Good breakfast with a choice of hot options. Parking which is rare in Durham Quiet street away from city centre noise

Jennifer United Kingdom

Very clean fairly central, staff friendly and food superb!

Robert United Kingdom

Excellent food in the restaurant, and we also had visitors come to see us during the 4 nights stay, and everyone was very impressed by the menu and food. We even had a party of almost 20 family members joining us one evening. Very charming pub/bar - never too noisy. Breakfast was very good! Staff super helpful and just lovely. Especially one guy (who also was a nurse) was super helpful and understanding with our mum with dementia. (she did walk into the wrong room sometimes) The location is just perfect! About 12 minutes to walk into city centre. And a short walk to the railway station. Plenty of parking for all who came to meet us. Even though it was so central, we felt as if we where in the countryside.
