About this property
Elvet Bridge View at Durham Riverside Apartments
Please view our recent photographs. Elvet apartment has an entrance hallway which leads to a ground floor WC and the living space. Featuring a sociable, open plan living area with a generously equipped kitchen and dining table, the space is elegantly furnished and comfortable. The French doors open from the lounge to the outside decked terrace where you can enjoy the river views or feed the passing ducks. Laura Ashley soft furnishings and original artwork by The Rocks Brothers are presented throughout the apartment.
There are 2 bedrooms facing the inner courtyard and the main bathroom on the upper floor. The master bedroom with king sized bed and en suite bathroom with a further generous double room with a double bed. The beds are prepared with crisp white 800TC Egyptian Cotton linen, with seasonal goose feather duvets. Wrap yourself in a plush bathrobe and wander downstairs to make the most of the floor to ceiling windows in the lounge, perfectly placed to enjoy the river views with a morning coffee whilst curled up on the sofa. You'll find fluffy white towels in the bathrooms with complimentary toiletries and hand lotion throughout.
Our Kingsgate apartment is located in the same building with similar vistas from all rooms which are located on one level.
Kingsgate and Elvet are two luxury self-catering apartments in the heart of Durham City, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The luxury apartments offer an unrivalled location on the banks of the River Wear with just a few minutes walking distance to the Cathedral, Castle, University, shops and restaurants.
Overlooking the river, they provide a spacious alternative to a hotel or guest house whilst offering all the luxury and amenities of a hotel suite for the perfect self-catering break. The properties are ideal for families or guests visiting the University, a romantic break for two or travellers wishing to enjoy the sights of Durham City. Enjoy a complimentary glass of wine or relax with a Nespresso coffee or pot of tea while you sit outside on the decked terrace and unwind, watching the rowing boats.
Both apartments have free secure parking, unlimited WiFi and children under 2 years are free.

**Please note that the apartments are located in the city centre and adjacent to several bars. As a university city students will celebrate various achievements throughout the year loudly.**
The first apartment was originally purchased for our son who was studying law at Durham University and was offered as holiday accommodation during the summer break to the academic year. We soon realised the demand for such a centrally located venue for other visiting parents and so the second apartment came to fruition.
We now take pleasure in ensuring that our guest receive a 5-star welcome and aim to make their stay with us as relaxing as possible.
