Accommodation

Set in 26 acres of spectacular grounds, Eastwood Hall combines the beauty of a period property with the modern comforts of a 4* hotel. Located in the historic home town of DH Lawrence, Eastwood Hall was built in the early 19th Century and bought by the coal mine owning Walker family. The new National Coal Board acquired Eastwood Hall firstly as their Area Offices and later the Board's National Offices. This was the location for several crisis meetings during the National Miners’ Strike in the 1980s. Nowadays, pleasant grounds, spacious public areas and a popular leisure club make for a relaxing stay in historic surroundings.

Booked on line after ringing for some more info. Call centre helpful and pleasant. Website booking form a bit awkward at accepting telephone numbers.

I really enjoyed myself, I was a bit nervous before hand first time I have been away without a family member, but I do make friends easily so settled in really good. My room had a sea view it was perfect, beautiful. The bed was so comfortable, I probably had one the best sleeps the first night, but the rest of the week was fine too. i only had one problem when I went to eat in the restaurant I had ordered soup with a bread roll, well it was rock hard, well I put that down as an error of judgement on their part.
