  • "Our Family (6) Just had a wonderful relaxing week stay at "Darlington". What a beautifully renovated and decorated home, extremely clean and well appointed with ipod, dock, a great range of DVD's, games and books. The furnishings are of a very high standard and the kitchen has everything you need. Great location within walking distance to Spring Beach, Stapleton Beach and lovely walks along the foreshore. Private with fabulous views to Maria Island. Will definetly return! Congratulations Janice and Paul"

  • "Our family of 5 stayed at Darlington for a week. The house is beautiful and certainly has the 'WOW' factor! We were delighted with the view and proximity to the beaches and walking tracks. It was lovely sitting on the balcony with a wine, looking over the water. Kids toys/games/DVDs all supplied, which we weren't expecting! We had an amazing time staying in this 5-star property! We will definately be back for another visit -hopefully for a longer period of time! Thank-you very much for making our getaway so enjoyable!"

  • "Darlington is the kind of place you don't want to recommend...because you want to keep it for yourself ! An absolute gem. We spent 6 nights there and would have spent more if it was not fully booked. We will definetly come back one day for a longer stay. Merci beaucoup Janice and Paul -the owners- to share Darlington with us ! "
    Martine & Jean-Marc, January 2012
     
  • "We stayed at Darlington for 4 nights. The accomodation has the WOW factor. Very modern and clean with all the extra's that you don't expect to find in a holiday home. The location is fantastic with views of Maria Island and is situated in a quiet, tranquil area with abundant birdlife. My family from England also visited the home with us and they were very impressed. We rented the whole house and we had plenty of room(there were 7 of us). I fully recommend this holiday home to anyone and we hope to return again some day. "

  • "What an amazing place! Darlington has everything you could possibly want for some time away. Beautiful house, with amazing views, luxury furnishings & all the little extras you might need. Janice & Paul have thought of everything, from the pantry with all the extras to the ipod, games & dvds there is no reason to ever leave the house! We have stayed at a lot of places around Tasmania as we just love the area, but have now fallen in love with Spring beach and Darlington so our travels might stop there! We also can't thank Janice enough. She is the most lovely, easy going, helpful lady we have ever come across. Nothing is ever to much trouble for her & she is even helping us in our search for a block of land! Darlington is a gorgeous place definatley 10/10. I also have to mention how clean it was...We have never stayed somewhere so immaculate. Your cleaner needs to be comended, everything looks brand new. Well done guys :)"

  • "This property is a credit to the owners Janice and Paul Sutton, dealing with Janice was a pleasure!! Lovely lady, the home is very well appointed, clean and inviting, we had the most relaxed four night stay, everyone commented how relaxed I looked, we wanted for nothing, children's toys, dvd's, fishing rods, to plush linen even the pantry had every basic to get you started, you need to go and see to believe - you relax and it's like home!! I cannot speak highly enough of the property, the owners and Sherry the caretaker, we will certainly return, I have placed my comments on our Government bulletin board for everyone to know (just hope when we want to go again we don't miss out), GREAT."

  • "This amazing double story holiday house in Spring Beach was everything we could have ever wished for. The layout is perfect for two families plus children and the decor and furniture is ultra modern and most suitable for a comfortable and inviting get away in amongst the numerous reflections of a very kind Mother Nature. It was great "
    Neville and Faye, October 2011
     
  • "Darlington is a first class holiday home in a gorgeous location. It's warm and light with a magnificent view. It has everything you need for a relaxing holiday with children- open grassy areas for outdoor play, a large collection of DVD's and games and the beach is a 10min walk. A great place for a holiday."
    Janine, September 2011
     
  • "Darlington has everything, close to the beach, great views, quite location, clean, and has all the modern amenities you will need to enjoy your stay"
    Andrew, March 2011
     
  • "What can I say but wow. I rented this house over Christmas 2010 and I could not have asked for a more lovely place to spend the holiday. The owners have put a significant amount of time, thought and effort in setting up this property to ensure that it has every facility, convenience equipment that a guest could ask for. The attention to detail far and away excels most holiday rental properties and includes an extensive array of entertainment options (dvd collection, board games, music) as well as the best equipped kitchen I have encountered in a holiday rental property. This is a first class property in a lovely part of Tasmania. The rental price is incredibly reasonable given the location, size of the house and quality of the accommodation. In addition, the owners could not be more helpful or obliging in ensuring that their guests maximize their time in this beautiful space. "
