Fodor's Expert Review Georgian Town House

11 Crossgate, Durham, Durham, DH1 4PS, England

At the top of a cobbled street overlooking the cathedral and castle, this family-run guesthouse has small, snug bedrooms with pleasant city views. A recent renovation has given the place a kind of sophisticated dollhouse vibe, with floral-print wallpaper and deep pink and purple accents. The family rooms, which sleep up to five people, are a great value. The Pancake Café downstairs serves a short but delicious menu of sweet and savory pancakes.

PROS

  • great city center location
  • jovial owners
  • tasty pancakes right downstairs

CONS
