Self check-in with keyless entry means you can arrive on your schedule, and we are always available should you need anything during your stay. Free on-street parking is available nearby, along with paid car parks just a short walk away.

This charming market town is known for its character, culture, and strong sense of community — the perfect mix of town energy and countryside calm.
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’s limited—so having a car is recommended if you plan to explore deeper into the Durham Dales or surrounding Yorkshire countryside.
