Barrington Lodge is a nursing home in Bishop Auckland, run by Harbour Healthcare (North) Ltd. It is registered for up to 70 residents and supports older people, people living with dementia, younger adults and people with a physical disability.

CQC rated it Good overall in April 2021, and Good in all five key questions. This rating was carried over from the home's previous registration, usually after a change of owner. Across County Durham, 92% of the 140 rated care homes are Good or Outstanding. The rating is 5 years old. CQC decides when to re-inspect based on risk, so this isn't a mark against the home, but it's worth asking what has changed since.
