The Ancient Unicorn, hotel in Barnard Castle

Situated in Barnard Castle, 7.9 km from Bowes Museum, The Ancient Unicorn features accommodation with free WiFi and free private parking.

Room was very cold on arrival, building was unmanned. Heating came on around 17.30 until 10.00, still. off when we woke at07.30, and still off when we went out at 10.30, despite our comments to staff. Your staff assured us our problems would be passed on to others, ans were efficient and kind throughout our stay. The second difficulty we had was the washbasin cold tap was not working, making washing in very hot water extremely difficult. Despite reporting this problem at least three times daily,the problem still existed three days after our arrival (just realised am writing in the wrong box). What I did like was your staff, Susan and her pal were lovely, and assured me there would pass on my problems re heating.

I had an evening meal & breakfast and thought the quality of both was excellent. I had a pint of the Hobgoblin stout and thought this was excellent. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. The room was ideal for my needs with well stocked beverages, towels, washing products and a radiator which could be regulated.

    Superb B&B just outside Barnard Castle in the quiet of the countryside. We booked to stay as we had tickets to see a show at the Whitham in Barnard Castle and it was a really easy commute back and forth from the show. Karen the host was lovely and the room was spotless with fantastic views of the farm and the countryside. The fresh scone on arrival was beautiful as was the fresh fruit and cooked breakfast the next morning. The bed was comfortable and the room had a lovely cosy feel.

    Delightful and very welcoming host. Location very quiet with wonderful views. The real bonus was a flannel with the towels.....very unusual to include in either a hotel or a bed and breakfast.

    Brenda & Daniele are great hosts, very friendly & attentive. The house is very nice, in a great location for exploring Barnard Castle, they welcome dogs (our whippet George had a lovely time). We'd recommend booking at least one Tuscan meal during your stay, it's a real taste of Tuscany. We'll definitely be back.
