There are lots of things to see and do, including the breathtaking High Force, England's highest waterfall, and a wealth of history waiting to be discovered at the fantastic Raby Castle, whilst the stunning Witham Hall, in the centre of Barnard Castle, and Egglestone Abbey, an abandoned monastery on the banks of the River Tees, both sit just outside the town.

The flat was warm and cozy and was a joy to return to after a day of exploring. Everything had been considered. The Bowes Museum was just round the corner and there are plenty of lovely local walks. We parked the car and didnât use it the whole week!
