House vacation rentals in County Durham

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!!!

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.

Lovely cottage for family of four and two labradors. Great location for walking in beautiful scenery. Michael and Fiona were excellent hosts. Not a single negative. Thanks very much

I live local to Kim's Airbnb only staying there while I was having building work done and needed a pet friendly home for 1week Been a local and have walked past this street many time and have always wanted to see inside....did not disappoint...thanks again Kim .. fabulous x

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!

Stephanie's cottage is in the most beautiful location. The sat nav given in the instructions takes you right to the gate. We went over New Year, and the cottage is beautifully warm, comfortable, completely equipped with everything you need and spacious. If a uniquely beautiful location, remote and quiet, is what you are looking for on holiday, there cannot be many places that are better situated. The farmer, Donna, was available if we had any questions, and was incredibly friendly and helpful. The scenery is as beautiful as anywhere in the world - this cannot be overstated.

Lovely, lovely house and a stunning garden. Our dog absolutely loved it. So close to town whilst being far enough away. Lovely nature reserve for dog walking a short walk away and a parade of local shops in the doorstep. The house was so warm and spacious and had absolutely everything we could have needed. We spent loads of time in the conservatory drinking tea, chatting and looking out at the beautiful garden. We will definitely be looking to book again as we have family near Darlington, so location is ideal. Gillie was a great host, questions answered before we even asked. Lovely, lovely experience, thank you Gillie!

We cannot say enough about Alexandrias place. It was charming and spacious inside Lots of room to lounge and relax after a day out exploring, everything was great i side and out. All of our seven guests thoroughly enjoyed their stay. The back garden lit up with morning sun & birds chirping. We made the most of the yard sipping morning coffee & teas + Yoga on the lawn + chairs & a big table to gather Guests around for drinks/food/games.

Thank you Nathan for a lovely stay! The property was super clean and exactly as described/pictured. Check in/out was simple and Nathan was great at checking in on us during our stay. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Really great location. A home from home with everything you need

We really enjoyed our stay in Clare's cottage. It was beautifully furnished and spotlessly clean. The dog walks right on the doorstep were an added bonus.

We had a lovely stay here! The cottage is immaculate and there are so many lovely little touches, including an amazing welcome basket. If we’re ever in the area again, I would definitely stay here as it was so nice :)

Very convenient to train station and city center (though lots of stairs if you have luggage). Well equipped and clean. Host responded promptly about small things that weren’t working. We would have loved to have salt and pepper available, but coffee, tea, biscuits were a nice touch.

Such a lovely place to stay for visiting Durham. The house is so cosy and there’s everything we needed. It’s very peaceful and there are plenty of shops and places to get food in the village. Thanks for another lovely stay.

what a great little place the Anchorage is, such a quirky place to stay ( not very wheelchair accessible) perfect place to chill and relax on the small balcony with a great view, then after the sunset..drop downstairs to your private hot tub.The added bonus of the pub next door ( so quiet never heard a thing) such a friendly pub too , great meeting with the locals who were all friendly.Tony and Jane were the perfect hosts, there if you needed anything but never bothered you, great with them living so close... definitely recommend this property to anyone.

Beautiful cottage, games area was great, really enjoyed ourselves. Hot tub was lovely and the garden area at back was secluded and well maintained. Loved the outdoor shower , great before getting in hot tub but also useful for hosing down a muddy dog. All in all the cottage felt really homely and a little bit of luxury. Emily seems to be a lovely host and always responded quickly to any queries. Will recommend her to friends and family and would certainly consider coming back.

Such a beautiful place to stay - incredible views and so peaceful - just birdsong. The house was perfect - super comfy bed, well equipped kitchen, warm and clean. Thank you for the lovely bread too - such a nice touch. Would very much recommend.

A perfect place for us! We absolutely loved our stay!
