The Old Colliery Stables

Fab and friendly with all amenties

Quiet comfy and not far out

Easy to find, easy to park. Good price.

Smell from the bathroom drains, was not masked by the air freshener.

Walls between the properties are a little thin so you can hear a little more. Also the TV although connected to channels kept buffering

Low cost, the room was clean and warm, the owner (pub landlady) was very friendly and the quality of the food in the pub was good both in the evening and breakfast (full) £85 for 3 starters and 2 main meals, with 7 pints & a tonic, and £14 for 2 cooked breakfasts. Room suitable for a couple and NON reactive small dogs, great woodland walk opposite even in the rain!

Didn't know how to collect the keys, text and called the number provided on the booking, went into the pub in the end but it wasn't clear the accommodation was run by the pub. We were in the middle of a block of 3 on suite rooms (twin), with 2 dogs. The walls are paper thin, could hear TV one-side until 1am and word for word the conversation of the couple staying there, followed by the snoring most of the night when the TV eventually was switched off, and could also hear the conversation on the 2nd night in the other room, VERY noisy heating pipes banging until the early hours when the heating went on or off. We stayed for 2 nights to visit Durham but unfortunately didn't get much sleep.
