This is a wonderful cottage in a great location.
This is a wonderful cottage in a great location. The property is very spacious yet comfortable and homely. So relaxing here I didn't feel the need to go out just because I was on holiday. There is a large screen TV, plenty of games and books, plus you can cook up a storm in the well equipped kitchen. The accommodation itself is within a 30 minute stroll along the river to Durham centre and even during Covid-19, there are plenty of eateries offering excellent food. This property I would highly recommend. Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo
