Exceptional hospitality. Staff were particularly friendly and attentive. Location suited us - not too far from Durham city centre, but particularly convenient for our visits to Beamish and Tanfield Railway. Room was clean and well-appointed. Food was amazing! Superb breakfast with good choice. Dinner menu was unbelievable (not available on Sunday evening. Highly recommended.

We have stayed before and were really pleased that this stay was just as good. We couldn't fault anything, from the well thought out comfy room to the great breakfast and really friendly and helpful owners and staff. The Royal Oak is seriously good value for money. We will be back!
