This is a beautiful place to stay. The staff are lovely very efficient and friendly. If you want a break to relax and recharge your batteries this is the place to be. The food is amazing we had an evening meal and breakfast. The lady on reception was so nice. Booking. Com had mixed our booking up and gave us the wrong room but she quickly rectified this error. The round copper bath is the icing on the cake. I will look forward to our next stay as we will definitely be returning maybe in the summer to explore the beautiful surroundings. Thank you for a lovely stay.

We had an amazing stay. Our room was brilliant looking over the village green, it was very spacious and has everything we needed. We had an evening meal and breakfast during our stay. Both meals were very well presented and tasted delicious. All of the staff were very attentive and made our stay relaxed and enjoyable. We would definitely stay here again and will be back for food soon.

Nice room , groundfloor so perfect for dog , comfortable bed , shower-room etc , clean and comfy, plenty of storage , good telly , easy access to walks - lanes and paths and village . The Croxdale is a friendly pub as well as hotel plus there are others in the area like the Green Tree - a nice walk away that does lunches. Bus service into town is frequent and affordable and close by . There is a riverside walk from nearby along the river into the City which is a delight .

Room high quality, great WiFi, very quiet despite being close to busy road. Easy access from A1. Ideal location for visiting both Durham and Newcastle.

We absolutely loved the old part of the city with the cobbled streets, historic properties, the spectacular cathedral, the castle and the riverside walk. We were astonished by the huge number of students from all over the world and the brilliant atmosphere they created around the old streets. There were an incredible number of places to eat and drink - something to suit every taste! We found a multistorey car park close to the river which was very reasonable and handy for the places we wanted to go. Going to Beamish was absolutely worth it too.

The castle and grounds is amazing, very interesting and very beautiful. The Spanish Gallery is incredible - to find such a superb collection here and so well displayed. The Mining Art Gallery is well worth a visit. The wider town is very run-down but great efforts are being made to reinvigorate it and it is beginning to show. The people are also very pleasant. Currently hard to find nice places to stay and to eat out, but that will get better. A new central hotel is currently being built. There are a couple of pleasant cafes and a Wetherspoons in a historic central building. Our second visit, and we will be back again.
