We wanted an autumn break base to visit Durham for the Luminere. The Stables was well situated for this and for exploring Bishop Auckland only a few miles away. The apartment was warm and comfortable with the best bed of any holiday let l've stayed in! Bishop Auckland has plenty of eateries. Our favourite cafes were Fifteas and Breaking Bread. All the galleries in the Auckland project are worth a visit. Very varied, well presented and not too big! I would certainly recommend the Stables to anyone that can manage the spiral staircase.

We loved our stay! The location is perfect, right next to the main road, making it a convenient stop on our journey from York to Edinburgh. It was also an ideal spot for visiting Durham Cathedral the next morning. The staff was very friendly and accommodating, and we appreciated the Costa coffee and meal options available on-site. Additionally, there’s a McDonald's and other food options right next to the hotel, as it's part of a service area. The room was excellent for the price—newly renovated and modern. Overall, a great stay!

Close to Durham City centre and all the outskirts retail parks. Rooms were clean, well maintained and quiet. Good shower and Elemis shampoo, conditioner, shower gel and hand wash provided in dispensers. Spa in the next building was a bonus. The £25 Spa Day Pass is discounted to £10 per stay per guest if purchased at the Hotel Reception. Facilities include pool, sauna, steam, jacuzzi and changing rooms equipped with lockers, great showers and swimsuit wringers and ‘proper’ hairdryers.

Very welcoming at reception, found room to be clean, spacious and double bed very comfortable. Main road runs past our room and we didn't have any noise disturbance and had a great nights sleep. I enjoy leaving the car at home and this hotel is on a bus route between Durham and Bishop Auckland. The X21 bus goes through Durham to Chester le Street and Newcastle. Would have liked to dine at the adjoining Indian Restaurant but didn't get the opportunity on this occasion.

Adele and Geoff are the perfect hosts, having restored, renovated and enhanced this impressive 19th century manor house. A perfect base for visits to Durham and the heritage North East Coast. We had an enormous ensuite room with a magnificent sea view. Adele even suggested places of interest for our journey home. We would have no hesitation in recommending the White House Hotel.

The Avenue was easy to find and the staff were great. Unfortunately we were too late for an evening meal but the breakfast was really good. There was a good quality tea and coffee selection in the room with biscuits. The room size was ok with twin beds. We were visiting Durham and the location was great, with the buses running past the hotel.

Cosy house in a very quiet location with the perfect silence for the best sleep. The room had a fridge with butter and marmalade prepared for breakfast, and plenty of space for your drinks. Generous amount of towels offered. Martin, the owner, is very friendly and helpful. Less than 10 minutes drive to Durham centre.

Perfect location for where we wished to visit, warm and comfortable, lovely host Maxine who greeted us on arrival, and much appreciated welcome pack. Enjoyed the little patio/garden. Park and ride brilliant for centre of Durham just five minutes from apartment. Don't forget to visit Hall Hill Farm.

A rainy day as we approached and we were a little apprehensive as the pub/hotel looked a little remote. However, the staff were excellent, very welcoming and friendly. The food was superb, good portion sizes as well. Great location for visiting Durham as well as a short distance from Newcastle

The location is fantastic, also the staff were very accommodating, responsive, & lovely people. As you wander around Durham, you realize how convenient it really is. Also the check out time let me spend another hour wandering about town which was a great morning surprise.

Anna was so helpful and friendly. The service and attention was excellent. Rooms spotless and comfortable. Breakfast plentiful. Hotel grounds looked over Durham . The walk downhill to Durham Square took just 10- 15 minutes .We were a group of 9 and we had a fabulous time .

The hotel is beautiful and elegant. Everything is very clean. The cooked breakfast was quite nice. The hotel is located up a hill from the town center and overlooks a beautiful wild area toward the river. Be sure to take a walk along the river if you stay in Durham.

Lovely host, lots of little extras, comfortable spacious apartment right in the heart of Durham. Nice not to have to worry about the basics - tea, coffee, milk and the flowers on arrival were lovely. Very well equipped and clean and loved the slipper bath

Very nice little hotel. I was in Durham for my daughter's graduation and this hotel was a block away from her accommodations. Breakfast was fantastic, room was exactly as described, and staff was super friendly. Would definitely stay again.

We stayed in Plawsworth for my daughter’s graduation which is just a short drive away. And it’s easy to drive into Durham City Centre. The scenery was just so beautiful. The apartment is spacious and comfortable, and had everything we needed.

The staff were all very friendly, professional and helpful. Food, both dinner and breakfast was very good, lots of choices. Position was great for travelling into Durham by buss, bus stop just outside hotel and they were very frequent.

Spacious king room, somewhat dated but functional, on the annexed side of the Hotel. Excellent bed and pillows for a restful sleep. Prime location just minutes away from Durham Cathedral and Castle, restaurants and cafes.

Excellent apartment set in such a beautiful location right in the centre of Durham. The apartment itself was clean, modern and full of personal touches. I would definitely stay here again!
