House vacation rentals in Darlington

Wow! This place was above expectations, absolutely beautiful cottage and facilities. The cottage itself is so spacious and finished to a very high standard, spotlessly clean. The grounds and facilities on offer are superb. The location is stunning and perfect base for exploring the surrounding areas, so many places to visit. We’re already planning our next stay, thank you for a perfect stay!

great place for a family getaway, there were 11 of us so the games room and hot tub were prefect. close enough to Barnard castle to go out for dinner, beautiful surroundings, what's not to like

We loved our stay at Darlington!! The host was so responsive, everything went smoothly. 10/10 the hot tub was a great touch for both adults and kids! Would absolutely stay again!!!

6 adults, 3 children, a baby and dogs stayed at The Byre for 4 nights over New Year and we all had an amazing time! The accommodation was lovely and the private heated pool was a huge hit with the kids!! Sue was really helpful and responsive from the point of booking and throughout the stay. We will definitely be back!

Russell and Clare are great hosts who have created comfortable, well-appointed accommodation which is warm and cosy in winter and I imagine light and airy in summer. The beds were lush. The shower is great - powerful and consistent temperature. Eppleby is peaceful with walks from the cottage, a local shop & tea room - very friendly - and pub. It's a great location for exploring Richmondshire and Co. Durham. We had a relaxing short break at The Old Milk House and hope to return.

Myself, 9 others and 1 small dog booked on of Sue's fantastic cottages for a reunion weekend. Sue was very easy to communicate with, gave us the guidebook ahead of time virtually for any queries (we were very interested in the pizza oven and games room) Facilties were excellent, we were lucky that no other cottages on the site (only 3 others) were in use during our stay, so had free roam of the site and facilties. The local recommendations were brilliant. We went to the old black bull down the road for dinner on the first night and then again for roast dinner on Sunday - mega The house itself is just as shown in the photos, more than comfortable to sleep and house 10 of us for the weekend. Special mention to the hottub, (which is private for your house and I believe comes with all houses) and to Paul who was more than helpful coming to our rescue and reviving out pizza night when we experienced some issues with the oven. 10/10 would go again.

The house was perfect for my 50th celebration with family ( 6 adults, 6 kids and one dog), the garden lovely, the hot tub was used many times by all and the pool was great. Huge living room to fit us all in while still feeling spacious. Great communication with our fabulous hosts, house has everything, would highly recommend and would come again.

It's a great house, perfect for large groups. Plenty of quality spaces to gather together in or to spend some quiet time. The pool was great - larger than expected - but it was the grounds that surpassed all expectations. They're extensive and well- maintained with wonderful views.

Wonderful stay at Overdale Cottage. Beautiful location, beautiful property. So peaceful. Even better than the photos! Thank you Max and Martin, always responsive to messages as well. Can’t wait to return!

Spent a joyous week at Chantal's place in Bainbridge. It was cute, cosy, comfortable, quiet, stylish and well-appointed. Chantal was very attentive and had loads of great recommendations. Bainbridge is excellently situated for exploring the northern Dales and there are great walks to be had starting out from the village itself: the gentle climb up to tranquil Semer Water was a particular highlight.

Wow! What a beautiful home! We stayed for two nights and didn’t have a single bad thing to say. We arrived to a bottle of Prosecco and biccies. The house was spacious yet cosy, and beautifully kept. The location was perfect for us as we spent the Friday afternoon at Barnard castle and the Saturday at Hugh force. Both were less than half an hours drive. There was biofuel for the fire, little touches like olive oil, salt pepper and garlic paste so you could cook with the same ease as you would at home. and all the radiators were electric so you could turn them off easy and turn them on by asking Alexa to set the heating to X degrees. I would honestly recommend this to anyone who will listen to me ramble on about how lovely this place was. And make sure you do low force waterfall if you like a little walk as high force waterfall you had to pay a few quid entry fee which we didn’t mind and thought was worth it but ended up preferring low force, and the walk to it from high force was stun!

