It was very thoughtful to have items ready for breakfast. The rental had absolutely every comfort. From plenty of nice dishes, silverware, wine glasses and even a bottle of wine. The bathroom are spotless and up to date. I loved sitting outside on the deck or sitting on the couch watching people and boats go by. It is too bad I probably will not be back to Durham. We loved the area. It did not come across as a total tourist town. We had just finish walking the Coast 2 Coast walk and wanting to travel to Durham to see the sights before flying home.

I am ever so slightly sensitive to air fresheners, cologne, and perfumes. The upstairs had an air fresher in the hall. However I did not feel I needed to ask if I could unplug it. Again I am just ever so slightly sensitive.

The word immaculate is often over used - but not in this case. It would be hard to imagine a more desirable place to stay when visiting Durham. The apartment was spacious, pristine, tastefully furnished and ideally located, providing both peace and quiet and immediate access to all the sites in the centre of this historic city. Added to that were beautiful views of the river from the terrace, on-site parking, perfect hosts and a very generous welcome pack. What more could anyone ask?

Nothing I can think of.

The property was beautiful. Lovely furniture and furnishings. The riverside decked area was a real bonus. The location is fantastic, only a couple of minutes walk to the city centre. We were provided with a fantastic hamper of bread, croissants, eggs, coffee capsules, milk etc. sufficient for breakfast on all the days of our stay. Appreciated the supply of dressing gowns for a cosy night in. Owners were on hand for any questions we had and very accommodating with allowing us to leave our bags for an extra hour after check out. Definitely recommend this as a place to stay.

Chris and Wedy are the perfect hosts, they have simply applied all the lovely things and amenities they would like to have when travelling into their home. The result is a cosy imaculately clean home from home, after a day of exploring Durham and Newcastle it was a real pleasure to return home to the apartment and relax. Dont look anywhere else, this place is a gem.

Everything was perfect.

Everything in the apartment was top quality , the location was perfect . We loved the sitting out area over the river . All the extras were brilliant and really appreciated , the welcome pack , the gorgeous fluffy bathrobes. We had everything we needed , from dishwasher tablets to lovely toiletries. The apartment sparkled , it was so clean . The owners were really friendly with great communication throughout . A superb apartment !

Nothing !

This is an excellent apartment, very clean, well equipped with a very generous food hamper on arrival. Chris is welcoming and helpful. There is a lift to the private car park.The location is a few minutes from the town and sitting on the terrace watching the birds was lovely. I thoroughly recommend it if you are able-bodied.

If you have limited mobility, be aware that this apartment has two floors with bedrooms and bathrooms up a long flight of stairs, which was a major problem for us.This isn't in the description and it would be really helpful if it could be added to avoid the same problem for others.

A beautiful apartment in a fabulous location overlooking the river. Perfect for visiting the university or to use as a base for exploring further afield. Loved all of the little touches - the welcome hamper was a lovely surprise and we were glad of the free Netflix when the weather turned.

Everything was perfect.

Everything was well laid out and perfectly explained by Chris. The location to die for.

We arrived quite late so the wow moment came the next morning when we awoke. Opening the curtains and seeing the view of the river so close, coupled with the bridge and the old town on the other side of the river was magical.

Central location. Perfect for city centre but also at a prime riverside site. Lovely to sit on the terrace watching the rowers go by. Extremely welcoming hosts. Apartment decor beautiful throughout with every amenity you could wish for. Really useful welcome pack containing all the essentials.

Having to leave!!

Chris the host met us on arrival and gave us a quick tour of the property and instructions on how to use the facilities such as how to turn on the heating if required and he gave us a really good overview of how to navigate Durham, where to hire boats and recommended places to eat which was great . Thanks Chris :)

Nothing, even the weather was great!
