Vacation rentals with a hot tub in County Durham

Easiest way to put it, it's a home away from home. Host is amazing and very responsive. Definitely coming back again!

Amazing host and amazing property!

We had an amazing stay. Spotlessly clean with quality furnishings and comfy beds. The location is beautiful and being enclosed is ideal for pets and children. We would love to stay again

We had a lovely time at Murton Farm. There were loads of games for the kids to play in the garden and they enjoyed exploring the huge house. Bedrooms were nice and big. There were plenty of spaces for everyone to spread out, but equally the living spaces were big enough with enough seating for everyone to gather at once and socialise. The hot-tub was a welcome treat after days out with the kids!

We had a great 3 night stay at The Anchorage. Everything was as described in the listing, and the (good) reviews were all very accurate. Lots of good communication prior to our visit. We would highly recommend!

Thank you Deb and Stuart for the most incredible 3 night stay in your absolutely stunning lodge. We were blown away from the minute we arrived, it has been just fabulous. Best hosts ever, decorating the lodge with balloons and banners for our 2 kids was so kind and thoughtful, as was the lovely welcome package and treats. We loved every second of our stay from enjoying the beautiful gardens and wildlife, to sitting in the hot tub under the stars, to enjoying trips out to the local towns. Especially Barnard castle and Glenridding in Ullswater. It is the perfect Home from home with all the supplies and Facilities you could need and lots of little extra touches that make the place so special. Stunning decor! Well kept gardens! Comfy beds! Games for fun and plenty of Info on the surrounding areas. Deb and Stuart are the most lovely, friendly people and have worked so hard on this place and must be very proud. We defo hope to be back soon. Highly recommend. Thanks a million! xx

Returned from a lovely 3 night stay in Lanchester. The cottage is beautifully decorated and has everything you need as well as being spotless. Our kids loved the huge hot tub and the games room with games for all ages and the recommendations provided by Emily did not disappoint. All in all a wonderful stay and would not hesitate to rebook if back in the area.

This is my second time at The Retreat in 2 weeks and we will definitely be back. Fantastic lodge, very clean and tidy. Lots of little nibbles as gifts from host which my daughter and niece loved. This stay went to the pool and sauna which was fantastic, free coffee, tea and biscuits when you come out which is a lovely little touch. Thank you for a fantastic stay xx

This place really took us by surprise. We drove 5.5 hours each way, just to visit and our biggest regret was not booking longer! Worth every bit of the money and drive. The place was private and peaceful. Very safe and secure and very quiet so you can really enjoy yourself. Really feels like you have the whole place and surrounding areas to yourself! Utensils and appliances wise you could see Jane has real care and attention to detail, everything you could need or think of was provided. And that too of high quality not just your budget items. The bbq was a proper bbq which was a joy to use. The hot tub come with lighting and jets. Even the pots and pans were tefal! A lot of time and money has gone into it all. Garden was well lit also for those late evenings. Was lovely to meet Ben also. So much more to say but we won’t ruin all the delightful surprises! Very happy with the stay and we will be back for sure. Thank you! And see you next time.

Fantastic accommodation in a beautiful part of the country. The cabin had everything we needed and was spotless clean. The hot tub was great and the option to add a sauna session is highly recommended, the views are amazing! The stay is perfect for relaxation. Anthony was very responsive and gave us some nice tips for local outings through their online guide. He also showed us how to operate the woodfire hot tub with the provided logs, which was very helpful. The only issue we had was how close the cabins were to each other. Our "neighbours" didn't abide by the rule of no outside music and played rave songs on loud, spoiling the advertised tranquility a bit but this was not the host's fault. We would definitely come again but will try to book a quieter time of the year or ask for a cabin at the very end of the site.

I would happily recommend this place, 10 out of 10 . Angus was so easy to communicate with and the place is so peaceful and beautiful. Very quiet. Was magical in the hot tub with the lights outside and the view. The place was immaculate and we thoroughly enjoyed it. The shower was powerful and the water was nice and hot and the central heating could be set to whatever temperature you want in the bedroom and the lounge separately. The drying room outside was genius. Great for our outerwear and boots which got wet at the beach when looking for seaglass.

This cabin is just beautiful! Allison is so responsive prior to and during your stay and Jonathan made the check-in so easy with clear instructions for the hot tub and excellent recommendations of local things to do 😊

Wonderful stay at ‘the hideaway’. Very very clean. Cannot fault at all. Super helpful hosts. Will definitely reccomend to friends and family. The access to the facilities at the spa is also a great extra, I don’t think the pictures on here actually do the pool / sauna area justice! Towels and robes provided also which just made everything easier. Thank you!

Absolutely beautiful clean place with lovely little welcome touches 😊
