Short break in Durham
Well presented house only a 15-20min walk from the centre of Durham. Decoration/carpets were nice and fresh, and the kitchen was very clean and came with all you'd need to cook at home. Lounge was comfy to watch TV in, so felt like home. Little supermarket really close by, together with some takeaway options. We would stay again.
