Private rooms with breakfast in Bishop Auckland, hotel in Bishop Auckland

Offering city views, Private rooms with breakfast in Bishop Auckland is an accommodation set in Bishop Auckland, 40 km from Beamish Museum and 43 km from Stadium of Light.

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!

    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.

    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!

    The area is so interesting. There are traces of its industrial past all around and it is a short drive to the Killhope lead mine or to Allenheads with its cafe, museums etc. Beckelshele is off the A689, at Lanehead, surrounded by open country with curlew, snipe etc. The owners live next door and couldn't be more helpful and friendly. We enjoyed ourselves so much that we have booked again in June - for a fortnight this time.

    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.

    The room was lovely although the bathroom was a bit awkward, with a tiny area around the basin. We had dinner there one night and the service was very slow , over an hour for pasta, although most people seemed to have already eaten when we ordered. Breakfast was good, freshly cooked and generous portions. Staff very friendly. A good location for visiting Bishop Auckland, and the little Saxon church is well worth a visit

    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.

    Ideal location for visiting the museums in Bishop Auckland though their prices are expensive compared to the other towns.!! It's not too far to travel to Spennymoor, Barnard Castle, Bowes Museum or Binchester Roman Fort. Some wonderful countryside. Handy having Morrisons supermarket a 5 minute walk away.
