Bishop Auckland Collection

The Bishop Auckland Collection consists of a thoughtfully curated selection of eight holiday cottages and townhouses resting in the heart of Bishop Auckland, Durham. This collection offers WiFi throughout, pet friendly accommodation, Smart TVs, private parking at each property and enclosed gardens or yards, making it a flexible base for couples, families and groups of friends wishing to stay close while enjoying their own space. Set within Bishop Auckland’s conservation area, the surroundings encourage exploration on foot, with historic streets, riverside paths and cultural landmarks unfolding naturally throughout the day. Treat your loved ones to a meal out at El Castillo, where Spanish inspired dishes are served in a relaxed, sociable setting, or choose The Oak Room Restaurant at Park Head Hotel for carefully prepared dining in refined surroundings, both offering a fitting end to days spent exploring. Make the most of your location by immersing yourself in the attractions surrounding Auckland Palace.

Wander the Walled Garden, where seasonal planting, sheltered paths and quiet corners invite unhurried moments outdoors. Spend time in the Deer Park, enjoying open views and the chance to encounter the resident deer as they move through the landscape. Step inside the Palace itself to explore its historic rooms and layered past, before continuing to the Faith Museum, where belief, reflection and shared stories are explored through thoughtful exhibitions. Discover international art and striking architecture within the Spanish Gallery, then descend into the Mining Art Gallery, where powerful works bring the region’s industrial heritage and human stories into sharp focus. The Bishop Auckland Collection offers a distinctive base for spending time immersed in the heritage, culture and atmosphere of Bishop Auckland.
