Homelands Guest House

Good location. Friendly host when dealing with us but she left us to our privacy which we liked. The rooms were very clean. Towels were presented nicely on a shelf. Breakfasts were freshly made. The full English was very good with locally sourced food. The special yoghurt was a good continental option with all good ingredients like chia seeds. Easy walking into the town. Parking on the street was no problem. We booked as a base for a wedding. Taxis were no problem but if during the week we were asked to book in advance by the taxi firm.

Such a lovely, homely place, well run and comfortable. It's our fourth visit in as many years. We can't fault it. We recommend you stay there!

Just had a lovely two night stay at Homelands Guest House. Our room was excellent. The hosts are lovely. The food is delicious, all a perfect combination. We will definitely return to Homelands.

Ideal location for walking around Barnard Castle. High Street within five minutes. Accommodation in perfect order. A warm inviting welcome from Glenda. Room spacious, comfortable and with a full compliment of extras. Dinner can be provided on request. Superb range of menu on offer at very reasonable rates.

We stayed here for 2 nights as we were attending a wedding near by, when I tell you this place felt like a home away from home I mean it! We were greeted with friendly faces and shown to our room, we booked the garden room which we went through the garden to get to and the garden was stunning! Fairy lights at night time made it feel so magical and being in a room that’s away from the rest was great it was lovely and quiet. The room was so lovely, bed comfy we were very cosy, nice big dressing table and mirror which I enjoyed while getting ready! The breakfast was unbelievably tasty! 10/10 for this place I would definitely stay again if we are in the area! Thank you for having us! X

Room 3 at the front of this lovely house was comfortable and quiet. The hosts offer a warm welcome, and an evening meal, cooked to prior order, was absolutely delicious...pork tenderloin. I use public transport, and local buses stop right outside the house, which is in easy walking distance from the Castle and the Bowes Museum. All in all a very pleasant stay, andI would certainly recommend it.

Stayed one night in the awesome garden room. Tranquility at its finest. Large double bed with a full en suite. Clean tidy and everything one needs. The welcome and hospitality of our Italian host was awesome, nothing too much trouble. The breakfast was again excellent freshly cooked, hot and locally sourced products. Would I recommend Homelands…… in a heartbeat.

A real haven where you feel looked after from arrival to departure. I especialy enjoyed the home made Italian food - a treat not to be missed. This was my second visit to Homelands and I look forward to returning.

We stayed in Room 2 (Starry night) for one night to attend a show at the Witham in Barnard Castle and cannot recommend this place highly enough. The house is very central, with everything in Barnard Castle within walking distance and parking was easy (we got a space right outside in rush hour). Our room was larger than we expected (with a huge kingsize bed) and very quiet and comfortable. Consequently, we had a great night's sleep and awoke to a delicious breakfast in the sunny, spacious breakfast room. Glenda and Daniele are fantastic hosts, being friendly and welcoming but never intrusive, and we felt very much at home in their lovely guesthouse. We wouldn't hesitate to stay again the next time we're in town for the evening.
