Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Northumberland

First Cottage was a wonderful place to stay. Great location (very quiet), clean, everything you could need and very homely. Janice was a great host and all instructions were clear. Great holiday, good value for money and would definitely recommend. Melanie.

Thanks for a great stay Lindsey and Gail! This cute little house has a great location in Amble on a quiet street, that's just a 5 minute walk to the main shopping street and 10 mins from the harbour. Our stand outs were the very comfy bed in the main bedroom and the amazing shower! The house also heats up fast, as we found after arriving on a chilly day, and there was always a parking space for us on the street :) It was all spotlessly clean. This is a great base for exploring the beautiful Northumberland coast!

The house was spotless with plenty of room downstairs for us. The main bedroom was large and lovely with an ensuite shower/ toilet. The other 2 bedrooms were smaller but perfect for our needs. All beds were very comfy. The kitchen/diner was VERY well stocked with everything thing we could have needed. Lovely welcome basket with fresh bread and milk with some goodies too and a fresh bag of coffee. Lots of little thoughtful extras, like books, games, doggy items, beach towels and a fab record player! We loved sitting in the garden in the morning and evening. Hardly noticed there were neighbours as it was very peaceful despite being a residential area. We loved our stay and if back in the area would definitely stay again. Thanks to our friendly host, Gary.

Perfect for what we wanted working away from home and communicating was very easy and fast

Amanda was a lovely host. She was very responsive and helpful when we messaged. The house is deceptively big and there's plenty of room to chill and get ready for busy days. It is very well stocked with plenty of kitchen equipment for if you decide to cook at home. The beds are all doubles and they're very comfy with tonnes of blankets to keep extra cosy if you like! The area is nice with a big beach. We did find that there isn't a great lot to do, so we found ourselves driving quite a lot but if you're a walker, it would be perfect with all the coastal paths. Diamond pizza is a fab place to get a quick bite after a long day so we would definitely recommend there if you're a fan of a mucky tea! If you're wanting to explore the Northumberland coast and find yourself in Bamburgh, we would definitely recommend Creel and Reel seafood trailer for som delicious locally sourced seafood! All in all we have had a wonderful stay with our dogs and found Amanda's place the perfect getaway!

Lovely house in a great location to explore the Northumberland coast. Very clean and comfortable, would definitely recommend and return!

This was a great find, just 10 minutes drive from both Corbidge and Hexam, and within easy driving of Newcastle. Quite remote, and all the better for it, with stunning views across the Tyne Valley. Ideally placed for anyone who wants to ex-lore the North Pennines and Hardrians Wall. Marion with great to deal with, she lives next door and paid a quick visit when we checked in to make sure that everything was okay (it was). The house is in a very quiet location and has a great garden for sitting out in and taking in the views. We would definitely go back again

Well appointed house in a perfect location for exploring the town and Northumberland. Very helful host, clear instructions and good communication throughout. We had a wonderful time. Thank you

Booked Sammy’s place originally for my parents but unfortunately due to ill-health there were unable to make the journey up from Manchester however, I was delighted when my sister said that she was available. Sammy’s place is a hidden gem. I personally live in Hexham and cannot recommend Ian & Susan’s beautiful Accommodation any stronger than this, ‘Quite simply, the best accommodation in Hexham’. The location is perfect to get around the town, especially if you have difficulty walking as it is literally situated a stones through from the high street. There is plenty to do in Hexham being spoilt for choice when it comes to local Independant shops, a theatre, cinema, multiple pubs, bars and restaurants as well as the gorgeous Sele Park and surrounding area. Sammy’s place is a great place to stay with everything you need to feel completely at home; love this place and Susan & Ian are the perfect hosts. Thank you for making my sisters visit to Hexham a memorable one, Warm Regards

We had a lovely time the place was perfect for what we needed and a lovely walk to st James park Thanks for letting us stay

This was my third stay at Ben’s flat for a short, work-related trip. The flat was extremely clean as usual, cosy as described, 20 min away on foot from Newcastle University where I work, very close to HayMarket and the city centre, which is perfect for me. Ben is always helpful and friendly. I would heartily recommend the flat for a single person or a couple !

