Getting there

By car

From the A1(M): Take Junction 62 and follow the signs to Durham City Centre along the A690. After crossing the River Wear, stay in the left-hand lane and turn left at the traffic lights. Then take the first immediate left to Framwellgate Waterside. The hotel is on the left. There is car parking for approximately 180 vehicles, with charges approximately £9 for overnight.

By train

The rail station is about 1.5 miles from the hotel. Details of train services may be obtained from National Rail Enquiries on 03457 484950, or you can visit their website for up-to-date timetables and bookings.

If you wish to pre-book a taxi, the hotel recommends Durham Taxis, telephone number 0191 371 2727. Durham Taxis is not associated with Saga; any contract is between you and them, and all queries about their service must be referred directly to them.

A taxi from the train/bus station should cost around £4-£5.
