Eco apartment in Bishop Auckland

MarianneRating, 5 stars1 week ago

Lovely and calm apartment, very clean and well stocked, and had everything we needed for a 1 night stay while we were in the area to attend a wedding. The record player and nice selection of classical LPs was a great touch! Check in was super easy and with a personal touch, we picked up the keys from Fiona in their cycle shop downstairs, she was lovely! Easy parking close to the flat and short walking distance to the Market Square and Auckland Project museums. Really nice experience overall!

This was our second stay and was perfect . We had our son, his wife and baby with us this time and wondered if we’d have enough room for us all but it was fine, plenty of space for us all and Milo (the dog). Even has two parking spaces. Thank again😍

Paddock Cottage

PenelopeRating, 5 stars6 days ago

This was our first Airbnb experience and we have to say that the bar has been set very high. Our host Trevor was lovely, the area beautiful and interesting, and the accommodation excellent. There were plenty of great walks within an easy drive and it wasn’t overcrowded which made it all the more pleasant. Although the accommodation is great, it is worth being aware that the stairs to the bedroom may present challenges for some people, but if you think you can manage them, you will love this property. There are different options for heating, constant hot water and the kitchen has everything you need. The four legged neighbours are also friendly, if hungry; and my guide dog very much appreciated the lovely dog bed, fleecy blanket and flashing toy! Thank you so much Trevor, it would be lovely to be able to return in the future if we can manage it.

The Pink House, Durham

JenniferRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

Lucy made me and my two sons Joshua and Oliver feel right at home in her cute pink house in Durham. From the welcome to the pink house chalkboard, to the friendly and responsive instructions, we felt like we were in a 'home away from home'. The Pink House is within walking distance to picturesque Durham and the magnificent Durham Cathedral. We highly recommend this place to stay.
