    An easy stroll from the station, the Houndgate Townhouse is ideally located. The room was small but had everything I needed, was spotlessly clean and a bed I could have slept in for days. The breakfast was off the charts, so, so good. Would definitely come back and try dinner next time. Strongly recommend.

    Good sized room, very helpful staff. Karl who was behind the desk when we arrived suggested places to eat as we were looking for vegan restaurants. Ideal location for travelling to the local racing circuit at Croft. Good selection of places to eat in the town. The Hideaway (great pizzas) and Manjaros worth a try.

    Lovely cosy barn conversion which was spotlessly clean. The outside area was great with comfortable seating and the hot tub was excellent to relax in especially at night. The property is ideally suited for Barnard Castle. The hosts (Allison and Jamie) are really friendly and can't do enough to help. The welcome pack was a great addition including milk, cereals, jams and a bottle of Prosecco. We had a top experience and will be back.

    It's cheap and cheerful. Stayed here numerous times over 7 years and naturally looking a bit 'tired' (aren't we all‽) but basically a nice hotel in a super location. Spacious free car park. Good bus service into the town centre. Tea and coffee making facilities in room and kitchenette available if you bring your own food, although a very decent chain pub/ restaurant literally next door. As a budget hotel, I would recommend.

    I recently rented a house that exceeded my expectations. The bathrooms were modern and spotless, offering a luxurious experience. The house's location was ideal, close to amenities like markets and restaurants. The landlord's warm and helpful nature made my stay even better. Overall, it was an exceptional experience that I'm looking forward to repeating.
