"Really good home cooked food at a good price too but hotel side of the pub was a little expensive considering breakfast wasnt included but it was comfortable and clean and nice for me personally to have memory foam pillows instead of feather filled ones. "
"Set in lovely countryside views, owners & staff all veey friendly & helpful, fabulous choice of breakfasts, meals available during evening also with a varied menu including gluten free. No hesitation in recommending The Royal Oak for any length of stay, wish we could have stayed for longer!!!!"
"A beautiful old building, full of history yet offering a surprising amount of facilities. Lovely pool area, stunning grounds, great breakfast. Really great value for money and I would definitely stay again. "
"Lovely, quiet hotel close to old Durham. Staff were very friendly and helpful, and particular kudos to those working the evening shift in the restaurant and bar."
"We enjoyed our stay at the Castle and the staff were wonderful. The property is isolated so be prepared to stay in respect to dining etc. Our meals were delicious and the dining area was lovely. The room was small but comfortable "

"Excellent stay with my two kids. Loads to do locally and on your doorstep. Short walk to two lakes plus an excellent local playground. Woukd highly recommend."
"Well this booking was made on the whole purpose of having a relaxing weekend after running 350km for charity over the past few months.
So we booked here for the hot tub and the relevant ease of running a Park Run on the Saturday.
After running this Park Run we returned back to the accommodation for our day of in and out of the hot tub.
Although this turned out to be turned off so we had an ice bath, not advertised on the website. We then were told that we would get a nights refund for this error. (2 weeks on still waiting).
The hosts did bring someone round to fill the hot tub up to enable us to get in which took around 30-40 minutes.
But then we discovered the cooker doesn’t work by this time we had had enough and just packed up and went home.
My verdict on this accommodation is don’t bother and certainly get anything they offer in writing. "
