Finchale Abbey, appartement situé au premier étage d'une ferme historique du XIe siècle.

Finchale is such a beautiful place, next to the priory ruins in a bend of the river Wear - amazing views across the river, or from the far bank to the priory. The big sitting room has views of the river on three sides, and is a really comfortable and relaxing room. There's a well-provided kitchen and generous modern bathroom (and separate WC). Bedrooms are very restful too - I would say the high sleeper in the third bedroom is best suited to the younger (under 50 at any rate) and/or more agile, but a great night's sleep once you get up there! There are steps between levels but my blind and nearly-90-year-old mother managed without difficulty, and also loved the place.The apartment is wonderfully warm and cosy, and you fall asleep to the sound of the river and occasional owls - such a treat. It was an amazing place to spend Christmas, and within easy reach of Durham where our daughter was singing at the Cathedral. Ann was a super welcoming and helpful host. We could not have been happier.

Lovely area, in the woods, close to the river, access to Durham just a short distance, very comfortable accommodation.

Family went from being worried about being 5 minutes out of town to fully enjoying listening to the river and watching the ducks. Out of the five places we stayed over a two weeks holiday, this is by far everyone's favorite. The floors are a little uneven and the mobile network connection not perfect but everything else you could imagine about the place was amazing.
