Excellent place to stay with many amenities for extra comfort like bottled water, sleep mask, and toiletries. The breakfast was good and we also had dinner which was decent and affordable. We celebrated my teen's birthday and it was all perfect. Pretty quiet at night and the beds were super soft and comfy!

Sean is a great host! The accommodation is in a great location (you can literally see the trains stopping just at the back of the terrace, yet it’s super quiet, you can barely hear them, even with an open window). The room is nice, clean and tidy, the kitchen is fully equipped, the continental breakfast is varied, the check-in process was quick and straightforward. Highly recommended!

Pod was absolutely beautiful, exactly as it appeared online. As a disabled person, the access was very good, parking was nearby and inside the pod everything was easy to use. Shower was great. The 68 Cafe is just next door and is excellent. The number of regulars using the cafe show that it is very popular which is always a good sign.

The host very kindly left some fresh milk, butter, bread, jam and cereals which made a hugh difference to our stay so we didn't have to rush out the next morning. It was a lovely surprise.

Parts of Bishop Auckland are a little 'scruffy', quite a few empty shops in the town, although there are the usual supermarkets etc in the out-of-town shopping centres.
Auckland Castle and museums were very interesting. The guides in Auckland Castle were knowledgeable and very happy to show off everything there. The gardens will be stunning once they mature a little.

Bishop Auckland is undergoing great renovations.
Bishop Auckland is undergoing great renovations. Though the main street has some way to go, the Market Square and Bishops Palace area is really attractive. The Castle (Bishop's Palace), Mining Art Gallery and Spanish Gallery are full of interest, well worth the entry fee (book annual pass online for best value). The best thing was the friendliness of the people we met, both as knowledgeable guides in the attractions and welcoming locals in the pubs and restaurants.

Bishop Auckland is being regenerated.
Bishop Auckland is being regenerated. Around the market place is gorgeous. Auckland Castle is beautiful with a fabulous coffee shop. We went to the Kynren Festival. It was outstanding, like nothing we’ve seen before. Would highly recommend it.

B A is full of surprises.
B A is full of surprises. For the size of the town it has multiple sites of interest with the Bishop’s Palace/Castle steeped in history back to its origins with the Norman conquest nearly one thousand years ago, to a mining museum of local art from the recent past. The town is compact with easy parking, some nice eateries and still boasts easy access to the countryside walks within the Castle’s deer park. It also serves as an excellent base for exploring further afield. Durham, and it’s Cathedral, the Beamish museum, the Bowes museum at Barnard Castle, the nearby Raby Castle, a Roman Fort, Hadrians Wall, and the list goes on.

Location was very good - two minute walk to a massive supermarket and a ten minute walk to the castle and beautiful walks around the grounds. Twenty five minutes to Durham and very convenient for exploring the area. Nice to have all the kitchen essentials there, cleaning and basic salt and pepper and tea bags etc made it perfect for a short stay. Plenty of parking on the road outside the house. Easy and uncomplicated check in and great communication with the host. Would certainly recommend.
Nothing was too much trouble for our hosts who were very welcoming and friendly. The hotel, our room and the ensuite bathroom were very clean and comfortable and the food in the hotel restaurant was excellent. The hotel has recently been improved and the accommodation is a very high standard and excellent value for money. We are vegetarians and had delicious meals on both nights of our two day stay. An excellent base for walking in this lovely area, a great place to stay. A hidden gem!
Big rooms, high ceilings. Immaculately clean. Lots of light. Thick carpets, great towels, good kitchen. Tea, milk and coffee provided along with breakfast cereal.
Everything we needed was there for us. It's in a quiet area off the main roads, but close to local shop and Morrison's supermarket. Market square about a ten minute walk.
We were staying there to break our journey north. It's close to the A1M, but not too close.
Good location for visit to Kyren show in Bishop Auckland. Accommodation was spacious and everything we needed was supplied. Breakfast cereal was provided as was fresh milk in the fridge and bread in the freezer. We ate out whilst there but there was ample kitchen equipment should you wish to cook. Off street parking was also provided within a lockable back yard area.
The owner was welcoming from the start, nothing was too much trouble. Street parking right in front of the property was a godsend as most big hotels charge you for parking as well. We couldn’t fault it at all. Was excellent for what we needed. Returning customers, booked 3 more times since the first visit.
Excellent value for money.
Very comfortable 2 bedroom house near the centre of Bishop Auckland. Property was warm and comfortable with good kitchen facilities. Bed was very comfortable and the street was quiet at night so we had good nights sleep. 5 Minutes drive away from Bishop Auckland Golf Club which we would highly recommend visiting.
Locarion was very central. Bedrooms were cosy as described but there was plenty of room. Large lounge and bathroom and the kitchen was more than adequate for our needs. Was impressed by the cleanliness. The hosts provided accurate and useful information. Would definately go back if we are in the area again.
Beautifully decorated and really comfortable setting. The staff were delightful and very helpful. Check in and out was very simple and I was made to feel welcome instantly and for my entire stay. This trip was solo for business. I will be returning with my partner in the near future.
A wonderful hotel that is really haunted.
Absolutely great staff, particularly the receptionist and also manager was really friendly. He has only been there y weeks.
A lovely room and a tasty breakfast.
A fantastic hotel, well worth a visit. It is so so old, with so much history.
Very nicely refurbished flat and gave us a base to visit the area. The Auckland project is excellent and Locomotion at Shildon very good. Easy to get there by train and easy to walk around. Very thoughtful owners had left snacks and lots of useful things.
Staff were very pleasant and extremely helpful. The hotel is in a beautiful location and great for a peaceful stay. Breakfast was good - menu had a good selection, we wanted a more simple choice and they were happy to accomodate us.
Lovely place to stay with friendly welcoming staff.
Situated next to Escomb Saxon church and near to Bishop Auckland attractions.
Food excellent.
