Another fantastic stay. Tom's home was clean, tidy and we felt right at home. Will be booking next time we're in the area Thanks Tom

Peter was a great host who communicated very well. Very clear instructions on how to find the house, how to work heating and even how firm each mattress was! On arrival we noticed attachments for a baby gate which he came and fitted within 10 minutes of asking. The house was very spacious and well equipped. Beds and sofa's were very comfy. The homemade brownies left for us were unbelievable and a really nice treat! We would definitely stay again.

Great place, loads of local amneties, easy to find. We were happy with everything.

This was our first Airbnb experience and we have to say that the bar has been set very high. Our host Trevor was lovely, the area beautiful and interesting, and the accommodation excellent. There were plenty of great walks within an easy drive and it wasn’t overcrowded which made it all the more pleasant. Although the accommodation is great, it is worth being aware that the stairs to the bedroom may present challenges for some people, but if you think you can manage them, you will love this property. There are different options for heating, constant hot water and the kitchen has everything you need. The four legged neighbours are also friendly, if hungry; and my guide dog very much appreciated the lovely dog bed, fleecy blanket and flashing toy! Thank you so much Trevor, it would be lovely to be able to return in the future if we can manage it.

A delightful cottage that was spotlessly clean and wonderfully fresh, providing a peaceful setting in the countryside, yet only a 15-minute drive from Durham. We loved the charming, spacious cottage with its own private garden. The kitchen had everything we could possibly need, making our stay so easy. The welcome treats were a lovely touch - especially the amazing rocky road, and the fresh eggs and milk were much appreciated. Being on a working farm was brilliant, with fresh produce readily available, and the friendly ginger cat and chickens added real character. Jane, the host, was an absolute star with her excellent communication. We couldn't have asked for a better stay.

Ellen was a fantastic host. Made me and my children feel really welcome. The house was large & very clean, ellen was on hand to help if needed. Would highly recommend & will be sure to stay again next time im up. Thank you very much Ellen. From jamie and the kids

Great location and barn. Perfect for a multi generational family get together (including a dog). The barn was exactly as described and well kitted out. The outside space is private and safe - the barbecue and hot tub are of a great standard. Excellent food at the Rose and Crown (but you must book). Plenty of places too visit....we had a great walk with two young children round High Force. Sarah is responsive and not "in your face". As good an Airbnb as we have been to for our annual clan gathering.

The flat is exactly as described and very close to local amenities.

Thank you for such a lovely stay. Your place is lovely and spacious and we all felt at home. We would be happy to come again.

Fantastic location, will definitely be back again.

Fantastic airbnb, especially if you are attending a wedding at the nearby Middleton Lodge.

What a lovely little apartment for our short stay, perfectly situated on the high street we made the most of local cafes and restaurants for meals out, but the kitchen had all you would need if you wanted to self cater. The welcome packet of breast, cereal, brownies and milk was much appreciated after a long drive and meant we only needed to pop to the coop down the street to grab butter and mornings were sorted.

My partner and I had a great time staying at Debra’s place in Seaham! Exactly as described in the listing, the apartment was spotless and well presented, left us wanting for nothing. Debra was a great host, suggesting different local restaurants and points of interest. Ashoka Indian and The Lamp Room are both well worth a visit on the sea front. Thanks very much and hope to stay again soon!

A beautifully finished, comfortable home with absolutely everything you could possible need. The bathroom is gorgeous, lovely water pressure and very hot. The underfloor heating was very much enjoyed. Loved the downstairs loo floor too! Beds super comfortable and nice and nice quiet area. Perfect location for us to visit family.

The Nook is a beautiful flat to stay in. Very clean and cute, the host was very helpful and replied quickly. Loved the stay.
