Ramside Hall Hotel Named 'Larger Business of the Year' at North East Chamber Awards

1 July, 2026

ENGLAND - The ongoing investment and continued rapid growth of Ramside Hall Hotel, Golf and Spa has been recognized at one of the North East’s most prestigious business award ceremonies.

The County Durham hotel beat out strong competition to claim the title of Larger Business of the Year at the North East Chamber of Commerce Business Awards, held on Thursday, June 17, at Gateshead’s Glasshouse.

Multimillion-Pound Expansion Drives Massive Growth

The award marks the latest success for the hotel, which has expanded its offerings over more than a decade to establish itself as a major destination.

Its most recent addition—a £9.2 million project called The Pin—features state-of-the-art driving ranges, electronic games, a bowling alley, and an American-style food and bar venue. The new development has put the hotel on track for a projected 40 percent growth this year.

“We are thrilled to have been chosen for the award which we see as real recognition for the continued investment in Ramside Hall Hotel,” said hotel owner John Adamson. “The Pin has had a phenomenal response since the day we opened but that’s not just a success story for us, it’s for the region as a whole as it turns a spotlight on what we have to offer and helps grown visitor numbers.”

Economic Impact and Sustainability Focus

In addition to employing 400 staff members, the hotel is heavily investing in sustainability measures. This includes new solar generation systems designed to save 160 tonnes of $CO_2$ annually.

With an award-winning spa, championship golf courses, four restaurants, and unique accommodations—including a range of large and small treehouses—the hotel remains a significant contributor to the North East economy.

“Ramside Hall Hotel is not only responding to changes within the hospitality sector — it is actively shaping what a modern destination resort should be,” Adamson added.
