Perfect location and fantastic property. ☺ Everything. Absolutely beautiful property and location could not be beaten. ☹ Some noise from bars at night and couldn’t work out how to lock the door to the terrace.

Stylish, comfortable and convenient. ☺ The location is excellent. The apartment is comfortable and stylish. ☹ The top shelves in the kitchen holding crockery and glasses would be inaccessible to shorter people. Could you provide a step? The ensuite is beautiful but a hook for dressing gown or bathrobe would be useful.

We just loved the property ☺ Very clean and we were provided with basic food and drink items for breakfast. It was our daughters graduation weekend and a bouquet of roses was on the kitchen table for her.

Gorgeous apartment, lovely hosts - will definitely book again! ☺ 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.

Perfect accommodation in every way ☺ Beautiful apartment with river terrace, spotlessly clean, furnished and equipped to the highest standard. Secure free parking and a very convenient location by Elvet Bridge. Highly recommended, we would stay again.

If I could paint a picture of the view from the 3 downstairs window it would hang it in my home. ☺ 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.

Simply Perfect. ☺ 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.

A Perfect Stay, superb location and a 10 star property. ☺ 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.
