The Morritt

Located in: Teesdale, Durham

Company Description

The Morritt is a country hotel with wonderful restaurant that is the venue of choice for weddings and conferences in Teesdale, County Durham. The present Morritt dates back to the late 17th Century when there was a farm on the site. Some of the farm outbuildings were used as such until this century when they were converted into the hotel and surrounding buildings. Through the 17th Century and the rise of the mail coach, Greta Bridge became the second overnight stop for the London- Carlisle coach. There were three inns in Greta Bridge, which included The George, on the bridge on the other side of the river and the New Inn, which is now Thorpe Farm, so one can imagine there was considerable coach traffic to support three hostelries.
