Manor House Hotel, hotel in Bishop Auckland

A charming English manor house close to the A1 road. WiFi is free in public areas and food is served all day.

This little hotel is quant and beautiful - as it was 21 years ago when we had our wedding reception here. The only difference is that now the rooms are no longer a bit moth eaten and dusty around the edges but instead really gorgeous. The renovations are contemporary but very much in keeping with the original features. The stairs are still as squiffy as you’d expect from a building of this age, and it hasn’t lost any of the lovely character.

Pod was absolutely beautiful, exactly as it appeared online. As a disabled person, the access was very good, parking was nearby and inside the pod everything was easy to use. Shower was great. The 68 Cafe is just next door and is excellent. The number of regulars using the cafe show that it is very popular which is always a good sign.

    Parts of Bishop Auckland are a little 'scruffy', quite a few empty shops in the town, although there are the usual supermarkets etc in the out-of-town shopping centres. Auckland Castle and museums were very interesting. The guides in Auckland Castle were knowledgeable and very happy to show off everything there. The gardens will be stunning once they mature a little.

    Bishop Auckland is undergoing great renovations.

    Bishop Auckland is undergoing great renovations. Though the main street has some way to go, the Market Square and Bishops Palace area is really attractive. The Castle (Bishop's Palace), Mining Art Gallery and Spanish Gallery are full of interest, well worth the entry fee (book annual pass online for best value). The best thing was the friendliness of the people we met, both as knowledgeable guides in the attractions and welcoming locals in the pubs and restaurants.

    Bishop Auckland is being regenerated.

    Bishop Auckland is being regenerated. Around the market place is gorgeous. Auckland Castle is beautiful with a fabulous coffee shop. We went to the Kynren Festival. It was outstanding, like nothing we’ve seen before. Would highly recommend it.

    B A is full of surprises.

    B A is full of surprises. For the size of the town it has multiple sites of interest with the Bishop’s Palace/Castle steeped in history back to its origins with the Norman conquest nearly one thousand years ago, to a mining museum of local art from the recent past. The town is compact with easy parking, some nice eateries and still boasts easy access to the countryside walks within the Castle’s deer park. It also serves as an excellent base for exploring further afield. Durham, and it’s Cathedral, the Beamish museum, the Bowes museum at Barnard Castle, the nearby Raby Castle, a Roman Fort, Hadrians Wall, and the list goes on.

    Big rooms, high ceilings. Immaculately clean. Lots of light. Thick carpets, great towels, good kitchen. Tea, milk and coffee provided along with breakfast cereal. Everything we needed was there for us. It's in a quiet area off the main roads, but close to local shop and Morrison's supermarket. Market square about a ten minute walk. We were staying there to break our journey north. It's close to the A1M, but not too close.

    Location perfect for my needs. New, excellent condition. I am on a 3 week journey, & here I was able to wash some clothes - dried overnight in this hot weather. Enjoyed Bishop Auckland - which I barely knew: the Patron, Mr Rufford is doing marvellous things - the town looks as if it's been transported from France. Exciting developments at the Bishop's Palace.

    Locarion was very central. Bedrooms were cosy as described but there was plenty of room. Large lounge and bathroom and the kitchen was more than adequate for our needs. Was impressed by the cleanliness. The hosts provided accurate and useful information. Would definately go back if we are in the area again.

    Lovely room and great location for visiting Bishop Auckland which is well worth a visit. The courtyard area is pretty. It also felt good reading about the Auckland project and knowing your stay was contributing. The tomato and goats cheese tart in the restaurant was great
