Just 12 miles from the historic and beautiful city of Durham, Bishop Auckland is a market town with a good range of amenities. Bishops Green sits 2.6 miles outside the town, within easy reach of the long high street and its independent and high street shops, pubs and eateries. There are two large supermarkets - an ASDA and a Morrisons - to take care of the weekly shop, along with pharmacies, banks, and two fantastic local markets. Even closer to home, Coundon itself is home to several pubs, takeaways, a Sainbury-s Local and a dentist. This really is a place you can put down roots and become part of the community.
For a wider range of shops and amenities, or to enjoy some nightlife, the cobbled streets and bustling centre of Durham is a quick 20-minute drive north.
