Cottage holiday rentals in Darlington

Had an amazing time! The cottage was amazing and our hosts were extremely helpful with all of our questions 😊 10/10 would recommend anyone to stay here!

Well what can I say about our Easter break at Scorton, other than fabulous.! What a house. What a location. What a host. The house itself was well set out and prepared. There was only three of us, but easily fit more. Locality you have an amazing village green with two pubs that do food. We tried both. Lots of walking locally and visits to neighbouring Ripon, Richmond and Northallerton. Loads of space in the house and we were welcomed with some Prosecco, ginger biscuits and Filter coffee which was a lovely touch. We loved the log fire, which had plenty of logs, to last us over the four days. We will definitely be back ❤️

Great host and lovely accommodation, highly recommend

We had a lovely stay in the milking parlour, check in was easy no messing around the cottage was ready for us when we arrived, the space is much bigger than it looks too. The cottage had everything you needed and a lovely open fire also, we used the shared hot tub every day it was absolutely lovely. The area is very remote which is lovely however for a week with 3 young children without having to drive 30 mins there wasn't lots to do but we were lucky with the weather so for us was brilliant if it was cold and rainy however I'm not sure it would've been the same. Whilst there we visited the roman fort, hadrians wall, walked into the local village, visited talking tarn country park where they had Mini golf and you can hire boats, we went to fairhill recreation ground that was a brilliant park for all ages and the dog loved it too! we also visited rowleys for raspberry picking which the kids even my 21 month old daughter absolutely loved! Loved this little place and will be back

We absolutely loved our stay at Hannah’s lovely home! Beautifully furnished and the hot tub kept our children entertained. Richmond itself is lovely and easily walkable. And the Yorkshire Dales are just a stones throw away. We would recommend to anyone and look forward to returning!

Me and my husband visited as a family with our 8 year old daughter and two tiny chihuahuas. Our dogs can be a bit happy which was absolutely my motivation for picking this location, secluded quiet and most importantly the courtyard area with the hot tub was entirely secure. Meaning we could relax in the hot tub without worrying about any unexpected puppy escapes. The place itself was beautiful inside , the only bathroom is in the main bedroom but in a family setting this is absolutely no issue. It was the perfect setting for cooking, playing board games and watching movies. We were able to walk the dogs, spend time as a family and all had a comfortable uninterrupted nights sleep. I can see us returning for sure!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Richmond. The place was beautifully presented, had a lovely hamper waiting for us on our arrival and we made great use of the hot tub. It’s so close to all the local amenities and the North Yorkshire countryside. We did have a little trouble with the keypad instructions (there were 2 codes given) but apart from that, everything was as expected. Parking on a bank holiday weekend was a little tricky but we were lucky with getting spaces just at the right time. We’d recommend to others wanting to either get out and explore or stay in a cosy and warm inviting house.

excellent cottage in a fantastic village with beautiful walks along the river on your doorstep.

We had the most wonderful time at Joanna’s lovely cottage. It is even better than we imagined! The garden space was perfect for our dog, she could stay off the lead and we knew she was safe because of the wiring on the fence. Great location with lots of walks that were recommended on a leaflet left in the cottage which we found really helpful too. We would definitely return and recommend to others! Thank you again 🥰🥰

Absolutely amazing location and property. Check in and communication was hassle free. Made to instantly feel at home. Immaculate cleanliness and all the facilities to make our stay perfect. Unfortunately, we had to leave the property to go back to work (otherwise would have loved to stay longer). Full credit to Bev for her hospitality.

Great responsive host with early check in, lovely views with a ice cream parlour serving home made ice cream ,cakes and bakes -just a 5minute walk from the cottage. Great base for plenty of walks nearby. a clean peaceful and cosy cottage with Lovely scenic view from the cottage window, loved my stay everything was provided a home from home.

House was very well presented, only issue was the closeness of the road and having to cross it to use the car park, we had a young child with us and we had to be extra careful for him.. Anne

Ideal base for a few nights away, lovely location and beautiful little cottage. Had all the amenities you could possibly need, with a few extra touches by Penny which were well received so thank you. Would definitely recommend 🙂

I had a lovely time staying at Stanley Cottage. It is extremely comfortable and well equipped. Everything was as described and the location is brilliant for exploring the moors, very convenient for pubs and the cafe in Osmotherley and also very peaceful. Would definitely like to stay there again.

A fabulous place to stay. The Cottage is very cosy & all the furnishing are beautiful. Immaculately clean & well equipped too. A great & fantastic location to explore . Kate was very welcoming & I hope to be back soon. thankyou stuart & wendy

A Home Away from Home in Yorkshire" Our holiday at Laura’s cottage flew by far too quickly! From the moment we arrived, we felt so welcome and at ease. The cottage was spotless and beautifully maintained, with thoughtful little touches that made it feel just like home. It had everything we needed—even those little items you’d always have handy in your own house, which made our stay even more comfortable. The peaceful farm setting was simply lovely. We enjoyed watching the cows, sheep, and chickens, and we were delighted by the little squirrel that visited the garden. The tranquility of the place was just perfect—so calm and relaxing. A special mention to Laura’s mum and dad, who were incredibly warm and welcoming. We truly enjoyed our chats with them, which made our stay even more memorable. If you’re looking for a cozy, peaceful retreat in Yorkshire, this is the perfect place. We can’t recommend it enough and would love to return!

A very unique country getaway, perfect for our family get together. A quirky property with lots of charm. Surprisingly warm in the winter. Kids loved it having the tractors around the house and sheep in the field. Lots of tricky steps and hard floors for my youngest child to negotiate but he got the hang of it, and great that there was a cot and highchair provided. As other reviews say, everything is a bit ‘old’ but that’s the style of the property and we loved it. Very useful mudroom with washer and dryer. Comfy beds!

Beautiful place has everything you could need for a chilled weekend with friends, would highly recommend, so cozy with stunning views and right by the river which was a great little dog walk. We enjoyed the bbq and chiminea, also EV charger in the back was a big plus for us!

Jane met us on arrival, explained everything, then left us to chill out. The welcome pack and fresh flowers were a lovely gesture and were much appreciated. The cottage was spotless and felt extremely homely. We very much enjoyed the games room and enclosed hot tub. The garden areas were vast with lots of outdoor furniture. We enjoyed a lovely ice cream at Archers ice cream parlour (10 min walk) and experienced both pubs in nearby Heighington, very friendly, great food and service in the George & Dragon. Another recommendation is the nearby Raby castle, definitely a worthwhile visit. We definitely recommend staying at Ivy cottage and look forward to returning there again. Thank you Jane.

We stayed at Barbara’s airbnb for a night while we attended a wedding at the Croft Hotel. The location of the airbnb was perfect for us. The space and cleanliness was an added bonus.
