The wine cooler in the kitchen is the giveaway that Old Bank House operates on a different scale from the average holiday let. This Grade II listed townhouse in Durham sleeps eight across four bedrooms and three bathrooms, with the kind of finishing that suggests the owners have thought through what makes a stay comfortable rather than merely adequate. Two of the bedrooms have their own en-suite showers, and the main bathroom adds a proper bath with shower. Heating, electricity, bed linen, towels and wifi are all covered.
The ground floor holds a living room and the kitchen-diner, separated by Crittall-style glazed doors. The kitchen comes equipped for cooking, with an electric oven and hob, dishwasher, combi microwave and coffee machine. Upstairs, the four bedrooms include a super kingsize, a zip-and-link that can be split into singles, a kingsize and a double, each with a Smart TV. Guests arrive after 4pm and leave by 10am. Smoking is not permitted.
On-road parking is available, and a pub lies within walking distance. The Bengal Merchant restaurant is nearby if cooking holds no appeal.
