Unbox at Poplar Tree, hotel in Durham

Boasting a garden and views of garden, Unbox at Poplar Tree is a recently renovated holiday home situated in Durham, 23 km from Beamish Museum.

These brand new lodges are excellent. Durham is a short(ish) walk away - 5 mins in a car. Great for looking around the university and/or relaxing with nature next to the river. I especially like the power shower, the views, the fresh flowers, fruit, wine touches. The overseer James is on hand and can’t do enough.
