“This accommodation was just what we needed as my daughter, son in law and three grandchildren were relocating back to Durham from Sydney, Australia.”

With my eldest grandson starting school, the middle granddaughter starting nursery and a five week old baby the cottage was just perfect. Lovely and warm and cosy, spotlessly clean and exceptionally well equipped. Comfortable beds and great bathroom facilities too. The owner was very accommodating and helpful, being on site has its benefits. We would definitely stay again and would recommend to others too.
