About Walworth Castle Holiday Cottage

Walworth Castle Holiday Cottage is a detached, single-storey cottage set on the grounds of Walworth Castle in the small, scattered village of Walworth, County Durham. Resting within 18 acres of lawns and woodlands, this delightful cottage is an ideal base for touring the area and is just three miles from the A1.

The cottage has been tastefully furnished with an open-plan living area which creates a seamless flow between the main living areas. The kitchen is well-equipped for culinary creations, the dining area invites you to gather round to enjoy those meals and the sitting area is the spot for relaxation and downtime.

Further along, you'll find two comfortable bedrooms, a family bathroom and a lovely, enclosed patio area to the rear, where you can relax in the hot tub with an indulgent soak after a day out in the Northern Dales. You can also enjoy the surrounding grounds which are shared with the hotel's guests.

Walworth Castle is a magnificent Grade I listed, 12th-century castle, which operates as a wonderful three-star hotel, and from your cottage, you can stroll across to the hotel to treat yourself to a glorious afternoon tea, a bar meal in Farmers' Bar, or push the boat out and sample an exquisite dinner in Hansard's Restaurant and Library Tower. A short drive will take you to Darlington with a selection of restaurants, pubs and shops, as befits a large thriving town.

A little further afield, explore the splendid countryside around Richmond and Barnard Castle, enjoying the classic Dales landscape of dry-stone walls, rivers and valleys. This is the perfect walking country for those wanting to explore the upper valleys of Middleton-in-Teesdale, incorporating the well-known Cauldron Snout and the High and Low Force waterfalls.

Head north and visit the magnificent Durham Cathedral, perched high above the meandering River Wear. This delightful cottage is perfectly placed for exploring the Northern Dales.

Walworth Castle Holiday Cottage Reviews

Abigail

This holiday cottage was amazing, had everything we needed, Had all the facilities provided. Was a great stay!

Yvonne

We stayed for 12 nights the fridge only has an ice box, so very limited freezer space. The fridge didnt keep food cold, even when turned on full. Hot tub was a big issue, if it was topped up, it took hours to reheat, and rarely reached full temperature of 40. The lid was extremely heavy and it was a struggle for 2 adults to replace. This was changed at day three. Towels and bedding was replaced once during the 12 days. The rubbish was still there when we left no bin bags to replace when full. I also felt the hot tub area was extremely dark at night. The cottage itself was nice and with a few adoptions could actually be great.

Beautiful entrance to the castle grounds with great parking at the cottage. On arrival the cottage was lovely and warm and very welcoming. 2 good size bedrooms and a big bathroom, nice bedding, with plenty of towels. The living area is all in one which is really convenient, the kitchen is well stocked, meaning you have everything you need to cook with plenty of glasses, crockery and cutlery. In the sitting room area of the living quarter there are 2 sofas that are very comfortable and a good size smart tv. Outside is an enclosed yard which is perfect if you have a dog. The hot tub is lovely, sitting at about 40 and very clean. A couple of improvements could be made, but please don't let this put you off. A curtain across the front door would not only make it warmer but if you have the lights on, walking through the hallway at night you feel a little exposed as there is just nets over the large glass front door. A new bath panel and a little silicone would improve the bathroom which is lovely and the lights in the mirror unit need looking at. The top of the hot tub needs a bar to assist with the removal and closing as it is heavy. It's not for everyone but personally a TV in each of the bedrooms would be a great improvement. The above are little improvements in an otherwise beautiful cottage, with lovely grounds to walk around, that we will 100 be booking again. As a side note, I spoke to multiple members of staff while on site and everyone was extremely helpful and friendly, credit to the staff.

This was our 8th visit to this wonderful cottage. As always the cottage was spotlessly clean and warm. The staff at the hotel are so welcoming and friendly when we picked up the key and had a meal. The enclosed yard is perfect for our small dogs. We love the hot tub which is well maintained. Its the perfect location for exploring the area and small villages. We loved the new updates to the cottage. Just back and have already booked for next year and cant wait. Let the countdown begin.

Situated in the Ripon area of North Yorkshire this popular theme park makes a fantastic day out for the whole family. The more daring will love the big and thrilling rides such as Raptor Attack, The Ultimate and Trauma Tower. For the little ones there are some excellent attractions such as Flying Camels, Dodgems and a Magic Wheel. Toddlers will like the Dragon Boats and the Lightwater Express amongst other things. There are over 40 rides and attractions in total and we think this is excellent value for money too. If you book your tickets in advance online you can save even more money and beat the queues.
