Your Scenic Stop on the A688

Trade the traffic of Tindale Crescent for the tranquil countryside surroundings by the pond of The Mill Kitchen Restaurant.

Conveniently located just off the A688 and a stone's throw from the A68, we are the ideal destination for those travelling between Barnard Castle and Durham City—or those journeying further afield, whether heading south from Scotland or North from Yorkshire and the "smoke" of London. Whether you're in a car, caravan, or motorhome, our farm offers a peaceful escape with plenty of easy-access parking in the heart of County Durham.

Relax in our stunning oak-framed dining room where freshly roasted local coffee meets floor-to-ceiling views of the pond wildlife, or enjoy the fresh country air on our lakeside terrace.

What Our Guests Say

"January 2026. Drove from Durham City for the afternoon with the wife. Wifey chose the Nacho Style Loaded Chunky Chips she said "better than what she had in Mexico" I had Blue Cheese & bacon Burger with the Laceys blue Cheese with the Proper chips and their homemade coleslaw. Absolute best burger I have had, you can taste the difference from places that call themselves Burger restaurants! The service was fantastic too, We will be back and worth the drive from Durham"

— Paul T
