Great spot about 10 minutes from Durham & close to Durham’s park & ride. Warm welcome from bar staff who doubled as receptionist, showed to our room. Limited off street parking but on street parking available. Pub was busy & other patrons friendly. Food was good & big serves.

Great location less than10 minutes from Durham, so the perfect base without the price tag of Durham hotels.
The staff where friendly and welcoming.
The cooked breakfast was very tasty and plentiful.
We did not try the dinner options, but it's a lovely, friendly pub.
Our room was a great size and the bed was comfy with a lovely feather duvet.
Would definetly stay again.

Booked for new year but forgot to leave a review! Arrived about 4pm, had a late lunch which was nice, drinks were flowing nicely, got talking to the locals and stayed at the bar all night! Richard, Clare & staff were great and were very welcoming, nothing was any trouble. The room was spacious and very comfortable, had a lovely full English breakfast before our departure the next day. Would definitely return!

A good friendly stay.
The best compliment I can give is that we will be back again. What really stood out apart from the comfy rooms and fantastic breakfast was how helpful and willing the staff were to rectify any concerns or issues.