Niel‘s place was great, a secure and quiet location and Niel and Karen were friendly and helpful hosts. The apartment was perfect for the two of us for a short visit. Would definitely recommend.

Dawn is a lovely host with a beautiful, warm, cosy and clean home. The garden and pets are just adorable. We had a wonderful break and made good use of the pool. There are so many castles and beautiful gardens located a short drive away. Great place for families. I will be recommending this flat and hosts to my friends.

Great stay, close to metro station and bus links. Property was clean and well-maintained

Had a lovely few days, we found everything to be great. We felt very comfortable and we loved exploring Northumberland.

Keith's place is a great location for anyone wants to eat, drink and visit any of the attractions within Alnwick. The flat was clean and well equipped for anything one might need. Thank you for a fantastic stay.

We have stayed in many Airbnb properties but this has been out favourite. Spotlessly clean, beautiful apartment with plenty of space and a secure outside area to sit in. Everything we needed for a 5 day stay and the extras in the welcome pack were really appreciated. Lovely part of the coastal path and plenty of places to visit. Would recommend a walk to St Mary's lighthouse to see the seals. Good local pubs including the Waterford Arms where dogs are allowed in if you want to eat there. Felt at home straight away and will certainly be coming back. Thank you Benjamin.

Great comms from the host. Its worth noting that the property has many stairs, should that pose an issue for your booking. That being said, the property and the surroundings were superb We will return next year

We had the most wonderful memorable stay at Leaholme cottages. Lynn was an amazing host, nothing was too much trouble and she went above and beyond helping with our requests for extras in the cottage . We were so grateful to check in early too. The cottage is beautiful, tastefully decorated but so welcoming, spotless and homely. Location was fantastic, we would recommend this beautiful pad to all our friends and family and will definitely be back, we thoroughy recommend. Thank you Lynn

Diane was lovely, so helpful from showing us around to the very detailed instructions on all the facilities. Always on hand if needed and nothing was too much trouble. The cottage is comfy and has everything you need. Loved the finishing touches and welcome pack which included dog treats. The beach, coastal trails and country park are a short walk away making it a perfect location for a relaxing holiday. Can’t wait to return

The apartment is in a very good location with convenience stores, restaurants and bars literally on the doorstep. The apartment was also very clean and spacious and surprisingly quiet given its location under the Tyne Bridge and with all the bars nearby. It is an easy walk up into the town so would definitely recommend for a stay in Newcastle. A shout-out for the little cafe literally opposite the apartment called Quay Ingredient run by a lovely lady who provides delicious breakfasts and brunches.

We had a great time, it is a 5 min walk to the beach, we had a great day walking along the coast and some great runs with the dog. A day out in Alnwick was a nice 20 min drive, dinner out in Walkworth was a nice 50 min evening stroll. Altogether a great, very good value stay!

We enjoyed our stay at Cat’s place very much. We were a party of 4 adults who wanted a quiet spot to retreat to after a days sightseeing. It fitted the bill perfectly. It is located on a beautiful leafy road just a short walk away from the High Street which has a good range of shops, restaurants, cafes and pubs. It’s easy to get into Newcastle Center on the bus, or to visit the coast on the Metro. The flat has a very comfortable home from home feel. It was spotless when we arrived and had everything we needed . We would definitely book in again if we were visiting the area.

We had a great 3 night stay, to celebrate a late Christmas with my parents who live in Blyth. The apartment is gorgous, so well decorated and furnished. There was a lovely Christmas tree to greet us too. We arrived around 9.30 pm, found the key in the front lockbox and unloaded up the front stairs. Overall its a great place to stay, the only thing that would stop us staying again is our elderly dog (he's 15) is a bit too doddery for the stairs. The baby gate was a great feature, and meant we had no worries about him going down on his own. The internal stairs lead to the front door just over the road from an amazing park which was perfect for the dogs. Kids would love it too, I grew up in Blyth, such happy memories of Ridley Park!
