Villa vacation rentals in Darwen

My family and I (7 adults & 1 child) recently stayed at ‘The Cottage’ and we all agreed that it was a wonderful holiday. The house is beautiful, very spacious, spotlessly clean and was well equipped for all of our needs. The hub is definitely the kitchen, we enjoyed playing family board games around the dining table. The gardens are amazing we loved watching wild rabbits, squirrels and cows everyday. It was nice to see home grown vegetables and a herb garden too. Our grandson enjoyed playing football with his dad in the garden, jumping on the trampoline and feeding the fish. It is ideally located for travelling into York and not far from the designer outlet. Our group ranged in age from 2yrs to 78yrs and there was something for everyone to do at the house. We all really needed a family break due to recent illness and enjoyed spending time together making lovely memories. We hope to be able to stay again and thank both Neil and Adrienne for sharing their beautiful home with us.

It felt like home away from home. Great space to relax, gather and eat with family and friends. Gary was very responsive to messages prior and during our visit. We’d highly recommend this property and wouldn’t hesitate to book again if we visited Manchester again.

Had a couple of days away to destress after Christmas. We only live 10 minutes drive away but it felt like we were far,far away. Lovely property overlooking a lake. It was cold and foggy one of the days but we had lovely walks around the lakes. The host was great. Had contact and they were fast and helpful. Hoping to make this an annual event every January now. Thank you for letting us stay in your beautiful property.

Lovely place. Spotlessly clean. Super host.

Mr. Rocky was very responsive. We had a friendly host who is always keen to give clear instructions. The villa was neat and clean and exactly matches with the photos based on the listing. The villa is located in a peaceful area. I recommend this villa for those who want to enjoy a peaceful environment and homely feeling.

Mark is great host, we very much enjoyed our stay at his property. The description on his listing is very accurate and the house is located in a lovely area, giving you enough privacy and time away from the city noise but also well connected to many amenities and little villages with lovely views. Mark was kind, attentive to detail and ensured that we had everything we needed during our stay at his property. Thank you very much Mark! And we will definitely want to come back for a break some time soon :)

It is in a lovely location, great views of the Malvern Hills, lots of good walks close by. Many good eating places not too far away. The Cow Shed is well equipped, with an excellent bathroom and shower, comfortable living area. The kitchen is a bit smaller than we would have liked, but it all worked really well. Nigel was very attentive, making sure we were comfortable. Our elderly spaniel enjoyed the space around and got on well with the two really friendly terrier residents! Will definitely revisit.

A wonderful stay at Sarah’s house! We had such a great time and the house was perfect for what we wanted. The grounds are stunning and the house has everything you need for a comfortable stay! Thanks again for a great weekend!

Man’s communications were excellent and the stay was exactly what we were looking for. Given the location the price was extremely reasonable for the size of the property. Mak was even kind enough to gift desert which was delicious!

What an amazing place! The interior design is amazing with fantastic fit and finish. We really enjoyed the place and for us it was a great launch site for checking out Wales and in particular Cardiff. Wish we had more time there. We all slept well. Would definitely recommend and hope to be able to return one day.

We were a group of 8 friends spending a long week-end to play golf in the Southport area. The house was fantastic, a lot of space for 8 people, great equipment, super clean. The location was absolutely perfect for us with fantastic golf courses (Hillside & Royal Birkdale within 15 minutes drive, Formby within walking distance...) nearby. There are shops and restaurant nearby. The communication, check-in & check-out and interaction with Debs were really easy. I can only highly recommand this house, superbe!

Just after a 4 nights stay at the beautiful Manor House. We are a large group who travel around every new years and couldn't recommend this house enough. All the bedrooms super spacious, kitchen and livingroom huge and great for socialising. Didn't hear any noise once you were tucked up in bed either. We had a couple of questions during the stay and they were answered pretty quickly considering the holiday season! Shaun who arrived to give us a little hand with the hot tub was a great help and sorted us right out which we really appreciated. Would highly recommend to anyone, kids loves the big garden and felt safe known it was a private road upto the house. Would stay again.

