Swallow Three Tuns Hotel Durham New Elvet

As we retain an atmosphere of a bygone era and combine that with contemporary living you will find all the modern day amenities entwined with tasteful decor and a charming ambiance. All our ensuite rooms are spacious and have been filled with creativity, pleasing decor and comfortable beds laid with clean, fresh linen for a very good night's sleep. Enjoy a hearty breakfast in the morning as you set yourself up for the day ahead.

Since we are in the very heart of the city of Durham, we are within easy reach of the heritage sites, the college and some good shopping. Make your way through the medieval lanes and admire the Georgian and Victorian architecture as you get a taste of a bygone era. Take a look at the Cathedral which you will find enlightening, breathtaking and filled with historical treasures. The Castle is home to the College and set in beauty.

The only Oriental Museum in the UK resides here and gives you an insight in to life in the East - exhibits from Egypt, India, Tibet, China and Japan - enough to interest most visitors.

Close enough to visit Newcastle and if needs be have access to the airport.

Evenings with a relaxed drink and light snack are a nice way to end your day.
