Although the pub food and warmth in both senses of the word was good, the accommodation was very basic and for ourselves aged nearly 80 and 90, very cold. The shower was reminiscent of the discontinued primitive category of youth hostel. Initially there was no hot water. A auxiliary electric heater helped. The hope would be that summer bookings would raise enough funds for some refurbishments enabling it to be more suitable for bookings all the year round.
Warm welcome. Dogs accepted. However, the outside chalet bedroom was REALLY cold/ damp smell - had to open the window. Pathetic electric shower. Was even cold in the pub. Horrible thudding music. Usually, the food is excellent though!
Stayed for a night in the family room whilst visiting Beamish museum about 9 miles away. Recently redecorated room, walk in shower and nice bathroom. Very clean, comfy beds, room had everything we needed. No food served Sunday evening but was told where we could eat in the area. A hearty breakfast was included in the price and was lovely with generous portions. Couldn't see a car park but plenty of parking outside the pub. A bit out of the way in terms of location, but very good value for money.
We went for a meal and it was well worth the money the portions are very big. food tastes delicious and was very well presented. You may have time to wait between courses but the wait is worth it. We were a table of 8 and having been before we were again xery happy with the service all staff very pleasant.
Superb value for money. Might describe it as cheap and cheerful or rough and ready. Warm welcome from Sonia. Decent breakfast. Nice atmosphere in bar and good pub grub. Friendly locals. You won't get a better deal for a weekend in Durham or Bishop Auckland. Dog friendly.
