This was a very nice comfortable place. We had a little trouble finding it. Was easy to check in and out of. The only suggestion I would make was to put the exterior patio lights on a timer so that they turn off at night— if it’s hot and you have the window open then you have all the light from the patio. But it was very clean and comfortable.

The lovely, quiet location of Brandon Village

The Hen House cottage was a great place to stay for our trip in the Durham area. The village of Brandon is a beautiful location for going for walks in the countryside and with a great pub/ restaurant called the Bay Horse Inn on 50m away it’s a perfect place to stay. The village is very close to the historic house, chapels and gardens of Ushaw and Brancepeth Castle, which are both excellent places to visit!! Would happily stay here again when visiting the area as it’s a perfect little hideaway!!

A very lovely place to stay while in Durham. Plenty of amenities. Good communication. Great location the pub. Just a few houses up. Had quite amazing food as well. If you're in town for a while, make sure you check out this great opportunity.

What a gem! We loved our stay in The Hen House, it was beautifully designed and very well equipped. The location was ideal for us, only short drive into Durham, and a very short walking distance to The Pub and Kitchen where we ate one night. We were able to park directly in front, and we enjoyed sitting on the bench outside the house to enjoy the sunshine. Brilliant!

Well equiped cottage close to Durham

Overnight stay and much cheaper than in Durham itself. Large unit with a washer/dryer which was extremely useful on a long trip. Good view from bedroom window, nice pub across the road. Friendly host. Would also have been good for a longer stay. Only suggestion would be a clearly visible name plate as it was hard to tell which house was which.

Lovely

The cottage is lovely and a very nice area to stay not far from Durham city. However, the cleanliness of the cottage could have been better we found there was rose petals and drinks bottles around and under the bed along with hair from previous people on the carpets. However, overall was lovely with private off street parking and the owner is lovely.

The loft

Was quite hard to find but after about 40 mins and a phone call to the owner we found it. A lot of renovation work being done to the property around the loft which we booked so was a little noisy. The loft which was a lovely place, milk and tea and coffee and biscuits left for us which was lovely. Lovely modern place. Bathroom was a little dirty. Bed was really comfortable. It could do with a lot of touch ups around the place but overall an okay stay.
