Vacation rentals with a fireplace in Bishop Auckland

First Cottage is beautifully situated, incredibly quiet with stunning views. Cottage was comfortably furnished and immaculately clean. We had everything we needed for our stay in generous amounts, nothing felt skimped or compromised. Janice and David were perfect, generous hosts, responding promptly to queries without ever being intrusive.

Had a great stay at Tom’s place, after a 5 hour drive we approached Durham and received a message letting us know the property was all ready and waiting for us which was a real bonus. We were really impressed by how spacious the bedrooms were, and the shower and bath were amazing too. Kitchen was well stocked for us to enjoy a drink before heading out into Newcastle for the day. Thanks Tom!

Lovely cottage for family of four and two labradors. Great location for walking in beautiful scenery. Michael and Fiona were excellent hosts. Not a single negative. Thanks very much

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.

We stayed at the cottage for a couple of nights and had an amazing time! The cottage itself is gorgeous and feels so cosy and homely. The decor is beautiful and the place was pristine. The large bathtub was a real stand out and worth booking the cottage for that and the log burner alone! Everything you could ever need is provided and we were so grateful for that. Any extras were available at a local small corner shop which was fab. We had a lovely couple of days away relaxing and have already recommended to a couple friends. We’d definitely come back again. Thank you for a fantastic stay.

Lovely clean cottage. Walking distance to some good restaurants. Nice comfy and quiet nights sleep. Great communication and very welcoming. I would definitely recommend and will be back.

The perfect place to stay for the night, very spacious rooms and clean throughout. Communication from the hosts was excellent and it was easy to get into the property.

Firstly we have to say a very warm welcome was had. We are very new to Air B and B. Many little items were found, such as dog treats and the welcome pack. Erica came across as very understanding as we took our own bedding as we do not use a duvet. The garden is fully enclosed which suited our dogs perfect. The baby gate came in very usefully as the rules of no pets upstairs.

Wonderful hosts; friendly and responsive. Great location that was close to the main shops, pubs and restaurants in Hexam as well as for visiting Hadrian's Wall. Extremely well equipped and clean. Highly recommend.

Absolutely loved my stay here! The place is beautifully decorated with so much character—stylish, comfortable, and full of thoughtful touches that made it feel like home. The setting was perfect too—peaceful, charming, and a great base for exploring the area. What really made the experience stand out were the hosts. Super friendly and welcoming, with incredible local knowledge that totally upgraded my trip. From hidden gems to the best spots to eat and explore, their tips made all the difference. Can’t recommend this place enough—already looking forward to coming back!

Linda's apartment was just perfect for our stay. Absolutely spotless, everything you could possibly want was available. Great location, 5 minute walk to the Metro then just 3 stops into the city centre or a little bit longer to the coast. Linda was lovely, very welcoming with great communication. Absolutely 5*. Thanks Linda x

Beautiful quiet location. Great facilities. Very clean and well presented home.

Great Communication .. even though we couldn’t personally attend . Neil made it very easy for family still to check in and enjoy the visit . Great location and quality accommodation

This is a very nice apartment and I would definitely recommend it. The location is very good. It is spacious and well equipped and also very clean.

Anne’s place had everything you needed for a short stay , was easy to find with handy parking behind the property . Breakfast was supplied which was a real bonus and milk and tea/ coffee and the beds were comfy . We went into Durham which was only 3-4 miles away and had the best Italian I’ve ever had so all in all a great stay . Thanks Anne . Sarah

Thomas’ flat was just as described. Great location to so many attractions and I loved the milk, bread etc that was provided. I’ve stayed in many Airbnb’s over the years and this was in the top two. Looking forward to visiting again at some stage. Thank you Thomas.
