Bed and breakfast holiday rentals in County Durham

Great place to stay if you’re doing the C2C cycle. The Cross Keys pub is a good 10-minute walk (downhill there, uphill on way back). Make sure to save some energy for the walk and book in advance as pub is quite small and v busy! Breakfast was great: help yourself and tonnes of cereal, toast and eggs. Sophie very kindly got some soya milk after I asked for a dairy free option. Sophie and Lizzie also kindly turned the heating on so the room was lovely and warm on arrival. Thanks for a great stay!

Great little cottage for a short stay. Angie was very helpful and friendly. Easy to find, very peaceful. Enclosed gravelled area to the back, perfect if you smoke or have a four legged friend. The pub next door was fantastic, service and food second to non, only downside is it didn't serve breakfast.

Super friendly hosts, great home-cooked food. Lovely room. Immaculately clean, great location for town and for sightseeing further afield.

Stayed here while I attended a wedding at Redworth Hall so it was a perfect location for that. The room was nice and spacious, lovely comfy bed and I opted for the £5 cooked breakfast in the morning which was a nice treat. Paul and Jasmine made me feel very welcome.

Great stopover whilst doing the C2C cycle. There is bike storage, a large and well equipped kitchen, comfy beds and clean bathroom. The local pub was not serving food so we went via the co-op in Stanhope to stock up on food. When we arrived at the airbnb there was fruit and breakfast ingredients - a great touch! Sophie was good at communicating and Lizzie was very welcoming - thank you!

Steve's place is a beautiful original farmhouse. The bathroom was tastefully renovated with a fantastic shower. He is very friendly, booked dinner for us, gave a fascinating rundown on his sheep-milk cheese production. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit!

Lovely stay. William was an excellent host, extremely helpful. Room was comfortable and clean.

The cafe of the Georgian Townhouse is one of my favorite places to go when I was studying in Durham. Jane and Robert are very welcoming hosts that made my family felt at home. The radiator didn’t heat up fast but Jane gave me an electric fan which helped a lot. The breakfast is amazing as usual (love the pancakes). Enjoyed our time very much during our stay. Hope to be back here again someday.

Comfy beds and very clean. The host was very welcoming, organised and helpful. We were in Durham for a University visit and although it was a little far from the campus it wasn’t a problem as the transport links are great and our host was kind enough to drop us off near the University. Would recommend.

Recommend and an amazing pancake breakfast including vegan the next day. Lovely friendly hosts
