My go-to hotel in the North East
I use The Three Horseshoes ever time I am in the North East on business. Very friendly staff, clean and comfortable rooms and lovely food. The restaurant can get busy which is testament to the quality of the food and beer.

There is not much around the property specifically but it is ideal for access to Durham and a cosy alternative to central chain hotels. Great, home cooked food and friendly staff at good value. Good sized room with great shower. Free parking a bonus. Bar gets quiet early though!!
