Durham City Cottages

We have stayed here before a couple of years ago, but now it's a different story! The cottages have all been completely refurbished and modernised and are absolutely fantastic. Nicely finished, fully equipped - hob, oven, microwave, fridge, washing machine, iron, coffee maker, and loads more useful equipment in the kitchen cupboards. Great shower, plenty of hot water and good pressure. As converted stables they used to be a bit dark, but they have had new roof lights installed so lots of natural light now which makes a big difference. And could not be easier to park - right outside. We had 3 cottages for our group and they were all outstanding. They are located at the top of the hill in picturesque Brandon Village, and around the back of a nice pub, The Bay Horse, which does fab food and has great staff.

Amazing The cottage was perfect. Everything that you would need for a stay. Immaculately clean, decor was lovely. Location was very picturesque and quiet. Will be booking for a longer stay next time

Nice Apartment Stayed here before these were apartments, no idea how the owners have done it tbh,now has a little settee and separate bedroom which is en-suite, also a small but well stocked kitchen even has a little dishwasher if your staying longer than 1 night

Great little stop close to Durham and reasonable price vs the city centre

Awesome little out of the way cottages, we had a simple over night stay for a birthday and the cottage was perfect. Extremely clean, looked to have just been refurbished with everything needed for a short stay. Lovely few drinks at the Bay horse infront of an open fire, with well priced excellent food. Easy to find, and parked right outside the property, easy no hassle check in / out If I had any gripe which isn’t really a gripe is that they are obviously putting work into upgrading the properties which ours had been and not was lovely, however the parking area was littered with rubbish and off cuts of wood, tiles, sand, cement etc , greggs cups sandwich bags etc and car was totally covered in building dust the next morning when we left. Altogether a fantastic little quiet break at a very very reasonable price
