From my very first contact with the Town House I was impressed by the friendliness of the staff. Nothing was too much trouble. The room itself was beautifully furnished -if a little dark and I would have welcomed a reading light as the 'interior design lamps' gave little light Would certainly go again the next time I visit Durham

We stayed in one of the Swift Pods at Riverside and loved every minute. We got a really helpful phone call before arriving to ensure we had all the information we needed.
