Close
County Durham is the Land of the Prince Bishops. Bishop Auckland is their home. Auckland Palace Stays is at the heart of it all.
With properties set within and around the historic palace estate, each stay offers heritage, comfort and remarkable views. From elegant townhouses to period cottages nestled beside the palace gates, our properties blend timeless charm with modern ease. With gardens, galleries and history on your doorstep, every stay is steeped in story – and uniquely unforgettable.
Tucked away in the quiet corners of Bishop Auckland, our Cosy Cottages are charming town-center retreats full of warmth and character. With private courtyards, colorful interiors, and a peaceful atmosphere, they offer a relaxed stay just moments from the Palace, galleries, and riverside walks.
Nestled within the historic Auckland Palace estate, our Heritage Cottages offer a unique opportunity to experience English charm and timeless beauty. From Edwardian villas to garden gatehouses, each home blends heritage architecture with modern comforts, offering stunning views and access to the Palace grounds for a memorable stay.
The Auckland Project is a regeneration charity with a bold vision: to breathe new life into Bishop Auckland through art, heritage and community. By restoring historic buildings and creating world-class cultural attractions, it’s not only preserving the town’s rich past but shaping its future.
From the restoration of Auckland Palace to the launch of the Faith Museum and Spanish Gallery, The Auckland Project is creating opportunities, jobs, and pride of place – investing and reinvesting into the local economy to create a brighter future. It’s more than a visitor destination. It’s a long-term mission to spark lasting change in Bishop Auckland.
