We stayed at Wood Street Cottage for 4 nights and We had the most wonderful time catching up with family and the cottage had everything we needed, it was clean, cosy and was very central. Town centre was very close and access to all restaurants were very good, including Capri Italian restaurant at the bottom of the lane.
We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Wood Street Cottage and well definitely be back.
I couldn't see anything we didn't like.

The facilities at the cottage were excellent. No complaints at all. In addition, the rooms were lovely and warm. Plenty spaces for toiletries and clothes. We were there as a couple, but cottage was spacious enough to house 4 people very comfortably.
A washing-up bowl would have been handy.
In the bedroom at the side with the window, there appeared to be a hole in the floor under the carpet.

The facilities in the cottage it had everything we could need,it was in a good location.
If I had one tiny thing to say it is the sofas whilst comfy for a short sit down they weren't very comfy on the night when we relaxed to watch tv, we would normally relaxin bed and watch a film but as no tv upstairs had to watch in sitting room.

Very clean well maintained property. Good central location.
Very narrow street access to the property could be tricky parking if you have two cars.
8.0 / 10.0
Although parking is provided, the lane is very tight and would not suit larger vehicles. We just got through.
I liked the eco-friendly features, although these were slightly confusing where the guide book prides itself using who gives a crap but no other rolls provided. The owner was great in answering my query but I found Host and Stay's reply rude as I am very aware these places are self catering. I wanted to ensure I was following the ethos of the owner.
The location was perfect.

Lovely cottage and a great location, really easy access to the town and the hospital where I was visiting a family member was 2 minutes car journey up the road.
Would highly recommend.
The only down side was the cooking hob didn't work so had to eat out, however this was reported and should now be fixed.

This property is centrally located. It takes just minutes to walk into Barnard Castle, with all its lovely restaurants and cafes.
The cottage is spacious and well appointed. The bed in the main bedroom was gigantic and both beds were comfortable. We found everything we needed for our stay and more.
The neighbour in the adjoining property was very friendly. He came straight out to meet us on our arrival and gave us some restaurant recommendations and maps of the local area.
The sofas in the lounge were a little on the small side and not the most comfortable. I don’t think this would be a problem if you visited during the warmer months and were out and about most of the time. However, the weather was very cold so we’d planned lots of cosy nights in at the cottage and would have appreciated a bit more comfort.

Nice spacious modern cottage with comfortable furniture. Very close to the town centre and free parking in front of the cottage.
Some of the flooring at the top of the stairs and in the large bedroom is in need of repair The walls have alot of marks on them and are in need of a fresh coat of paint. The carpets and rug pretty stained and could do with being cleaned. We arrived in the dark and there was no light to see the keysafe/number.
8.0 / 10.0
The keys were a bit difficult to find. At the back door but around the side of the wall
There was no information on how to use the heating. It did say there was information in a drawer but it was not there. We found the controls for the TV a bit confusing at first.

A really nice cottage, located in the heart of town and yet it was so quiet. Great location to visit the Bowes Museum, Castle and shops. It was perfect for our weekend stay to visit relatives.

A beautiful cottage in an excellent location, close to the centre but off a lovely quiet street. Very comfortably furnished and we loved the sunny garden. Definitely recommend a stay here and we'd love to come back!
Please don't stint on loo roll, and it was very cheap quality, plus there was no hand soap in the bathroom so we had to buy our own of both items. The freezer needs defrosting, as you could only open one drawer with some difficulty.

Overall a very nice property, well kept and nice.
Would like some of the information/links you sent actually at the property rather than having to look up. I am a of the older generation and find to much online a problem or can't be bothered with it.

Lovely cottage in a great location for town. Large rooms. Nice decor. Well equipped. Decent shower. Comfy beds. Good internet, TV/satellite & sound system. Host always responded quickly. Really enjoyed the stay.
The arrangement the management company had for a damage deposit which they charged you an admin fee for even if no damage was done. This was not described in the listing. Only told about it after we booked. Also inflexible early check out time.

The electronic visitors guide and hard copy version in property were comprehensive and helpful. The property is well located near the heart of town and the excellent Bowes Museum. It came with lots of nice touches: coffee and tea, all mod cons in the kitchen and practical domestic touches throughout
The accidental damage links didn’t work but managers helped to resolve in reasonable time.

Great property in a great location being so close to everything the town has to offer. The parking space outside the front door was a big plus point but not so sure it would take two large cars without being a problem for the next door neighbour - 1 large or 2 small cars maybe.
The "use by" date on the milk left in the fridge by the host was up on the day we arrived.
Too many unnecessary emails. One email confirming the booking and one confirming the access arrangements would have been sufficient - 12 emails in two weeks is just ridiculous.
