We had a lovely couple of days staying in this cosy and peaceful accommodation. It was just as described and offered every amenity needed for a comfort stay. In a perfect location for walking into the town and also visiting the Bowes Museum.

The house is lovely as you walk in and they supply most things that you need, but we had some issues. In one of the bedrooms the bed was very old and every time you moved it made a noise, very uncomfortable. Also the bed broke when we sat on it after the 1st night, and when we asked for it to be fixed, they said they would send someone. After 6 hours with no communication, I chased it up and they said no one could come until Monday. We were staying Friday-Sunday and it happened on the Saturday morning, we had to beg them to come and fix it as we wouldn’t have had anywhere to sleep that night. There was also mould on the ceiling in our bedroom. There was also some basic things missing, very small tumbler glasses, limited cutlery and no cooking oil, and the dishwasher was awkward to use as the compartment to put the tablet in was broken. Overall it’s an okay place but it could be better if they fix the mould, put a new bed in the smaller room, and add basic things are needed.

Fabulous cottage in a great location. Easy walking distance to shops, pubs and some great countryside and riverside walks. Didn't need to use the car at all during our stay. Was a little disappointed that the rear garden was not very private and only has a small gate which a medium dog could easily jump over. Would have appreciated a bit more of a welcome pack as we've always had at other cottages. There was only one dishwasher tab, one toilet roll, a few sachets of milk, about 5 teabags. No kitchen roll, tin foil etc. Also only 4 coat hangers per bedroom. I would happily stay here again but would pack more of the essentials (and coat hangers!). Would be happy to recommend this place to friends and family.

This was a lovely property and we very much enjoyed our stay. The house is located in a very quiet street, so no traffic noise or noise from neighbours. It is a short stroll to the town centre with its castle, shops, pubs and a few restaurants. You can also walk easily to The Bowes Museum. The house itself is excellent. Very well decorated, modern, well-equipped and well laid out. It is spacious and we had everything we needed and had we wanted to cook, that would have been easy to do in the great kitchen. There is a small, pleasant back yard with a table and 4 chairs for evening drinks. We liked the personal touches such as shower gel and shampoo which we used instead of our own and it was very nice. There was also a selection of cleaning equipment, bin bags and a dishwasher tablet to start you off. The safety lights in the electric sockets were also a great idea. Overall we thought this was an excellent property and would definitely return.

Really enjoyed the stay, excellent property. One thing I would mention is the off road parking isn’t the largest so if you have a large vehicle like we do, it’s slightly tight, this however will not put me off returning.

Lovely house in a great location, really clean and cosy. Would have preferred the ‘insurance/damage fee’ was more obvious at the booking stage rather than the surprise just before my holiday. Be prepared for a £25 or £250 refundable damage deposit.

Nice clean place exactly as described unlike the extra hidden fees. Shame they couldn't be transparent about this in initial description. Nearly three weeks later and still waiting for a substantial £250 insurance refund or some communication as to why it hasn't been refunded. Extra cleaning fees at check out and an extra £10 random fee. Never had this on any other booking anywhere else. All these extra fees and we still had to chase up a code for entry. Couldn't fault the property, quiet, clean and well equipped.

We loved Wood St Cottage. It's in a great location in centre of Barnard Castle, with the bonus of a parking space. Easy walking distance to the Bowes museum and restaurants. Cozy and tastefully decorated, with a spacious kitchen diner. Cute courtyard garden and the benefit of being able to admire the wonderful flowers in neighbouring garden! Super comfy beds. Would recommend and love to come again.

Nice enough place and very convenient for Barnard Castle and shops. Booking let down by two main factors, additional fees not described prior to booking and access to parking, very narrow road with vans parked making it almost impossible to get past, and parking really only enough for one car not two as advertised. Could have been a little cleaner as well with rubbish under sofa left from previous stay.

A lovely little house in a quiet street, close to the town centre, with all facilities as per the Airbnb listing. If you arrive at the weekend and drive a large car you might find it tricky getting along the street and turning around outside the house if residents are parked outside their own houses

A wonderful stay at this cottage. We booked this last minute and felt it was perfect for our 2 night stay. It is in a great location, its very cosy and had convenient outdoor parking. I'd recommend this place if visiting Bernard castle and for beautiful countryside drives. It is just 25 minutes away from highforce waterfall.

This is an immaculate property in a really central spot in Barnard Castle. At the time of our stay (Aug 2021) everything seemed brand new and spotlessly clean. Great to have a dedicated parking spot too as the town can get very busy on market days. We would definitely stay again & would highly recommend.
