This flat is in a beautiful location, right on the river, with views of the castle ruins which are lit up on An evening.!! The market town Barnard castle is a 10 minute walk, with some quirky shops, and lovely coffee shops. There were so many places to visit around the area. And the Lake District is not too far away. Can’t wait to come back again. Simply perfect

“Just lovely”

We stayed at this property for 2 nights beginning of December and would definitely recommend it. The property is immaculate and has everything you would need. We stayed in the back room of the apartment and the view of the river and castle are beautiful. The whole apartment is very cosy but spacious. More than enough room for 4 people. It is within walking distance (maybe 10mins) if that to the centre of the town. While there isn’t parking at the property it wasn’t a problem as if you drive a little further you can park on the road. We would definitely love to come back

“Lovely area .”

Apartment was excellent as was the host

“Lovely little apartment with everything you would need and close to shops and pubs”
Mrs Oliver August 2019

“The apartment is spacious and comfortable and is in a beautiful location, right on the river, with amazing views of the castle and bridge from the bedroom and living room windows.”

It is only a short walk from a very pretty town and lots of woodland walks along the river. We could have stayed longer as lots more to discover in the surrounding area. We had a day in Durham with its beautiful cathedral and visited the high and low force waterfalls, which were definitely worth a visit, but spent the majority of our week exploring the local footpaths and visiting Bowes museum.

“The place is a perfect mix between nature and a lovely small village”
Mrs Andersson July 2019

“Wow! our first impression of the apartment.”

The owner has thought of everything to make your stay there a memorable one. It was very clean and bright with all of the comforts of home. The view from the bedroom is most impressive and the sound of the river very calming. The area of Barnard Castle is a hidden gem, we had not heard of it before booking and have to say we were not disappointed. There is plenty to do just on your doorstep, lovely walks and within a 20 mile radius lots of places to visit. We would love to go back again very soon. Marie & John (Bella) dog

“Outstanding place, detail is second to none in a idyllic location.”

Highly recommend, you won’t want to leave.
Ms Hackett May 2019

“Highly recommend.”

The cottage was absolutely gorgeous. Perfectly clean, warm and welcoming. Everything u could need was there and available for use. Angela “the housekeeper “ who I would describe more of a friend was absolutely fantastic. She met us with a warm welcome on arrival and showed us round and explained how everything works and was on hand should we need her during our stay. The town itself was beautiful with plenty of shops, pubs and cafe’s. Katie’s fish and chips is well worth a visit. There are walks galore of which to choose and plenty of historic and beautiful sights to see, our favourite being High Force the highest waterfall in England., Absolutely beautiful. Listening to the river flowing by in the evening is so relaxing. The views from the cottage are wonderful, especially for nature lovers. Birds nesting in the bridge walls and bats at night caught our attention, even an owl. I would like to thank Angela and the owner for providing us with such a wonderful opportunity and thinking of everything for a home from home relaxing stay. We will definitely be visiting again.

“Unique location with a stunning view of Barnard Castle and literally on the river.”

The very comfortable accommodation made for a pleasurable stay. Easy picturesque walk in to town and not too far of a drive to some spectacular waterfalls. We have booked again for January when we'll be attending a wedding at Lartington Hall this being just a 5 minute drive away. Would highly recommend this luxury holiday apartment.
Jane B August 2018

“Stunning apartment. Perfect location.”

Just returned from a 7 night stay at this apartment and we are so impressed! Family of 4 and the dog and we all agreed this place is beautiful, a real home from home. On arrival we were made very welcome by Ang who was only a call away if we needed anything. The place was spotless, with all mod cons and a very well equipped kitchen. The apartment is in the most perfect and peaceful location looking over the river and the castle, and just a few minutes walk into the lovely town centre and lots of fabulous riverside and woodland walks. We would definitely recommend this place to anyone
Mr Stokoe August 2018

“Excellent stay at 1 The Riverside.”

Housekeeper Angela couldn't have been more friendly and welcoming. Apartment was clean, modern and very well equipped. Fantastic location, only a very short walk from the town of Barnard Castle. The town has lovely shops, cafes, playground- bigger than expected. Bowes Museum was great. Would definitely stay here again if visiting the area.

It was well stocked with every convenience inside, and most beautifully decorated. The housekeeper was at the end of the phone happy to provide any assistance. Overall the whole holiday was a wonderful, happy experience that we are very grateful for.

About the location

BARNARD CASTLE

Staindrop 6 miles; Richmond 13 miles; Darlington 16 miles; Durham 20 miles.

The market town of Barnard Castle is situated in the unspoilt countryside of Teesdale in County Durham. It stands on the site of an ancient Roman fort which crosses the river. The medieval ruins of the castle still tower over the river and are well worth a visit. Known affectionately as 'Barney’ by residents and visitors alike, the town boasts cobble streets, yards and back lanes, which were first laid out in the 12th century. The nearby Bowes Museum is well worth a visit and a wonderful way to spend a day wandering around this beautiful building and experiencing the fascinating exhibitions. Beautiful walking country is right on the doorstep of this lovely market town, with woodland walks and cycle routes and the Lake District, the Pennine and Teesdale Ways, and the River Tees and magnificent waterfalls at High Force are all within easy reach.
