Warm, inviting atmosphere with a charming local bar.

Our stay was marred by significant disorganization. The lack of clear communication and staff presence made us feel unwelcome and frustrated.

The warm and friendly welcome made for a pleasant stay, and the bar offered an excellent selection of food. Breakfast was particularly great, setting us up well for the day.

Parking could be a bit challenging during busy times, especially with limited spaces near the bar area. some organization at check-in could be improved.

The modern and nicely appointed ensuite featured a decent sized, powerful shower, making for a refreshing experience.

Parking could be a bit of a hassle in peak times, particularly near the busy bar area.

The room was comfy, but our check-in turned into a disaster.

good location in centre of village, lively bar atmosphere, modern ensuite features

The disorganization at this establishment is simply unacceptable!!! The lack of food options is disappointing, and having to pay again just to stay is confusing!!! Communication seemed non-existent during my stay!!!

Lovely Warkworth vibes! 🏰

The lekker breakfast was a solid start to the day. The room was nice and cosy. The chommies at reception were super friendly, always ready with a smile. We loved the bar! Great vibes and a proper local feel, really made the stay special!

Parking could be a bit of a hassle in peak times, so maybe plan ahead there.

my stay was just absurd, we arrived only to be told we couldn't stay because your online payments weren't accepted. also, the staff was nowhere to be found, so my grand entrance woudl ve been hardly memorable. i almost considered leaving a good review, but really, what kind of establishment leaves guests in limbo like this?

Historic charm and great food!

I had a fantastic 5-day stay filled with warmth and history. The room was clean and tidy, and my meals were great, especially the hearty bar food and spot-on breakfast that fueled my adventures exploring the coastal path. The atmosphere was lively, making it an enjoyable base to unwind after a day of exploring Warkworth's local attractions. It would be nice if parking was a bit more manageable during peak times.

100% recommend for spending night

Comfortable room, welcoming staff, with a powerful shower that made my stay refreshing and enjoyable, while the excellent breakfast provided a solid start for exploring the nearby local shops and attractions.

It was all fantastic.

The lovely decor made it feel like home, and the bar had live music on Fridays, creating a fun atmosphere.

We had a lovely stay with amazing homemade food, especially the steak pie! The cleanliness was impressive, but the noisy road outside was a bit bothersome. I'd definitely return!

my stay at the hermitage was fantastic! the room was cozy and clean, definitely exceeding my expectations from my previous visit. i loved the warm atmosphere and the enjoyable bar vibe.

no food options available during stay.

Just a prime choice for a weekend excursion in Warkworth with extraordinarily good value for money. The bar food was excellent, especially enjoying a hearty meal after a long day of walking. Make sure to explore the local shops nearby.
