The room was clean and comfortable. The food was very good also.
The fixtures and fittings are a little dated and past their best and the staff have varying levels of service.
Really great find. Excellent food and a great bar. Staff were just brilliant, Charlotte especially. Wonderful, very quiet and well appointed. Just great to sit in the main room with a book and admire the view. We did the taxi to Durham Cathedral just to complete our day.
Great service, very friendly staff, shout our ===

Staff polite, friendly and knowledgeable about the area, big shout out to Joanne who I requested a couple of extra things on top of our stay, {flowers and an extra night} very professional and made our stay extra special
Lovely location and very friendly staff. WiFi doesn’t work at all in the upper reaches of the Manor House. Room Carpet was filthy with stains in several places.

Lovely surroundings. Our room was cozy. Nicely decorated but carpet could have benefited from a shampoo. En suite very small. Shower small if you are not very thin!
Window seat only sitting option which was ok if not closing curtains
Lovely food in the evening.
Breakfast average and not great selection for continental.
All in all though we would definitely return but would book larger room
The property location is great, and the staff are very helpful and friendly. However , there was a noise from the hot water system (possibly)which switched on and off throughout the night. It made for a very disturbed sleep. The dining room was cold because the roof vents could not be closed. A shame because it could be great, and the staff are a delight
Very convenient location for Durham, clean friendly, efficient service, comfortable room and bathroom. I'll be back!

We asked for a twin room but got a double instead, staff were friendly and helpful to resolve this. Hotel was generaĺly very tired and the mattress was really uncomfortable.
Last minute booking due us n3eding tongo and viait family after a sudden unexpected family passing all the stagf where nothing but kind and polite and when we needed to extend our stay it was no issue at all for them to help us we opted to have the breakfast and im so glad we did aswell as the full english and continental option the also had things like omelettes, avocado on toast and the most delicious eggs florentine. The manor is stunning as is the grounds and i enjoyed googling the history!
It’s a lovely hotel and very convenient stop. The staff were super friendly and helpful.
We only had breakfast but it was delicious and plenty of it. The decor was lovely but needed a bit of tidying and the vase on the table needed a clean. I’m not keen on fake flowers which gather dust and the winter sun shows the glass vase needing a polish.
I’m being picky hoping I’m being helpful. It was a fab stay and I thoroughly recommend it and would stay again.
Very comfortable room, good food and helpful efficient staff. No Earl Grey Tea available at breakfast.

Friendly staff, good food, just a bit haphazard in standards of service, eg cutlery available, no remote in room to operate TV, (item requested but never appeared).

Nice but lacking sound insulation
The hotel is beautiful and quiet. The rooms are well decorated. Unfortunately you really can hear everything that goes on in adjoining rooms. Our room was not cleaned during nor the bed made when we stayed which felt a bit sub optimal. The breakfast was very nice. I enjoyed being able to go for a run in the morning straight from the hotel.
