Set in 300 acres of parkland, in the charming village of Matfen, this ancestral home of Sir Hugh and Lady Blackett has welcomed guests since 1999. Amongst the varied dining options in the Matfen Hall Hotel, the Library and Print Room Restaurant is perhaps the best known. Making for one of the finest gastronomic experiences in Northumberland, the interior retains its original character with walls lined with books, and stately surroundings creating a warm and elegant ambiance.

The 2 AA Rosette restaurant offers the best of traditional and classic British cooking using the freshest ingredients in season and locally sourced meat and produce. Pressed chicken and artichoke terrine with tomato chutney is well executed and can be followed by pan fried sea trout with wilted spinach and bisque velouté. Baileys and white chocolate cheesecake and iced mango parfait provides a perfect finish.