Perfect house for our large party of family and friends in Oxford for a family wedding. Stylish and comfortable, well appointed and handy location.

I have to come clean - I am an enthusiast of Penarth, the architecture of the town, the community feel, and everything about the place. Sarah's place, being among the oldest houses in the town, was a must for all the things I was looking for. Sarah herself is friendly and has clearly put a lot of herself into the house. My journey time to Penarth could have been subject to delays, being more than 500 miles... but we had good communication and met up without difficulty at the house. All in all, the house was cosy and well appointed. It also was a great base for strolling into Penarth Town centre and even, across the barrage, to Butetown and even Cardiff. I would thoroughly recommend Sara's house for your stay.

We had a fantastic stay here for my Mum's 70th birthday. Alasdair was really helpful and sent us a great welcome pack with lots of information via email before we arrived. James was there to greet us and get us settled on our first evening. The property is pristine and the amenities on the estate are fantastic. A great place for family to come together for a real luxury stay. We hope to return in the future!

We had the most incredible stay at Lower Mill Estate over New Year! Jamie and Jan made arrival check-in and check-out super easy. The property itself is well located, with breathtaking views of the lake that we could enjoy from both inside and out. The house had everything we needed and spacious, making it perfect for our group. The facilities on-site were excellent – from walking trails to the SPA, Gym, swimming pools, tennis courts and football pitches,!with other activities also available nearby, there was always something to do. We loved exploring the peaceful surroundings and walks to the pub, then returning to such a cozy and welcoming home base each evening. The location is ideal for anyone looking for a relaxing getaway in the heart of the Cotswolds. We couldn’t have asked for a better way to start the new year, and we’re already planning to return maybe in the summer this time! Highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a tranquil yet activity-filled retreat.

We had a wonderful stay as a family. Grandparents enjoyed relaxing, kids enjoyed using all the sports facilities and paddle boarding on the lake. The hot tub on the roof was fantastic and a nice bit of privacy. The information prior to arriving was brilliant and clear. We ate at Ballihoo (Juan was super nice!) and enjoyed drinks in the sunshine there most afternoons. Recommendations for food: We had a meal at Henry’s and it was incredible, and they were very accommodating for children as they don’t have a kids menu. We also had fish and chips from Malt&Anchor which was delicious. We loved the house and lower mill estate. Such a fantastic place! Thank you 😊

Great, clear and fast communication and a really lovely property. We had a great time.

10 of us stayed at this beautiful place for New Year (6 adults and 4 small children). We had the best time and absolutely loved the swimming pool and how spacious and clean the house was. Lucy was a great host and check in on us regularly although she was away herself. She alway responded quickly and was very helpful. We would love to return.

This is second time we’ve stayed on Lower Mill Estate as it has great onsite facilities, so nice not to go too far with the little ones. We did the Cotswold Wildlife Park, it is a 30 minute drive but well worth it. Also Emerald Thai in Cirencester was delicious. The house itself had everything as described on the listing, lovely views over the lake and was enough space downstairs for 10 adults and 4 little ones. Two of the double rooms are on smaller side so wouldn’t recommend if you need space for a few travel cots. On the first morning a few of us had cold showers as hot water wasn’t on, but we figured it out waited half an hour and all was ok. We reported this along with one of double bed had broken slats which wasn’t ideal, but appreciate nothing could be done at the time. The contact was very apologetic about this and it didn’t hinder our stay. Thank you

My boyfriend and I spent the weekend at the manor for a belated celebration of my birthday. We were immediately drawn to the various activities on offer and the location as it’s close to Bredon Hill. We were warmly welcomed by the family and shown to our beautifully decorated room, which overlooked the lake. As a lovely touch, we we’re even treated to some hand baked biscuits. All in all, our stay was very relaxing and we will definitely book again in the future
