Staying here during a 6 month business assignment but I'd certainly return for pleasure with my wife. Good country side location for visiting Durham and other parts of the North East.

I stayed here on business but I'd go back for leisure - it's just a short drive from Durham. Peaceful setting and absolutely excellent, friendly hosts.
