The room was beautifully decorated with artistic flair and a small garden. The location on the hillside, next to a church, made it quite quiet. Breakfast was good, with a choice of English or smoked salmon. The train station and cathedral are both a 10-minute walk away. Cleanliness was acceptable, but the soundproofing was poor.

Absolutely outstanding guest house - I was really impressed from the moment I arrived. The room was enormous and very comfortable, with everything I needed. It was the perfect temperature and almost unnervingly quiet and peaceful. The bed was very comfortable and everything was spotless. Breakfast was great, and the owners were very accommodating.

Nice property. Clean and very close to all things in central Durham. Plenty of good places to eat nearby. Breakfast was good, but fairly basic.

My daughter and I greatly enjoyed our stay at the Castle View Guest House this past June, 2024. It's location is as close as you can get to the University and the Cathedral, shops, and dining. Room was very comfortable - breakfast was good with ample portions for my daughter and I. We only stayed one night as we were heading north to Northumberland for the bulk of our vacation but will return and stay longer. The only "nit" - not the fault of the proprietors - is parking - not unexpected due to the close proximity to the town center. As a yank driving - backing up to park in the tight and very infrequently available parking spaces across the street from the Guest House was challenging. It took me about an hour circling the block for an end of row spot to open that I could easily get my car into. A tip - at least what I did - was buy 24 hours parking from the conveniently located pay station rather than use the 3 hour pass provided by the guest house - 18 pounds - well worth it as no hassle or worries from the ever present parking enforcement officers.

Nice small B&B just across the river from Durham Cathedral and Castle. Charming building (a little hard to find - best thing is navigate to St Margaret of Antioch Church which is right next door) with modern updating inside. Quiet street. Superbly prepared individual breakfast.

Castle View ticked all the right boxes. Very comfortable beds. The big cushions on top were great to rest on after a long day out and about. Modern, clean bathrooms. Very quiet. Superb location between the station and the city centre. Decent breakfast to cap it off
