read the reviews first before booking, and I can confirm that they are honest reviews.
It really was a nice experience, right from arriving, and being served tea and biscuits to leaving
The room was small but clean and comfortable, bathroom excellent. Hosts welcoming and friendly. nice to have home made biscuits and real milk to have with tea. breakfast was superb. highly recommended.
Had a lovely 1 night stay at the Baliol. Very warm welcome from Christine. The place is a little dated but it's clean and the breakfast was great. Our room was a twin with super new en-suite double shower room. Barnard Castle is a wonderful little market town and well worth a visit.
