The Shoes
16 Sunderland Road, Durham, DH1 2JT, United Kingdom – Great location - show map
As an American travelling in England for the first time, this is exactly what I imagined English buildings to be like; the building just oozed character. The pub downstairs was also what I imagine "real English" pubs were like and the regulars were friendly enough with an ignorant American bugging them and asking them questions.
The Shoes is located in Durham, just 14 miles from Stadium of Light and 16 miles from The Sage. The 3-star bed and breakfast is 12 miles from Beamish Museum. Northumbria University is 17 miles away and MetroCentre is 17 miles from the bed and breakfast. The accommodation is non-smoking. There is an on-site bar. Guests at the bed and breakfast will be able to enjoy activities in and around Durham, like cycling and fishing. Baltic Centre for Contemporary Art is 16 miles from The Shoes, while Theatre Royal is 17 miles from the property. The nearest airport is Newcastle International Airport, 24 miles from the accommodation.
Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 8.6 for a two-person trip.
