The Carriage house was a great base for our group consisting of 6 adults and 1 teenager, the beds were comfortable and clean, the house was very homely and clean but could do with a lick of paint in some parts but overall it was lovely.. The walled garden was nice to relax in after a busy day, the bonus of 2 car parking spaces was really good as it could get busy around the surrounding streets. The location of the house was perfect to wonder around Barnard Castle and to Walk to Bowes Museum. We travelled to Durham and Richmond in about 30 mins so great place to travel from. Most things are open but due to Covid you do need to be organised and book in for meals as there are not as many places open as there would normally be, the Three Horseshoes who own the Carriage House do a nice meal, I would happily go back to this house and would recommend it to anyone
