Walworth Castle Holiday Cottage, Walworth Castle Lodge, Walworth, Darlington, Durham, DL2 2LY

This was a hidden gem! As there weren?t many reviews of this cottage we didn?t know what to expect but were pleasantly surprised by this lovely little cottage. It is lovely and spacious, pet friendly and nice and private, located in the grounds of the beautiful Walworth Castle. It has everything you need from kitchen utensils to really nice interior decor and the best feature - a private hot tub in the back patio area. The only downsides to the cottage were that the outdoor patio is slightly neglected with some of the meshed fencing coming off and there isn?t good lighting so going in the hot tub in the evening isn?t really possible unless you turn all of the indoor lights on. The Wi-Fi also didn?t work for us but as we had our phones it didn?t matter too much. Overall a fab stay for the price we paid and would recommend to anyone!

We stayed here for a week before Christmas. The cottage is warm and cozy. The cottage had eggs, milk, bread, tea and coffee. Plenty of towels provided.

Ideal for a stay with dogs. The yard where the hot tub is situated is fully enclosed making this safe for the dogs.

The bedrooms are comfortable and the living area is small with everything you could need. It was ideal for two adults but I think would probably be slightly cramped for four adults.

The cottage is just at the entrance to the hotel. Most traffic doesn?t go past cottage, the traffic passing in

Just perfect, The cottage is lovely. We arrived, picked up the keys to the cottage from the main desk, and a pleasant young man then showed up around the cottage and explained how everything worked. There was even bread, milk and eggs left for us.

The actual cottage was very clean, with everything that we needed. We have two large dogs, and the yard at the back was perfect for them to run around, as had very high fences. The grounds are beautiful.

There were two small things (and they are small ! ) that we noticed;

This lovely comfortable cottage is nicely decorated, and is furnished with co-ordinating fabrics of high quality. So there is a 'wow' factor when you walk in. The setting is beautiful and peaceful.

The hotel staff, who hold the key and help with everything and anything, are so friendly and made us feel very welcome from start to finish.

The Wi-Fi was a little hit and miss in the cottage but if you go over to the hotel, you can sit and relax in the foyer or outside and get great reception there. So that really wasn't a problem.

The hot tub was fabulous!

I booked this place as a Christmas break for 4 nights and took a gamble as there was no reviews available and i was very pleased. It is very well decorated and all you need is supplied. Darlington is 10 mins drive for all bits and bobs. It is in the grounds of a Castle hotel with plenty of land for the dogs to walk. There was no heating on when we arrived and it was a bit temperamental but they sorted it after 20 mins. The hot tub is great. Very comfy and a bargain at the cost. I would highly recommend and we will be back.
