Worst Homemade Chips I have ever tasted. Soggy, overcooked, tasted like they were warmed up from yesterdays leftovers. Louisiana Pork Burger bland, dry and tasteless, just chucked into a dry bun. Took ages to arrive. Won’t be going back that’s for sure. Very disappointed.

The Saxon Inn is set in a lovely quiet location. It is perfectly situated to visited lots of places of interest. The staff are lovely, so helpful and friendly. The rooms are beautifully furnished and spotlessly clean. It is really great value for money as well. I would highly recommend The Saxon Inn.

Quiet location opposite a lovely saxon church. Rooms were spacious, modern clean and well appointed. Really central for visiting places of interest in County Durham.We had a problem with our door lock and within a few minutes it was fixed. Breakfast was ordered the night before selecting from a menu sheet and selecting the time you would like to eat. Next morning in the sunny Breakfast room you had a warm welcome from Shaun and your hot beverages and hot food and drinks were bought to your table for the time you selected. A good assortment of cereals, juices, spreads, yoghurts and fruit also available as you entered.We also had an evening meal which was lovely.Thanks to Claire the Manager, Julie and Shaun for a great stay! All the other staff were great also but didn't get there names.

Lovely area with nice walks of the river and huge lake lots of wildlife.Standard room had every facility needed.Bed comfy but was just a normal double size could have done with at least a king size. Nice quiet area. Staff friendly and helpful. Large portions For meals if eating in the huge restaurant.Whole pub/rooms were extremely clean and looked freshly decorated. Would definitely stay again if we were in the area but probably ask for a larger bed nextTime.

We stayed here as a stop over on our way to Scotland, we were allocated room 9, this had everything we could possibly need and more, the room was clean and modern, we had a great night sleep, it was very quiet and great value for money.

What can I say.....this place is amazing and the staff are unreal. So kind and friendly had a great laugh with them all. The food was fabulous breakfast to die for especially after a heavy night on the beer. The room was lovely and clean nice and modern. I can't say enough good things about the Saxon Inn, next time I travel up north this will be where I'm staying. Thank you so much to all the staff

Great location for visiting Beamish, Durham, and Kynren. Comfortable, modern clean rooms with better quality furniture and facilities compared to most hotels of the same price. Staff are fantastic and Vicky was great! Had a great evening meal. Breakfast has plenty of choice ordered the night before. Has on-site parking.

Used for a two night stay to explore the beautiful area nearby. This is a very nice pub/hotel in a quiet location with the friendly staff demonstrating warm hospitality. Room was very comfortable, clean and with good facilities. Good food, especially the breakfast which was freshly cooked. Choice of beers was OK and so were the wines; conniesors may want wider choices but I'd ask them to consider the price of stay and location.
