Chic 2BR Escape | Historic Horsemarket | Sleeps 4

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, nice space and everything you need for your stay."

The Three Horseshoes Hotel

8/10 Good

"It was a good place for my American visitors to spend their first night in the UK. A traditional pub in a very attractive town. Dinner and breakfast were good. We found the parking area at the back of Morrisons. A bit tight but after some back and forth I managed to wedge the car in and didn't block anyone else."

Cricketers Arms

8/10 Good

"Clean room"

Victoria Cottage - lovely 1 bed retreat with hot tub

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely clean little character cottage in a proper English market town."

2 bedroom accommodation in Barnard Castle

10/10 Excellent

"Overall a very good property. We did have problems communicating with the host about a problem with unlocking the back door. He said they would have it looked at but we never heard anything and the problem persisted. Overall though, a very nice cottage. We would stay again."

2 bedroom accommodation in Barnard Castle

10/10 Excellent

"A lovely holiday let with a short walk into the town. Fantastic views from the lounge with addition of donkeys, sheep and chickens to keep us amused. Would love to return to this property."

2 bedroom accommodation in Barnard Castle

8/10 Good

"Excellent location with parking permit supplied for nearby park. Attractive decor and scones from nearby cafe a nice touch. Whilst there is a folder with some useful information it wasn't clear how heating control worked thus a more detailed instruction would be good. Also couldn't see instruction booklets left for kitchen appliances which again are often useful for unfamiliar controls."
