The room was very clean and comfortable, it was ideal for a stop on our way home from northern Horthumberland. The breakfast was excellent and the staff were very friendly and helpful. And the value for your money was excellent

A good option for a family visiting Durham University or, as we did, attending a graduation ceremony. Only a 20-minute drive from the centre of Durham, but cheaper than staying centrally in Durham. Friendly staff, good full English breakfast. We had a room that slept 4 people, which looked relatively recently renovated with ensuite shower and toilet. Shower was good.

Spacious family room which worked really well for two humans and one pooch for a night. Room at the back of the pub which was really really quiet and peaceful overnight. Such a shame the double glazing has blown and the view out over the fields was obscured as it was lovely. Good sized hot shower. A few hooks on doors and towel rails would be the only thing to add to the space. Lovely original character features in the room. Very comfortable beds made for a good night's sleep for all 3! Great dog walks on the doorstep of this dog accomodating accommodation. Good breakfast with bacon, egg and mushrooms cooked to perfection! Would stay again and recommend to stay at this friendly establishment.

Excellent - friendly hosts. Nothing is too much trouble. Rooms are clean and way above the star listing in terns of facilities. There is a pub below the accommodation but there is no issue with noise. The food is very good quality and plenty of ir. This pace is my ‘go to’ on business to the North East

A really nice friendly place to stay offering a warm welcome, very nice, spotlessly clean en suite comfortable rooms, at truly amazing prices, which include a fantastic breakfast. The inn also provides good wholesome food all day. I thoroughly recommend this as a place to stay to break your journey en route to Scotland.
