We went to this restaurant on April 27 with Groupon which was steak with chips,mushrooms, onion rings and a glass of wine. We asked for the steaks to be 'well done' and the other 'medium to well done'. When the food arrived the steaks were both bloody, there was literally two tiny mushrooms each and two onion rings. The waitress... More

Dear Customer, Thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback. I’m very sorry you were disappointed with the Living Social deal you purchased to eat in our restaurant. I feel there are a few inaccuracies concerning your experience and would like to put forward our side of the story. Our waitress assures me she was very apologetic when... More

After looking on the Durham website (http://www.thisisdurham.com/) we found The Lambton Hounds Inn for a Sunday roast. Thoroughly enjoyed the meal, well above the average, real gravy as well. The young lady who served us made us feel quite special and was intentive to our needs, 10/10. Ok the place is a little tired but this is over shadowed by... More

Had a good search around on the web for cheap and cheerful accomodation for one night in the County Durham or North Yorkshire area and most places were roughly between £60-£70 and upwards but then came across The Lambton Arms very close to Durham City and it was a bargain at £40 for the room including breakfast for 2,altogether £20...

We were booked in for two nights for a wedding in the area and were pleased to find that the room was sizeable, comfortable and clean with tea making facilities available. Breakfast was included and was excellent - cereal, toast, full english, tea, juice and so on. The decor was certainly a little outdated and the rroms need a little... More

This Pub is what it says on its web site, a traditional English pub with bed and breakfast accommodation. I found the room to be clean with plenty of storage space. The room did look a little tired and the bed could do with a new mattress but for a long week end it was good value for money. The... More

We really enjoyed our stay at the Lambton Hounds. We received a warm and cheerful greeting from the owner when we checked in who then showed us to our room. Not the most modern room, a little rough around the edges but comfortable and cosy. The don't advertise as having all the mod cons so we weren't expecting any, although... More
