Nothing. Was all amazing
5.0 / 5.0
It was beautifully furnished, very well equipped, in a great location - and with the most comfortable bedrooms you could wish for. All you could ask, for a very reasonable price - our group loved staying at Colliery Cottage and would definitely do so again. Nothing negative to say about it at all.
4.5 / 5.0
Colliery Cottage was like the Tardis... an unassuming 2 up 2 down terrace on the outside but when you step in - wow!
The whole property has been refurbished at some point to a very high standard and is beautifully presented throughout.
Everything you're likely to need is there... crockery, cutlery, cooking utensils, towels, hairdryer and even complimentary toiletries!
Parking was easy and convenient as the little street outside the row of cottages runs parallel to the road so the only people to use it are the residents.
There's a nice traditional pub serving food literally a 30 second walk away!
We would definitely recommend this cottage as a lovely, relaxing place to stay.
There's nothing we didn't like (well maybe the weather but that's not the proprietor's fault 😄)

Absolute 10/10. Amazing value for money, beautiful clean and dog friendly home. Comfortable beds with heavy duvets. HUGE smart TV in the living room. Snacks in the kitchen were a lovely touch. The host Clare is AMAZING! Available to contact any time, and even gave me a lift to the village to get some bits as I woke up with a horrible cold. The heating is on 3 times daily so it doesn't get cold which is great in this weather! Lovely location to take the dog.
Not sure if it was because he's never felt fake grass before, but my spaniel hopped the back wall looking for somewhere to pee and got a bit lost and scared me to death so keep an eye on your animals in the garden, but that's a me problem and nothing to do with the place. Can be awkward to get around if you don't drive as its a rural area! I should have researched that better, but was great to get away from city life and my spaniel absolutely loved it.

It was spotlessly clean and looked immaculate. There was a lovely goody bag full of treats which was a nice surprise. Great location with a lovely view of horses in a field. There was also a lovely pub just down the road serving good pub grub.
We didn’t like the check out time of 10am on a Sunday and the block capital notice telling you to be out by 10am put us on edge.

The cottage was lovely and very spacious! Everything you could possibly need was on hand and it was spotlessly clean. The host was very friendly and answered any queries we had. Parking was available right outside the property and there was an area at the back to be able to sit outside. The welcome pack was a really lovely addition too 😊
Only the weather!

It was just a perfect place to stay.
The house was spotless, the rooms, living room and dining room are decorated nicely. Easy to check in and the location was perfect too.
Only 15mins to centre of Durham and so many options to walk my dog around the house.
Nothing to complain

The Cottage was extremely clean and very comfortable. The Royal Oak pub is just a few doors away. The food is very good and reasonably priced.
Our host at the cottage (Clare) provided us with lots of information to make our stay even more enjoyable.
Nothing; we had an excellent stay at Colliery Cottage.

What a lovely place to stay. Clare made us feel very welcome in her lovely comfortable cottage. It's a spacious place with high quality fittings in a pleasant location close to an excellent, down to earth pub with great food.
There was nothing we didn't like.
4.0 / 5.0
We choose the property because it gives good access to the North Penines, Yorkshire Dales etc. We stayed here previously and returned partly because of the location and partly for the quality of the accomodation.
Smart TV would be a nice addition
5.0 / 5.0
A spacious house with all you need for a few nights stay.large comfy bed a blackout curtains made for a good night's sleep.a wood straight across the road for walking dogs.
The 2 sofas in the living room in my opinion weren't very big or comfy but that's probably because 4 people were using them

Upon arrival and meeting Clare our host, we couldn’t have asked for anything more. Very welcoming , beautifully furnished and spotlessly clean home with everything you could possibly need for your stay. Cottage is situated in a very quiet small terrace location with an outstanding village pub on the end, which serves delicious home cooked food and better still a “lovely friendly welcome “. If we’d have had any issues ( which we didn’t ) then Clare was always available and on hand living locally.
We honestly didn’t have ANY complaints/ issues at all.
Perfect in every way.

This place was beautifully and conveniently situated, value for money, exceptionally clean, and just a fantastic homely stay.
The owner was a lovely lady who was close by if needed, she was very welcoming even left little treats for our stay. The accommodation had everything we needed including a washing machine and a line in the back yard. Kitchen was fantastic, not that we used it much as there was a great little pub about 8 doors down. Beds were comfy and clean and the shower was great. Comfy lounge room, plenty of space all over the house. Across the road is a playground and a beautiful wooded area for walks. Parking was available outside for no extra charge. A very safe and very quiet area at night, which was great for sleeping. Shops a couple of minutes drive away. This was one of our best accommodations on our month long trip. Very close to everything touristy but away from the hustle and bustle. We would definitely travel from Australia to stay at this property again, but for longer. Do yourself a favour and stay here and explore the surrounding area, you will not be disappointed in the accommodation or the area.
There was not a single thing to fault in this property it was definitely 10 out of 10.

For us, location was great. Close to Durham but in lovely countryside. Pretty good pub was only 50mtrs away.
Not great if you want to eat somewhere other than the pub (and have a drink)

Lovely property, very clean. It had everything we needed for a family stay. Good local pub which serves excellent food. Bus stop right outside into Durham centre (although not a frequent timetable).
5.0 / 5.0
Excellent base to explore Durham. We were given great information by Clare on the best local places to park, where to eat, where to visit. Everything was spot on. Ask a local and we were so pleased we did. Property was spacious and imaculately clean. We were so grateful to find milk in the fridge and other goodies on arrival. It was like coming home from holiday and a family member leaving essentials for us, so 10/10 for thoughtfulness! When we come back to the area, this will be the first place we look for.
