The location was just what we were looking for, we didn't have time to use the spa facilities. Beautiful decoration in harmony with the building. The body care products were very welcome after a long day out, also a hairdryer. Very friendly staff and the breakfast was superb and plentiful. Everything piping hot and good quality produce. An ideal hotel for anyone planning to explore Yorkshire.

Loved Durham we have been before there’s plenty to see and do , plenty of lovely eateries and also some individual shops selling local crafts. We loved the old market which is still thriving unlike many towns these days there’s a lovely cafe in there too. We had a return visit to Beamish which us a place we love and the people are so friendly and helpful.

We stayed in Stanley due to the proximity to the Beamish open air museum just a short drive away. The bluebell inn, just a short walk from the Ball Alley, is a restruant within a pub, not a pub serving food. The food had a turkish theme and was wonderful. I will return if in the area again.

The Auckland Project and Bishops Palace was excellent and exceeded our expectations!

We were visiting family in Sunderland and mostly ate there.

We were visiting family in Sunderland and mostly ate there. We ate once - and would definitely go again - at The Half Moon pub which is about 5 minutes drive from the hotel. A very wide menu; plenty of food; lovely staff and warm and comfortable. There are a very few other venues but there is far more in Seaham itself or, of course, Sunderland. There is a lovely cafe called the North cafe on the coast just outside Seaham which is gorgeous though they need to fix the loo door locks! (We did tell them). The roads around Peterlee are new, wide and modern and it is easy to get around. Peterlee is essentially a village and we did not expect to make it our place for more than an overnight accommodation (or in our case 4 nights of a family visit). We are not a young couple and can only comment from the viewpoint of seasoned travellers in our mid-70s!
