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.

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.

Stunning cottage/apartment set in the grounds of the English Heritage Finchale Abbey on the edge of the river Wear. After all the holiday maker go home it’s like a private country estate. The accommodation is so comfortable and enormous and the staff delightful and so friendly and helpful. There is nothing not to like really. perfect for country relaxation, yet close access to Durham.

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.

I was travelling with my son and had a two day stopover. The apartment was small but very comfortable . We had a sizeable parking space for our camper van, and a sunny sheltered patio. the surrounding area was new to us but good for cycling and dog walking. The owner was friendly and helpful. Durham was reached by a short bus journey.

The location was beautiful, it overlooks fields, is very quiet and a short drive to park and ride for Durham. We were upgraded to a modern newly built apartment that was very spacious and comfortable for a 5 night stay and were amazed at the scale of this property it being a combination of old renovated cottages and new builds.

Everything was great. The owners are lovely. Hospitality was amazing.I would highly recommend staying at the apartment if you want to visit the Bemish Museum, which was only a 12 minute drive, and it's only at 10-15 minutes' drive to the centre of Durham. Great local pub and mini Morrisons nearby.

5 of us stayed here for the second time after a family funerals in Durham. Staff couldn't have been nicer and looked after us well. Organised a table for us in the evening where we could sit with other family members who were not staying there. Hotel clean, comfortable and lovely breakfasts.

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.

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.
