The Devonport is an 18th century Freehouse, restaurant and rooms set on a village green at Middleton One Row, between Darlington and Yarm, overlooking unspoilt countryside on the banks of the River Tees. On site you'll find a dog friendly bar with an open fire, a beautifully furnished restaurant, a private dining room, and outside dining on the front terrace or rear courtyard. Accommodation comprises nine luxurious bedrooms and six newly renovated self-catering apartments, two of which are dog friendly. With good access to Teesside and Darlington, it makes a fantastic base for exploring the area, and Dinsdale station lies just 0.8 miles away, handy for onward travel without a car.
