In a nutshell:
Bishop Auckland is the must-see destination of the moment with a fascinating past, a renewed present and a watch-this-space future.
Ramble or run, talk and walk or sit and share time together in Auckland Castle Deer Park.
This former pleasure ground of the Prince Bishops of Durham has an elegant 18th century Deer Shelter acting as both “eye catcher” as well as shelter and feeding station for the once-present deer.
For the birdwatchers in the family spotting opportunities galore are found within the Park’s varied landscape which includes both ancient woodland and the quaintly named River Gaunless meaning “lazy” or “useless” river.
