"Nice cottage although miles from anywhere. Pub nice and friendly."

"Lovely cosy cottage. Hosts were very friendly and helpful.We loved the wildlife and the spectacular views. So peaceful and a very short drive to Barnard castle. If I'm to be picky I would say a heater would be a good idea in the conservatory for colder months. The cottage itself was really warm. I can honestly say there is nothing to complain about. We enjoyed every minute. Thank you."

"Lovely cottage which is situated close to Durham City centre.Helpful, friendly host, who was on hand when we had any problems. Also, a very good Italian restaurant next door."

"We had the most amazing weekend at The Barn in Oakenshaw for a hen do with 16 of us! It was the perfect place for a weekend full of laughs, dancing, prosecco, and making forever memories with the bride to be. It was cosy and welcoming but with loads of space for everyone to get together and enjoy all the hen do fun. Claire, the host was fantastic throughout, from the moment we booked there was great communication and she was always on hand if we needed anything, which made the whole trip so easy...

"Excellent all around will return"

"Spotlessly clean and so cosy Brilliant stay Lovely pub within walking distance "

"The house was new and spacious. We had five of us staying there, and we had plenty of room and privacy. It was also a quiet location, so we got a good night’s sleep. And it was close to the bus lines so transportation in and out of Durham was easy."
