The Village Inn

Great value for money and...

Liked: Great location for us as we were attending a wedding at a venue near by. Short drive to the coast, Seaham is lovely little seaside town with pretty harbour. About 20mins in to Durham City itself. Rooms were clean and comfortable with fresh towels, hand soap and shower gel in room. Wall mounted smart TV too . Staff were so friendly as were the locals in the pub…all ages and all just so welcoming…busy little place. No food served but they have lots of take away menus available and happy to have your food delivered there. We sampled the Chinese and were not disappointed! On the Friday night, they had a singer on and a game of bingo! We were up dancing with the locals and met friendly lady called Margaret who was there with her crowd. Various shops and larger supermarkets within 5minutes drive.
Disliked: Only recommendations would be perhaps a couple of wall hooks or towel rail in room to hang towels. The little reception type area could benefit from a table top fridge just to keep the sandwiches and snacks we bought cool. But no issues at all really.

Have stayed there twice now,...
