Win a Two-Night Stay with Dinner and Breakfast at The Tempus

The Tempus, from one of the North East’s fastest growing hospitality businesses, The Doxford Group, has 15 sumptuous bedrooms and suites, and is also home to a stunning bar, restaurant and orangery boasting idyllic views over the estate and beyond.

Championing authentic Northumberland dishes with a twist, diners can expect well-loved classics including Tempus fish and chips, shepherd’s pie and seasonal risotto executed using locally-sourced, high quality produce and signature plates such as locally-sourced Lindisfarne oysters, lobster Thermidor, truffle gnocchi and a sharing chateaubriand, as well as a variety of starter, main course and dessert options.

Sitting alongside impressive dining menus, guests can also enjoy Instagram-worthy cocktails as well as an extensive drinks menu featuring carefully selected wines, local spirits, familiar beers and ciders from nearby suppliers including Rigg & Furrow Ale, Marlish Tonic, Hepple Gin and Alnwick Rum.

Taking interiors inspiration from the well-known tale Alice in Wonderland, The Tempus is in keeping with its rebellious sister venue, Charlton Hall. Bringing the ‘entirely bonkers’ concept to life, this is a wonderland for guests with juxtaposing colour palettes and lavish soft furnishings. Expect the unexpected and enjoy a totally unique, yet superbly luxurious getaway in the heart of Northumberland.

The fabulous prize includes a two night stay in a superior king room with dinner both evenings and a hearty Northumberland breakfast.
