Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Beautifully presented open and spacious room situated minutes away from the centre of Durham. Exceptionally comfortable bed, and we loved the laidback and assured personality of the host, felt very well equipped for guests and comfortable sharing their beautiful space with others. The breakfast was a lovely added touch.
