Our Awards

our award-winning escapes

Since 2015, our Darwin Escapes resorts have collected a vast range of accolades from Best in Britain to 5-star ratings and regional award titles too.

We are proud of our award-winning resorts and these achievements are a credit to all of our hard-working teams across the UK, who strive to set the standard in the holiday resort industry. Our aim at Darwin Escapes is to ensure our resorts are always in tip-top condition so we can offer a first-class experience and in turn give you peace of mind so you can love your escape.

The majority of our resorts have been assigned the Tripadvisor Certificate of Excellence and several of our resorts are also rated 5 Black Pennant by AA Hotel and Hospitality Services, meaning they’re of the highest standard with exceptional facilities.

All of our North Wales holiday resorts have been independently assessed and awarded a 5 star status by Visit Wales. In England, a number of our resorts have also been given 5-star status by Visit England, some of those resorts also boast Visit England Gold Awards.
