About Us

Welcome to Castle Bank Care Home, a privately owned care home with a 'Good' rating from the Care Quality Commission, set in the peaceful Tow Law area of Bishop Auckland. We are dedicated to providing exceptional, individualised care for you or your loved ones, supporting a range of needs including diabetes, frailty, hearing impairment, heart disease, incontinence, and end of life care.

At Castle Bank Care Home, we pride ourselves on a comfortable and welcoming environment where residents' dignity and independence are always respected. Our bright and spacious home benefits from delightful gardens, cosy lounges, a modern dining room, quiet areas, and a family room, as well as on-site free parking and wheelchair access throughout. Residents can enjoy outings, engaging activities such as bingo, and relaxing in our hair salon.

We understand that every resident is unique. Our rooms are well-appointed, with features such as private terraces or gardens, en suite or assisted bathrooms, TV points, and call bells for peace of mind. You may personalise your space with your own furniture, and enjoy meals in your room if preferred. Double and twin rooms are also available for couples or those wishing to share.

Funding is available for self-funders, Local Authority arrangements (with or without top-up), and NHS Continuing Healthcare funding, ensuring flexible options to meet your needs.

Nestled close to local amenities including a bank, doctor’s surgery, park, and supermarket, Castle Bank Care Home is your partner in maintaining comfort and quality of life.
