some of the rooms are quite dark. Food at the hotel is quite expensive,that's okay because there are loads of local pubs around. Staff are excellent…

Attended wedding and booked superior double. Room enormous with lovely view, four poster bed, two arm chairs , tea making facilities. Bed was so comfortable . Quite firm which his my preference. Large immaculate bathroom with a bath you could lie full length in and gallons of hot water. Breakfast was good but the restaurant was rather chilly for this time of year. My only negative comment is that the carpeting in bedroom and main staircase was past its sell by date and really needs replacing. I did not use Spa facilities. Knights Hall was a great venue for the wedding and the staff were friendly .…Attended wedding and booked superior double.

Lovely Cosy Cottage…

5 out of 5

We really enjoyed our stay at Heron Cottage. It is in a fantastic location for off road walks for our dog, Lema. There is a path next to the single track railway less than 100 yards from the cottage which leads to Low Barn Nature Reserve and other paths. There is a circular 1.5 mile walk at the reserve as well as a friendly cafe in the reserve. We met Sue upon arrival at the cottage who took the time to explain everything we needed to know. The cottage had everything we needed and the wood burner made it very cosy. Durham is less than 30 minute drive away. We visited the local pub, The Victoria Inn which was very friendly and ate at The Golden Tree in Spennymoor and The Court Inn in Durham. Both were very dog friendly and good value for money. The road is fairly busy but there is a gate in the front garden to help. Because of the road you need to be careful and keep dogs on the lead when leaving and make sure young children are holding an adults hand when leaving. There is no wifi which wasn't a problem for us as it mentions this in the cottage details but it is listed as having wifi on the amenities site which is slightly confusing so only gave it 4 stars for accuracy of listing . Overall it is 5 stars. We look forward to booking again when we next visit our son who is studying in Durham.…We really enjoyed our stay at Heron Cottage.

I challenge anyone to find the slightest thing wrong with this Guest House, which we considered to be perfect. From the warm and genuine welcome, help with direction and suggested destinations, to a clean and comfortable room, and an excellent breakfast. A bonus was a lounge for guests, with a lovely open log fire, regularly tended to by the hostess. We would not dream of staying anywhere else in this area.…I challenge anyone to find the slightest thing wrong with this Guest House, which we considered to be perfect.
