All our 33 bedrooms are individual and quirky and come with modern home comforts including free Wi-Fi, luxury bedding, tea and coffee-making facilities and flat-screen TVs with satellite channels. Many rooms also have stunning views of the river and gardens, while our superior rooms have a seating area for extra comfort.

Darlington is well known for its rail heritage, so if you’re looking for things to do and see while you’re here, don’t miss the Darlington Brick Train Sculpture and Locomotion railway museum, which has events and interactive exhibitions for all the family. Other top attractions in the region include Raby Castle and Bowes Museum, home to a weird and wonderful collection of artefacts, most notably a silver swan musical automaton.
