9.0

Really spacious property with all the facilities we needed for a 2 night stay. We were attending a wedding in Durham and the property was great value for money and just a short drive from Durham centre. Friendly welcome from the pub staff who showed us round the property and even had the bonus of a little welcome package with some food and treats – really appreciated that! Plenty of space for the 6 of us.
