The Neighborhood:
Located in the centre of Barnard Castle, the apartment is just steps from artisan coffee shops, independent boutiques, and traditional pubs. You’re also within walking distance of the famous Bowes Museum, the castle ruins, and scenic riverside walks.
This charming market town is known for its character, culture, and strong sense of community—the perfect mix of town energy and countryside calm.
Barnard Castle – the medieval fortress with riverside views.
The Bowes Museum – iconic for its grand architecture and impressive art collection.
Scenic walks through Teesdale and the North Pennines AONB.
Country pubs like The Three Horse Shoes and fine dining at Runa Farm or The Milbank Arms.
Artisan eats at Rise Market Deli, Artisan Corner, and fresh local produce from McFarlanes Butchers.
Getting Around:
Most guests explore Barnard Castle on foot, as everything in town is easily walkable. For day trips, we recommend driving to nearby beauty spots such as High Force waterfall, Middleton-in-Teesdale, or Raby Castle.
While there is some public transport, it is limited—so having a car is recommended if you plan to explore deeper into the Durham Dales or surrounding Yorkshire countryside.
