    Plenty of shops, coffee bars, pubs .lots of history old buildings with interesting blue plaques. Steep in parts so I think it’s better for people who like to walk. Favourite pub was the Blue Bell very friendly and how a pub use to be. Lots of antiques shops to browse around. Nothing to avoid all good.

    Barnard Castle & the surrounding area is a beautiful place to visit. Great walking either by the river to the Abbey or a stroll around the friendly town to the Castle. Interesting history, nice shops, café, pubs & chippies. Relax & enjoy

    First I met lovely people at the Book Aid shop that drew me...

    First I met lovely people at the Book Aid shop that drew me in on the way to the castle. A woman there informed of the existence of some little known or advertised places of historical interest. The well known points of interest, the castle, the Bowes Museum, and the Butter Market—wryly referred to by local people as “the round thingy” in the middle of the high street—lived up to expectations. The charity thrift shops and the Witham, a cultural center cum shop on the High Street offered wonderful shopping. People working at the castle, the Bowes museum, and the food co-op were wonderfully helpful, The food and service at Blagraves in a remarkable building, parts of which date from the 15th century, were excellent. The town is easy to get around. Almost everything to be seen and done is on three contiguous streets, Galgate, the High Street, and the road leading from the Butter Market, about a five-minute walk, to the Bowes Museum (I didn’t get its name). There’s a sign for the castle ruins hidden and sloping downhill behind the Methodist church at the corner of Galgate and High Street. I was only disappointed to not be able to see the prayer labyrinth in the floor of St.Mary’s Anglican Church at the corner of High Street and the road to the museum. It was covered with chairs occupied by worshippers for a special service with performance by a huge childrens’ choir at the moment I looked in on a Friday afternoon and the seating was being kept in place for several services over that weekend of the third Sunday of Advent. It was a consolation to see such signs of spiritual life in that church, and, God willing, I’ll get to see the labyrinth at a quieter time.

    The hosts (Glenda and Daniele) were wonderful and very kind. We had two rooms: two of us were in the garden room, which was absolutely wonderful. I stayed in the single person room (room 1) which was quite small, but equipped with every amenity and comfortable. Both rooms were on the garden and very quiet at night. The breakfast was the best English breakfast I have ever had in many trips to the UK! Parking on the street was free, and it is 10 minute walk to the town centre.

    We visited Barnard Castle from US (Brooklyn NY) for a family wedding. We were not familiar with the area, but loved how the home is tucked away on a quiet street yet walking distance to center of town . Don't forget to look at the helpful binder and sit in the little garden. I really appreciated the treats on arrival as we had a very long train journey. The house is packed with charm and kept very clean. I only wish we could have stayed more than two nights.

    We were looking for a stay near High Force and Barnard Castle so this was perfect! A really reasonable rate with hearty breakfast included. We received simple instructions of how to access our room and were very pleasantly surprised at the lovely room we had. So comfy. We had a shared bathroom but didn’t see another person during our stay. The staff were lovely and the locals friendly and helpful in the bar.

    Really great place to stay, gorgeous local area. The room I had in the courtyard was exceptional, cosy but enough space. Decent comfy bed, powerful shower and so quiet you cannot hear any other guests. The breakfast was delicious and I also had an evening meal there too which was superb. There were a few of us staying with our dogs and they made us feel very welcome. Would definitely book again!

    Situated at Brignell a short country drive from Barnard Castle, through pasture Yorkshire. Lily Hill Farm is set in green pasture lands, sheep grazing but just a few minutes drive to town and the fabulous Bowes Museum.
