About The Avenue Inn
Travellers wanting a simple base near Durham Cathedral, with no need to hunt for a parking space, will find The Avenue Inn a practical choice. With just five rooms, it operates on a small scale, which suits those after a quiet, no-fuss stay rather than a large hotel experience.
Guests have access to a restaurant and bar on site, along with breakfast each morning, so there's no need to head out for the first or last meal of the day. Free WiFi is also included, useful for anyone working while away or simply keeping in touch.
Free on-site parking is a genuine plus for anyone driving into Durham, where parking can otherwise be a headache. The location on Avenue Street gives convenient access to the cathedral and the city's other attractions, making it a sound option for a straightforward visit to Durham.
