“Great accommodation in a great location - definitely recommend”
Mrs Aldridge July 2019

“Comfortable stay at Eureka Mews - liked the fact there was secure parking.”

The apartment was nicely decorated and well equipped with good wi-fi. The flat information mentioned a visit by a cleaner and a linen change but that didn’t happen. It’s in a very handy position for Durham (15 mins) and Newcastle (25mins). The owner , Nigel, is very friendly. Close to local amenities with a village shop/ post office and pub five minutes away. Good Indian restaurant 10 minutes drive away at Chester Moor.
Mr Haveron July 2019

“Great location, just a 10-15 minute bus ride from the city centre.”

The 21 bus runs every 15 minutes from the Red Lion pub about 5 minutes walk from the flat and terminates at the bus station so very convenient Durham is a ton of 2 halves but once over the bridge it is lovely with the breath taking cathedral and lovely riverside walks. Highly recommend The Cellar Door restaurant (under Zizi's and next to the gents outfitters) for superb food and reasonable prices e.g. set menu for 3 courses is £18 pp Being a ground floor flat I wouldn't recommend this property in the heat wave we stayed for as you can't really open windows, however that said it is a very comfortable flat, with 2 showers / bathrooms which is a bonus.
Mrs Clarke June 2019

“The apartment was very spacious, the owner very helpful and we could not have wished for a more pleasant place to stay.”

It was good to have secure parking. The friendly village was a former mining village, but you only had to walk or drive a couple of miles to encounter beautiful scenery and very quiet roads. It was useful to have a shop very nearby and the Red Lion pub was dog friendly as well as people friendly and we enjoyed our meals there. We spent two days at Beamish, and also loved Gibside, an interesting National Trust property. We enjoyed Bowlees Visitor Centre, and the lovely walk from there to Low Force and High Force waterfalls. We were very pleasantly surprised at the coastal resort of Seaham, which has been transformed from a derelict mining area to a beautiful seaside resort.
Mr Cooke May 2019

“Effortless, hassle-free experience from start to finish.”

Would thoroughly recommend both the house we use and Sykes in general - we have booked through Sykes for many years and have never had anything less than a superb break. Will be back next year!
Mr Herring November 2018

“We enjoyed our stay and would recommend this property.”

It is very well situated and great for easy travel to both Newcastle and Durham. The apartment is very well furnished and has everything you might require including dishwasher, washing machine etc. The local area is extremely friendly and the local pub (3 mins walk) did not disappoint either. We hope to return.
Mr Chapman September 2018

“Very well situated being only 3 miles north of the city centre of Durham, which allows for easy access by car or a god location for visiting the area.”

However there is a bus stop only 30 metres from the apartment with a service taking direct into the city. The apartment is very well appointed with all the comforts of home, with secure parking.
Mr Osullivan September 2018

“Place was very clean and well set out.”

Great to have secure parking. Good location. Pubs, eating establishments, petrol station and shopping centre all relatively close by. TV reception was poor and internet seemed a bit slow on a couple of occasions but nothing that would spoil our holiday. So apart from these minor gripes would recommend.
Mrs Mackintosh June 2018

“This is a modern and accessible apartment.”

It is well and attractively furnished. Great location for Durham, the North Pennine dales, Beamish and Durham Heritage Coast, which are both beautiful and historic. Having returned to this area after 40 years, most of the traces of the heavy industrial past are gone, but the pride and memories of locals are strong. The Upper valleys of Tees, Wear and Tyne are stunning beautiful and so much less crowded than the Yorkshire Dales; hidden gems. A week of beautiful weather and clear blue skies helped! My only grumbles were traffic noise and the window blinds which let in early morning light. I would be happy to revisit this property.
Mr Dolan December 2017

“We were met at the property by Nigel as arranged.”

The property was in excellent condition having just been re-decorated. The property had everything required to make our stay a pleasurable experience. Local information, reading material and DVD's were provided which were a nice touch. I would most certainly recommend this property to anyone visiting the northeast of England. The owners of the property should be very proud of the service that they provide, it is an outstanding apartment superbly presented. Many thanks to Nigel and his team.

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 breathtaking 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.
