Clinical Week One: Progress House Hotels near the venue include: Premier Inn Darlington Morton Park Way, Darlington, DL1 4PJ Tel: 0871 527 8286 Premier Inn at Preston Farm Yarm Road, Stockton-on-Tees, TS18 3RT Tel: 0871 527 9046 There are also numerous bed and breakfasts in the area. Clinical Week 2: County Durham & Darlington Fire & Rescue Service Training School Bowburn The close proximity to Durham means that there are numerous hotel / B&B options. We can secure a reduced rate at Bowburn Hall Hotel; upon booking, mention it is for a course with the Great North Air Ambulance Service, and this should suffice for the lower rate per night.   There is a ‘Days Inn’ hotel approx ½ mile from the training centre, located at the services just off the A1. Durham has a range of options, including 3 Premier Inns.  There are also numerous bed and breakfasts in the area. We will also be holding the course night out this week in Durham so somewhere close to Durham would be advisable if you're wishing to attend.
