Pet-friendly holiday rentals in Darwen

A beautiful private home. Furnishings combine the traditional with the modern - love the original beams. Very comfortable stay. Triple glazing helps to significantly reduce external noise. For those looking for lovely stay near Manchester, this location is ideal. Host was great!

Would definitely recommend a visit! It is a beautiful place to stay, with lots of character and charm! Rooms are surprisingly large with lots of natural light and beds were well rated among our group. Swedish hot tub was a firm favourite. Joe and Hannah were responsive, super friendly and provided a stellar pub recommendation just 10mins away. Perfect for family or friends getaway.

We had a great stay, and felt right at home in the cottage. Vicky was on hand if we ever needed her, and she even delivered some glasses back to us that we left behind. Highly recommend!

What can I say about this wonderfully quaint and quirky cottage that hasn't already been written? Probably nothing, but once you've picked your jaw up off the floor it's impossible to not be totally besotted by this hidden gem nestled in the heart of the English countryside, the pictures really don't do it justice. Our initial exploration of the spotless interior was way beyond our expectations, it's simply stunning and is the perfect blend of old and new. Everything we needed was provided and the comprehensive notes provided by Sue were more than adequate in providing clear directions and instructions for the various appliances, etc. Our stay surpassed our expectations in every way possible, if you've ever wanted to stay in an authentic cottage with a truly spectacular garden and doorstep access to to miles of public walkways look no further. Finally, a huge thinks to our wonderfully responsive host Sue for offering this property on Airbnb, very, very highly recommended.

Had a fantastic stay with my friend. Lovely house and quite quirky, which I love. Very thoughtful little touches, like butter and milk. The garden looked gorgeous but it rained so couldn't use it. Clean and tidy. The downstairs bedroom smelt damp, almost earthy, but that just added to the charm for me! It really was amazing!

We had a fantastic stay! The place was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. One of the highlights for us was the enclosed garden—it was perfect for our three dogs to run around safely and enjoy themselves. It gave us real peace of mind knowing they had space to play as a lot of places advertise the garden as enclosed but they rarely are. The home had everything we needed for a relaxing break, and the hosts were welcoming and responsive. Highly recommend for anyone traveling with pets or just looking for a peaceful getaway!

Super relaxing place to stay. It was lovely to be able to walk straight into such a beautifully presented place which offered us a respite from our house renovation. We liked it so much, we're staying another week! Thank you Michelle for all your support :)

One of the best stays we’ve ever had- and we had many!!!!

Ann's place is incredible- stayed for two nights and there is everything you could possibly need or anticipate in the house. We had a great time - the pool and hot tub were very clean and the house was perfect! Ann was extremely responsive and helpful. Would absolutely book again!

Wow - this was by far the best “hot tub” break we have been on and we have been on a few. The dome is so unique. You have the luxury of a full kitchen and bathroom, electricity and WIFI coupled with the secluded rustic countryside setting. There is so much open space around the dome with no one else around. The pond is amazing and we went paddle boarding/canoeing everyday using the equipment kindly provided. There is a wood burner in side the dome and a fire pit outside with plenty of wood supplied free of charge. I honestly cannot recommend this place enough!

Beautiful cottage set in wonderful grounds with a playhouse for the little ones. The pool was great too. Such a great place to stay, and under 10 minutes from Ashbourne. Around 30 mins to kid friendly hiking/walking in the Dales. Highly recommend.

The snug little pods are a perfect place to stay, overlooking open dales with sheep and cows, ducks swimming on pond right outside. Michiala could not have been more welcoming and helpful. we had all the peace and quiet we needed but she was always ready to assist as soon as we needed anything. Her cats and dogs were as friendly as Michaela herself. our neighbours in the other pod were super friendly too ..but with two bathrooms and a perfectly equipped little kitchen between us it never felt crowded. we loved being able to bring our own bedding because we don't like thick duvets, this meant we slept really well and felt absolutely at home.

