Named ‘One of the Best Cities to Visit in 2020’, Durham is a beautiful and charming area within the North East. Known as the ‘perfect little city’, Durham has the best mix of everything and it all blends seamlessly. It retains its mediaeval heritage but it also has a modern and vibrant twist. It boasts lush green landscapes but it also has busy cobbled streets with independent shops, bars and restaurants.

Durham has plenty of history within its walls. One of the most spectacular historic sites is Durham Cathedral. Constructed between 1903 and 1133, this towering building is a shining example of Norman architecture. The cathedral is now the oldest surviving building with a stone vaulted ceiling of such a large scale.

Getting Around
The centre of Durham is a short 10-minute drive from Aidan Gardens.

Durham train station is 9-minute drive away so nearby towns and cities can easily be reached via rail. There’s also a taxi rank in close proximity to the train station.

There are plenty of bus routes throughout Durham. Hop on the Arriva 6 route to visit Barnard Castle or the number 22 which travels through Seaham and Sunderland.

It was a beautiful place. The beds are very comfy.<br/><br/>The bedrooms get very warm at night (even with a fan going) and there were a few things missing (hand soap, dishwashing tabs, remote for the fire etc.)

We had a lovely stay at these premises.<br/>Really great communications and instructions throughout.<br/>Description of the property was very accurate. <br/>Everything was very clean and tidy with lots of space.<br/>Very close to the park and ride into Durham or a great base for travel to the coast.<br/>Very quiet location despite being in a semi built up area.<br/>Highly recommend this location.<br/>Thank you,<br/>C and M.

We enjoyed our stay. It was clean and comfortable and a great location for us. Check in / out was also very simple. <br/>It would be helpful for some manuals / instructions to be left for the appliances around the house.<br/>I also think it is a bit much to ask for a non refundable £25 damage deposit before a key code would be issued. I’ve never come across this on Air BnB before and it seems like an easy way to get an extra bit of money off guests. The alternative was a £250 refundable deposit minus £15 admin fee! So either way extra money is made off of the person booking the property in addition to the cost per night.

Aidan Gardens is a very comfortable home with many amenities. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful home. Our contact person, Charlie, was very responsive, made us feel welcome, and immediately responded to questions. The location of this house was ideal for us, with only a 3 minute walk to our family's home.

A lovely house with everything well catered for. Very spacious in a convenient location. There is only space for one car on the drive but there is space for another in the close. Beds are double, rather than king as per description, otherwise it was perfect and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend!

Property was lovely-clean and tidy. Comfy beds. <br/>Hand towels in bathrooms would be good and a bin in the top floor bathroom. <br/>Outside of property could do with a tidy up- weeds/leaves on patio. And leaves on terrace from lounge could have been tidied prior to our arrival.

Marie

Excellent house, clean and spacious. Great host, and recommendations to where to eat. <br/>Uber £10 to city centre, not really walking distance, so that was easy. <br/>Would highly recommend as it’s not easy to find places with parking, so this ticked a lot of boxes. Would stay again.

The location is convenient<br/><br/>The service is awful. There are items damage and some electrical appliances out of order when getting into the house. I reported immediately and asked for fixing. The maintenance team committed to get them fixed the next day, but they only show up on my check out day. If you don't check carefully everything, you may have to bear the responsibility of those faulty items which are already existed before checking in.

Location very good for all main attractions,parking on site a real bonus.Modern home with attractive decor,immaculately clean.<br/><br/>One small issue raised by email with hosts was not replied to.

Ian

on first arrival it looked amazing -immaculately clean, beautifully furnished but we had a serious problem which will probably only affect a small number of people -there was not, as stated, a dedicated workspace. We had checked this before booking & was assured that although there were no photos this did exist. We think what they referred to was a dressing room -it had a very narrow bench with a huge mirror with huge lights - not at all suitable for working. There was a small stool - you couldn't possibly sit on this to work. we had to carry upstairs a dinning room chair! This was reported along with bin outside overflowing, shortage of wine glasses & small plates, only 1 bulb out of 3 worked in dining area - sadly nothing was done about anything. Add to that the fuses blew if you used the toaster, iron so marked you couldn't use.

Beautiful, very comfortable well equipped & clean property . Quiet location close to Durham attractions.<br/><br/>Host and Stay seems very controlling company. We received about 10 messages & emails during 2 nights stay. It really put us off. We definitely won't be booking with Host & Stay again. We had not even started enjoying our stay yet when received reminder already what we have to do before checking out ( including taking all bin bags outside although we paid a lot for 2 nights stay).

Pasqualle

Mooi huisje, <br/>Alleen niet king size bedden. Het waren twijfelaars. Te klein om te delen met vrienden. Van te voren was er geen goede communicatie over de bedden mogelijkheden. (Of ze uit elkaar geschoven konden worden) vervolgens beddengoed voor de bank gevraagd en dat zelf moeten kopen omdat er niets geregeld werd
