If only the time-worn walls of Auckland Castle could talk! But seeing they can't, check if tours are available to hear some of its stories instead.
This fortified complex is situated in Bishop Auckland, a destination that has so much going for it! National Railway Museum at Shildon, Whitworth Hall Country Park, and Brancepeth Castle Golf Club are other worthwhile sightseeing opportunities not far away when you've finished up at Auckland Castle.