Our third stay at the Shippon and our two autistic boys treat it like a home from home. So relaxing I didn’t want to leave. Our youngest loves water and animals so swimming, hot tub, fussing the lovely dogs, feeding Monty the horse carrots, all while being followed around by the chickens. He was in heaven! A great base for visiting family and lots to do nearby if we want to. This time we went to hoo farm, but we were generally all happy to stay at the Shippon. The Shippon is spotless and to cosy and comfortable. Our dogs love sitting on the patio watching the world go by and Newport dog park is literally a 5-10 minute walk and they love it. Thanks so much Sara and Phil, you are always so helpful and friendly. Can’t wait to come back!

Me and my partner went with the dog, we had one of the best times in this spot, really relaxing to be at the pod and then travelling around the villages was lots of fun. Was always nice to come back to the lovely pod! The kitchen had everything you needed as well

Fabulous location for anyone looking to stay in the peaceful countryside while still able to access a beautiful town. Lovely accommodation which is really spacious.

Absolutely beautiful location. We had a wonderful holiday and will definitely book again.

Lovely relaxing break. The cottage had everything we needed for a very enjoyable stay. Would definitely stay there again if we were visiting this area.

We had a wonderful stay here for 2 nights as we went to an event at the NEC. It is in a beautiful location with lots of animals to meet and we particularly enjoyed meeting Winston, Wallace and Wellington the pigs! Both Tina and Martin were extremely friendly and welcoming. It was spotless, cosy and had everything you needed for a comfortable stay. The xbox and boardgames were a great touch! We will definitely be returning and highly recommend!

The Parlor is out in the country. The atmosphere is peaceful. It is a drive to get to the flat and you will need a car to get to a restaurant. We loved the peaceful environment. The rooms are spacious and bright during the day. The kitchen is well stocked and we appreciated the charcoal grill to cook a meal on. We highly recommend.

We had a lovely, peaceful stay here. The lodge is surrounded by beautiful scenery and the hot tub was the best we’ve been in with gorgeous views of the sunset! Located in a really quiet area, we weren’t disturbed by any noise, but enjoyed being driving distance of local towns and places to visit. Thank you for making our stay so relaxing!

We had the most wonderful relaxing holiday. I had always wanted to stay in a converted church and it did not disappoint. Everything supplied was of quality and we had everything we could possibly need. Everything was clean and the bed was comfortable. The gardens are beautiful and spent a long time wandering through them, sitting in the chair swing and enjoying the peaceful surroundings. Sarah was lovely, very helpful and accommodating. I would happily go back and would recommend to any couple looking for peace and relaxation in a wonderful setting.

First of all the view from the Airbnb is amazing. The location is beautiful and incredibly peaceful. We opted for the hot tub experience and the wood fired tub did not disappoint! The property itself was extremely clean, very well looked after and perfectly as described. Ben and Kristina were great hosts, welcoming us on arrival and offering to provide anything we might need during our stay. Our dog also got to meet pumpkin (their dog) which was great! Added bonus of EV charging at the property too. Thanks a lot for a great stay, would highly recommend to anyone else!

We very much enjoyed our three day stay in Alice’s cottage. The cottage is airy and spacious and beautifully decorated. It’s quiet and peaceful with its own little garden. Lyneham Heath Farm has acres of land which afforded a delightful walk. We also visited the nearby Cotswold Wildlife Park which we very much enjoyed. Alice was quick to respond and very helpful. We would love to return and are happy to recommend to others.

Walkers Retreat is in the most quiet and peaceful spot, with walks straight from the door onto Bringsty Common and Brockhampton estate. Place was spotless and very comfortable! I particularly enjoyed the outside space, with lovely views from the patio and a great swing seat! Katie, Clive and Nellie were friendly, warm and welcoming. I honestly didn’t want to come home! Can’t recommend this air bnb enough, I’m sure this is one I’ll be visiting again! Absolutely perfect!
