Beautiful getaway

The tower is decorated lovely, it's comfortable, homely and immaculately clean with everything we needed in the kitchen. Set away from any main road it's perfect for quiet down time surrounded by fields. It's perfectly situated for visiting lots of beaches nearby and a short drive to Durham and the famous Seaham Hall beach for collecting sea glass.

Lovely Hideaway Stay

The folly is quirky, cosy, peaceful, beautifully kept and so clean. It's really comfortable and the views are delightful. Perfect location for exploring Durham and the surrounds, with the coastal footpath close by. Highly recommend.

Incredible stay; beautiful views and stunning property.

We loved our stay here. The folly is amazing, so warm and cosy. We’re definitely coming back in the summer to enjoy the beaches more but a winter stay was just as enjoyable. Thank you so much, Liam, Jodi and Otis.

Fabulous place

We had a lovely stay even though the weather was stormy. The folly is beautiful and had everything we needed. The host has put heating on for our arrival and also helped us to find it in the dark which was much appreciated. The views from the property are amazing. Seaview and horses outside. We felt really comfortable and cozy and we'll definitely be back.

Folly good fun!

Such a lovely place, in the centre of fields with horses grazing peacefully around making the setting perfect! 10 mins on foot to the beach (to go sea glass hunting) and 10 mins in the car to Morrisons. The beach is pebble and it has a steep incline so if (like me) you suffer with bad knees, you need to take care but it can be done. I have a tween and a teen and they loved the setting enough to put their phones down and enjoy family time 😊 Durham Castle & Cathedral are also well worth the visit. Will definitely be back as there’s more to see and we ran out of time 👍
