This is a lovely hidden jewel in Durham. The gardens are magnificent, and neatly divided into different sections-​the Shakespeare garden, the moat pool area, the maze, and also two walled gardens. A yearly subscription is available, though this has become a little pricey in recent years as it doesn’t appear to include special events such as Christmas and Halloween. There are refreshments available, and it is highly recommended for a hot summer afternoon.
The hall itself is steeped in history and rumours of ghostly happenings.

Hidden away next to the banks of the River Wear, Crook Hall is a really beautiful place. It is a 13th century Grade I listed Medieval hall which also has really beautiful gardens, all of which are Olde English themed.
Rather than being a faceless old building, Crook Hall is also the family home of the Bell family, who still live here. They are really involved and this gives it a unique personal touch.
Crook Hall also does Civil Weddings and has metting rooms which can be hired out.
An ideal place to while away the long summer days in peace and tranquility
