We visited the newly refurbished restaurant earlier this week. The food was lovely. I had the salmon which came with a lovely dill sauce and my partner had a steak which was cooked exactly how he requested it, the pate for starter was really nice and the home made trifle a lovely end to the meal. We will be back.

We recently stayed for two nights at the Chiltern Country Pub & Hotel with a group of friends whilst attending a Dancing Event at the Rainton Meadows Arena. For a 2 star hotel, I would say that the facilities are more than adequate. It is in a quiet area, but not far from the main routes. We had a standard... More

Easy access from motorway but nothing else. Food average and rooms basic. If you like cricket, photos in reception area worth seeing. Entertainment- only repeditive CD of the 70's. Staff helpful and friendly.

We were all very disapointed with the quality of the food this time, especially as it was almost £15 for the 3 course meal. There seemed to be less choice this year so three of us opted... More

My husband and I stayed at the Chilton in April 2011 and I am about to return for another visit. We live in Australia and visit relatives who are all around the Durham area. When we arrived on our last visit, our initial room looked a bit small for a 10 day stay, so we pay a little extra for... More

Don't be fooled by the seemingly nice exterior of this place. You will leave puffy eyed, tired, wet headed and stressed. The reason for our over night stay at the Chilton was to have a nice meal, few glasses of wine with several friends and a room was cheaper than the the taxi ride home. Wish I had just drank... More