Claire & Guy’s cottage is absolutely beautiful. Claire was amazing at responding to my messages really quickly and even allowed us flexible check in and check out times, which was a god send with our two children. The cottage is up a little track surrounded by beautiful countryside and feels so peaceful but is still close to lots of things. The cottage is decorated beautifully and has everything you need. We were given plenty of instructions prior to arriving and we had everything we need throughout the stay. Can’t wait to come back one day! For anyone attending a wedding at Middleton Lodge, it’s about 10-15mins away so perfect location!

A lovely place to stay, Amanda was friendly & helpful and left a great welcome hamper including a bottle of Prosecco. Beautiful garden to sit in and lake walks on the door step. The property itself is immaculate and has everything you would ever need. 😊

We had a lovely stay. It's the perfect location for walking into town, but being in a nice peaceful location. Barnard Castle is lovely with some really nice cafés and shops. Bertie enjoyed his stay, especially the park next door and lots of lovely walks in the area. The welcome hamper was a lovely treat! Thankyou!

We have had a lovely stay, the property was very well equipped, spacious and clean. We’ve stayed in a few cottages and this is by far the best. A short walk to the restaurants, waterfall and a lovely walk along the river. It was very peaceful and will definitely stay again. Thank you

Great place to stay in a lovely area. Very comfortable with everything we needed and lots of thoughtful little extras. John and Tricia were friendly and helpful hosts with lots of useful local recommendations. We loved meeting all the animals too. Would thoroughly recommend.

We enjoyed our stay in the cottage, it was a great space and we had everything we needed. It was lovely to have the lights on to welcome us and some very sweet Christmas touches, which were beyond what we expected. I should have gotten in touch with Rita re directions for the place as they don't come through. The postcode leads you to the right place, but it wasn't clear when we got there... But that was my fault. The space was great, a very cosy place to stay and relax in and really accessible (by car) for walks and getting to Durham. I had 4 teens with me and we all loved it. The beds were very comfy and the decor and linens were really nice too. Thank you! We enjoyed our stay! 😊

Peter was a great host who communicated very well. Very clear instructions on how to find the house, how to work heating and even how firm each mattress was! On arrival we noticed attachments for a baby gate which he came and fitted within 10 minutes of asking. The house was very spacious and well equipped. Beds and sofa's were very comfy. The homemade brownies left for us were unbelievable and a really nice treat! We would definitely stay again.

such a wonderful stay! Penny was a fantastic host, and the house was perfect - so comfortable and inviting. To arrive (after a long car journey) to freshly baked brownies and finally relax was just perfect

The cottage was absolutely beautiful and exactly what we needed! the views were absolutely beautiful and the area was peaceful and relaxing. The welcome guide was so indepth and had recommendations for everything! Would definitely come back again!

Amazing location, easy walk up onto the moors or into Rosedale along the river valley. Beautifully restored and fitted out. Everything tool you could possibly need was provided in the kitchen. Peaceful seating area out the back and we loved seeing the rabbits and hearing the owls.

We had an amazing stay at the chestnut cottage. The cottage looked just as it did in the photos and was clean and well decorated. It was situated in a lovely peaceful village just 10 mins from a local town. The hosts were lovely and gave lots of suggestions for walks and places to go nearby. We managed to get squeezed in for Sunday lunch at the pub attached and this was definitely a highlight as the food was the best pub food we have had in a long time with a lovely, pleasant atmosphere. Would highly recommend if you are wanting a long weekend away.

For a quiet few days off the beaten track this place is ideal. From a dog owner’s perspective the garden was completely secure. Simple little things like the quality of the cutlery and decent sized mugs for your early morning coffee makes such a difference. The nearby pub is a hidden gem, they brew their own beer on site, and it tastes great. I wish we could have stayed longer.

We had a wonderful welcome from Julie and Damien. So friendly and went above and beyond to leave us thoughtful welcome packs and provide the most clean and beautiful space we could have wished for.. We highly recommend and will definitely be returning.
