Homelands Guest House is 10 stars

What a wonderful place to stay at for 3 days. The service was excellent and breakfast was really good. I would also suggest booking a dinner or 2 as its one of the best dinners I ever had. There is also plenty to do in Barnard Castle and the surrounding area. They also will do your laundry for you at a reasonable price. Plenty of free on-street parking. Thank you, Glenda and Danielle, for this wonderful time.

Home away from home

Thank you to our hosts, we enjoyed a fabulous overnight stay. Homelands really is a home away from home. Our room was spacious. Large comfortable king size bed, spotlessly clean. Wonderful locally sourced breakfast, extra touches such as a teapot and mince pies in the room.

Cycling holiday

The hosts were very welcoming with tea and coffee and home-made cake. We had a lovely clean and fresh bedroom with toiletries. The breakfast was fantastic and very filling. We had somewhere safe to store our bikes. Barnard Castle was a nice place to visit.

Feel like at home

We spent a couple nights in Homelands, the days when our daughter got boarded in Barnard Castle School and Glenda and Daniele made us feel like at home. The food was great and the en suite room absolutely relaxing and warm.

Welcoming and homely with a touch of real class

Spent 3 days at Homelands and had a wonderful time. Central location 5 minutes walk to centre of Barnard Castle. We were in the garden room suite which was charming and well appointed. Breakfast lovely and Glenda and Danielle were perfect hosts, friendly, helpful and very welcoming. Will definitely be back to stay next time in Barnard Castle. Plenty to do in the town and some beautiful walks.

Hidden gem

Found this place at the last minute, got a room because someone else had to cancel. A very lucky find. The owners are very nice and friendly, the room was immaculately clean (a priority post covid, felt safe), the breakfast was fantastic, local butcher sausages were so tasty.
