"Pros: Really good communication from host. Decorated nicely. Log burner (extra charge if using hosts logs). Milk in fridge. 8 minutes drive to Beamish museum. 4 minutes drive to a really good play park and splash area, by the river. Comfy beds and bedding. The accommodation was really clean. Shower heats up quick, large shower head. Dog bowls and biscuit treats - nice extra. Cons: Oven was broken by previous guest (on request, host was really good at providing air fryers).

"The property is conveniently situated just off the main road in Barnard castle, it is at the end of a dingy looking alleyway with a very tight driveway. Upon arrival, the decoration looked aesthetically pleasing but we soon realised that most aspects of the house were badly designed/ not practical.The house was not cleaned well before we arrived, we had to empty a bin in one of the bedrooms which was filled with stuff left by the previous occupier, we also tried to vacuum as the floors were...

Top Durham Hotel Reviews

Radisson BLU Hotel Durham

8/10 Good

"Clean modern room great location and friendly staff"

Manor House Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The staff were very welcoming and helpful on arrival. The room was comfortable, clean and we slept very well. The spa was nice to relax in and worth paying the extra £20 per person for as you could use it all day. Breakfast was freshly cooked and they had gluten free toast ands croissants and the restaurant food was delicious with a good choice of gluten free options."

Lumley Castle Hotel

8/10 Good

"The room was lovely but I had to clean the bath myself before I could use it. The floor in the bathroom wasn't very clean round the edges Bed very comfortable Staff on reception very friendly & a member of staff helped with my bags as I had to park a way from the entrance. Beautiful hotel & grounds."

Honest Lawyer Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The property is nice, comfortable, and well-maintained, making it a good option for a short stay in Durham. The room was clean, and the overall atmosphere was welcoming. One thing to keep in mind is the location. If you plan to visit Durham city centre frequently, Uber fares can be around £15 each way, so it is worth factoring this into your budget. The hotel is a good choice if you have your own transport or don't mind spending a little extra on getting around."
