My Way Guest House

Wow .. what a Gem ! An overnight stay needed before a uni offer day at Durham., I just wish we could have stayed longer. Clean, comfortable, everything you could possibly need and the views ! Hopefully the uni offer will be accepted and I can stay again for a while longer !

Lovely clean property with lots of space Good choice of continental breakfast in the morning

Must check that the kettle in the single room is connected to an extension lead, - not obvious. Bed is super comfy and a good size for a single room. Do it yourself breakfast has good variety and terrific views

Durham visit Clean, comfortable and lovely views. Room was a bit on the small side and lacking storage space. Lack of privacy due to room layout, but, curtain can be closed in full but this spoils outward view. Shared kitchen has everything you need and available throughout the day. The continental breakfast provided was adequate. Overall we had a lovely stay in nice surroundings but just a little bit pricey for what was on offer.

Nice gardens and view. Self service breakfast good, rooms are part of a house so noise/privacy is what you would expect if sharing a house. Public areas are very comfortable and generous. Shame that tea/coffee facilities are outside the room so you have to disturb others to have your early morning drink!

The room was spotless and nicely furnished with THE comfiest bed! The bathroom was large and there were copious fluffy white towels (but no bathrobes as described). The views were tremendous and it was really close to Durham. The lounge area was lovely and accessible all the time. But…the breakfast was self-service continental style and we (and the other couple staying) loaded and put on the dishwasher which we’ve never done in a B&B before! The bedroom is within a conservatory and it was sooo hot. On our final night we asked for a fan as we couldn’t get a breeze from the window as the conservatory door was closed at night. The fan made for a better night’s sleep and I would suggest that the rooms have one in there permanently. On the confirmation email it did say that guest rooms were not guaranteed noise free. Maybe a touch of an understatement! We could hear the man next door having a good old yawn and if we weren’t talking ourselves, we could hear their conversations. Eeeek. It was a lovely location but I did think it was expensive. We used our Christmas present BuyAGift ‘2 night luxury stay’ vouchers and as we stayed a 3rd night, we paid the difference which was £230! Ouch.
