"Beautiful house with amazing views."
Lovely decked outside area around the hot tub. It is the perfect combination, both spacious and private. The house was very comfortable and so were the beds. We had a few issues with the heating/hot water but when we contacted the owner they were very helpful and came out to sort this straight away. 10/10 customer care.

"What a beautiful little getaway, we stayed for 2 nights celebrating a couple of birthday's."
The place is amazing, even better than the pictures advertised on the site. It had everything you needed and the beds were so comfortable! Hot tub with the most amazing views and we got to see two deers one morning right on the field, which was lovely. We will 100% be back, it was worth every penny for how nice the place is, the decor was just lush! We've had the most perfect little weekend away & the dog also loved his stay too, thank you!

Situated in one of the most beautiful counties of England, Durham city is one of the jewels in England’s crown. Dominated by the historic centre, a World Heritage Site, the city is home to magnificent Durham Cathedral, with its breath-taking vaulted ceiling and splendid architecture. The cathedral, the final resting place of the Venerable Bede, is one of the finest examples of Norman architecture in the whole of Europe.

The city itself offers elegant buildings and fascinating narrow streets with excellent shopping, eating and drinking to suit all tastes. Add to that the ease of access to the rest of this historic county, “Land of the Prince Bishops”, and Durham has much to offer the discerning traveller, from Medieval castles to marvellous landscapes and scenic walks. Durham city is the ideal location for discovering this beautiful county.
