including several excellent cafes, pharmacy and supermarket, that you wouldn’t normally expect nowadays even in much larger places and where the community is a good mix including of all ages.

Fantastic experience

Every staff member we met was so friendly and welcoming. The safari was lots of fun and having the golf buggies meant no complaints of tired feet. We had dinner at Babydolls restaurant and the food was excellent. The kids had the best time..
