Toast Stays - East Farm Cottage

A stunning 3-bedroom cottage with hot tub, just minutes from Durham City. Ideal for families, friends or longer stays—close to local attractions, restaurants, and countryside escapes. Why not try out the rowing boats on the river and then enjoy a cold drink in the bars close by.

The enclosed garden is a real highlight – complete with a hot tub big enough for everyone and a selection of outdoor furniture, perfect for summer evenings and unwinding after a day exploring.

There’s ample off-street parking available, and we happily welcome up to two well-behaved pets (please note a £25 charge per pet, per stay).
Welcome to this charming and spacious cottage – the perfect base for your next getaway. With three lovely bedrooms, plenty of living space, and great access to transport links like the A1 and A167, it’s ideal for family holidays, short breaks or longer stays.

You’ll be spoilt for choice when it comes to food! Just a short stroll away are family favourites like KFC, Burger King, Domino’s, McDonald’s, Subway and Greggs – sure to keep both kids and grown-ups happy. Coffee lovers can grab their favourite brew from Costa or Starbucks nearby, and if you’re feeling active, there’s even a gym close at hand.

The cottage is perfectly placed for exploring Durham’s top attractions, including the stunning Cathedral and Castle, the peaceful Botanical Gardens, and the riverside where you can hire rowing boats and then unwind at one of the local bars. For family fun or rainy day entertainment, Lane 7 bowling alley and the Odeon Luxe Cinema are popular picks among our guests, as are the many bars and restaurants in the city.

Just a mile or so away, Spennymoor offers four supermarkets, a leisure centre with a swimming pool, plus pubs and dining spots to explore. Or if you’re after a quieter evening, the Pub and Kitchen in nearby Cassop is a great-value local favourite – ideal for a relaxing meal away from the city bustle.

We happily welcome up to two well-behaved pets (please note a £25 charge per pet, per stay).
