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.

Helpful staff, good hotel, great evening meal
Stayed 1 night and ate evening meal here. Postive points: - - Helpful and friendly staff - Good shower - Bed on the firm side but not uncomfortable - Evening meal was very good; we ate beef and ale pie (homemade and tasty) and seafood linguine (tasty with good quantity of shellfish). Both dishes were a good size. - Breakfast: cooked fresh, good sausage. Cereals available. Less positive points (but not 'bad'): - - the room radiator was not working correctly but the manager quickly sorted it out - breakfast range of youghurts and fresher options was quite limited; coffee was from a machine and a bit of the weak side.

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!!

Friendly staff and very good breakfast included. Convenient location for lots of things nearby but location of hotel is by itself in the countryside so not within walking distance of anything. I would recommend as it was good value for money

Absolutely fantastic, lovely room, toiletries provided and plenty tea/coffee/hot chocolate. Bar staff offer fantastic service - bringing drinks to the tables outside. Lovely views over countryside from verandha with glass panels to shelter any wind. Breakfasts, huge portions, top quality and excellent choices. Very good menu, food served all day, good value. Excellent location for Kynren production. Only issue restaurant not hoovered until after breakfast so floor had crumbs of food under and around table from evening before.
