About The Derwent Arms
Edmundbyers sits amid the rolling countryside of the Durham Dales, and The Derwent Arms occupies a quiet spot in this village near Consett, with open moorland and walking routes on the doorstep. It makes a natural base for anyone wanting to explore the dale on foot or by bike before returning to a proper pub atmosphere in the evening.
The hotel has seven rooms, straightforward and comfortable, with breakfast included and drinks available in-room. Downstairs there's a restaurant and bar serving as the heart of the place, along with a garden for warmer days. Free WiFi, luggage storage and free on-site parking cover the practical side, while family rooms and pet-friendly policies make it workable for those travelling with children or dogs.
Beyond the front door, the surrounding area is well suited to cycling and walking, and further pubs, restaurants and entertainment can be found nearby for those wanting more choice than the house bar and dining room. It's a simple, countryside-based stay rather than a luxury one, geared towards guests who want the Durham Dales on their doorstep.
Diners like this pub's delicious and hearty food, including crispy fish and chips and perfectly cooked steak, with generous portions. They also highlight the warm, friendly atmosphere, attentive staff, and good value.
Some reviews mention menu items can be unavailable.
