    It was very thoughtfully laid out. Extremely comfortable, everything we needed. Bonus of having outdoor seating area overlooking the river. The communication with the owner was brilliant.

    No ability to switch off bathroom lights which automatically come on and stay on when using loo in the middle of the night.

    The property was in good condition, clean, well equipped and in a good location.

    If you have limited mobility, be aware that this apartment has two floors with bedrooms and bathrooms up a long flight of stairs, which was a major problem for us.This isn't in the description and it would be really helpful if it could be added to avoid the same problem for others.

    This is an excellent apartment, very clean, well equipped with a very generous food hamper on arrival. Chris is welcoming and helpful. There is a lift to the private car park.The location is a few minutes from the town and sitting on the terrace watching the birds was lovely. I thoroughly recommend it if you are able-bodied.

    The location was incredibly central and convenient, yet at the sametime with the River view, it felt peaceful. Met by host in person who was very friendly and had left a very generous welcome package! Apartment was spotlessly clean with the most comfortable beds. Felt very luxurious!

    Was noisy on the weekend with the party boat and pubs/clubs over the river- no fault of the gorgeous property but not the quiet backwater location I imagined

    spotlessly clean and well furnished. lovely to have the outside seating by the river. Secure car parking a big bonus too.

    Absolutely nothing. The owners had provided everything we could possibly have wanted or needed.

    The apartment was clean, the owner (Chris) met us with the key and walked us through. The owners had kindly provided wine, milk, orange juice bread and everything we would need for breakfast and our stay so we did not have the awful problem of finding a supermarket late in the evening. The owners had modified the house with Covid in mind - fewer light switches and cleaning products. The house was really well presented and every detail was well considered. One of the nicest short stay homes we have stayed in. It was also perfectly located for Durham Cathedral and centre.
