This stylish home offers you the perfect place to rest when exploring Durham and beyond. Ideal for either a family stay, a group of friends or three couples, it’s decorated beautifully in a modern luxe style, with snazzy little touches that make it feel opulent and chic. It’s also based within walking distance of the city centre, while still being in a quiet and peaceful location that makes it feel like your own little cocoon. You can head downstairs each morning and cook up a full English breakfast in your swanky kitchen, and tuck in at your smart dining set while you discuss the itinerary for the day. Take a short walk into Durham city centre to find historical spots, fascinating museums and worthwhile sights to see, as well as a plethora of cute cafes, fun bars and lush restaurants. Head home and pop a bottle of Prosecco to enjoy at the table, or cosy up around the fireplace with a cup of hot chocolate. As the evening rolls on, stretch out on the Chesterfield sofa and put a movie on the wall-mounted TV.
