Staff were all very friendly and helpful. The room was comfortable and I would definitely stay at Farnley Tower again. We ate in the restaurant and invited family members to join us. Although slightly pricey, the food was excellent and quite imaginative. |

A well placed hotel for visits to Durham. Easy, if hilly, walk into town of about 10 minutes. Friendly staff and excellent value for money. |
