Great to travel around Durham
Very nice house and great hosting. The location is very convenient if you plan to travel around and visit other places. There's not many restaurants nearby if you plan to go out for a meal, apart from a few takeaway places.

About the host

Hosted by Pauline

Host profile image
Pauline - (written by Bill) is the business end of the partnership. Dr P, as she is known in certain circles, has left the health service but now works even harder than before. When she isn't running her shop she can be found organising rental properties, up-cycling furniture, knitting, sewing, glass painting and constantly cleaning - anything that's dirty! She never switches on the TV, leaving me at least one daily task to carry out.

Bill - we're both from Billy Elliot country, well, that's where they shot a good part of the movie, in Easington Colliery, County Durham UK. Our favourite destinations include Scotland and the Greek Islands. I also like Japan. Other things you don't really need to know about me, I could be thinner but lack will power, I could be younger but was born a bit too early to qualify.
