Vacation rentals with lake access in Northumberland

Great host very friendly definitely recommend the stay

The stay at Kimberleys property was hassle free, communicative and delivered on all fronts. Any enquiry was met immediately with a solution and even those were minor personal questions or preferences. The stay was a functional one being a base for a sports tournament but it was a pleasure to come back to and enjoy every moment - easily somewhere that could have been used as a holiday destination for far longer (and my family were disappointed not to be able stay longer) but unsurprising that this was already booked well in advance. Absolutely no criticism, this was a delightful stay that overdelivered on all fronts and will be a top search as soon as the next tournament dates are confirmed, if not before! Kimberley, thank you for looking after my family so well, it is appreciated (and by no means the norm as we travel a lot) and you should be very proud of the service you and your team deliver.

As a family of 4 including two tweens needing to get off their gadgets, we have LOVED this stay. The views and comfort of the house are phenomenal. As well as sightseeing, we made time just to chill at the house and enjoy time at the reservoir away from it all. This was made possible because the hosts have literally thought of everything and the layout of the house is brilliant for socialising together. The bedrooms are super comfy, the kitchen has everything and there are some nice perks like the log fire, underfloor heating and unbeatable views that just make the house so enjoyable to be in. We took mountain bikes and glad we did, there are endless well kept trails for walking and cycling right from the door and a great park for kids within a healthy walking distance. Communication and information provided were fab, and we will go back for sure!

We had a wonderful and restful stay. The location is perfect, remote enough to feel like a proper country get away but close to popular places like Holy Island and many beaches. The place is exactly like the photos, very nicely decorated, private with plenty of light and countryside views. Both double bedrooms have their own bathroom, comfy mattresses, and extra soft luxury linen. The single bedroom has no window or bathroom so bear that in mind if you need the extra room. But for two couples this is an ideal place. Kitchen has everything you need, lovely and open plan, a nice welcome hamper. Living room is comfy with Games, TV with netflix etc. Would happily stay again!

A lovely garden sanctuary. Beautiful grounds and host is agreeable to letting you roam around and enjoy the space. There are walking paths nearby and a great Indian restaurant. Place is very quiet. We had a lovely stay

Beautiful house with lovely decorations/ extra touches such as candles, cosy blankets etc. The log burner made the house feel cosy and there was plenty of logs provided. The kitchen/dining area was very well equiped with plenty of plates etc. There were also lots of extras provided such as washing up liquid, bin bags, tea, coffee, sugar etc. The only thing we needed to buy was some dishwasher tablets. The bathroom was probably the one area that wasn't 5 star as the hot tap handle kept falling off. The shower was also very noisy and leaked so this could only be used when everyone was awake (if you have any older members in your party they will probably need to use the ensuite shower as the shower in the bathroom is over the bathtub which has very high sides so is tricky to get in/ out of). Overall a beautiful house in a tranquil setting. Thank you.

We had a fabulous stay here and felt very at home. Everything you could want was available in the house. The kitchen was very well equipped and cleaning stuff available if needed. The neighbourhood was very quiet but near local amenities and sea front. I would highly recommend staying here if your visiting friends or family or looking for a getaway for a few days. The hosts were friendly and available if needed.

The house was gorgeous! Very clean and tidy. Exactly as described. We had a fab stay in the house. Kids loved playing on the playground, the surroundings were very peaceful and private.

What an amazing find! it is a beautiful little village next to a pub that serves excellent food, best mushroom risotto I have ever had! We walked up a nearby hill to Drakes stone and the view was great, we looked around the ruin castle in the village and did a walk by the river all without having to get in a car. Location was peaceful and quiet and our dog had the best time ever. I highly recommend this place, the cottage itself is spotless and has everything you need utensils and appliance wise. There is a small shop in the pub next door. Karen communicated really well and I would definitely stay here again. We also travelled to nearby places such as Craster, Alnwick, Rothbury and Kielder from here and although it is a little journey the scenery is well worth it.

We had a wonderful family break full of fantastic days out and chilled out evenings at the house. Everything was set for a great holiday by choosing this home which catered for everyone’s needs.

Wow what an amazing place to spend a relaxing few days, didn’t want to leave. Loved the walks around the lake woods and fields. Dogs are missing it already. So quiet, allowed us to chill out and get away from all other things. Perfect in so many ways.

A wonderful self contained studio apartment that’s immaculately clean and in a great location. You’re right on top of the derwent walk country park, the derwent river and Gibside. Deborah is wonderful to deal with and is always available to help. We’ve stayed next door many times and the this is a great add-on to the stable house, we normally put the mother-in-law in here!

We cannot reccomend a stay at capheaton estate highly enough. A beautiful cottage, with comfortable and luxurious finishing touches in incredibly peaceful surroundings, responsive and helpful hosts. Such a wonderful place to relax, away from the busy world, but close to some great pubs and within reach of key attractions. Would happily stay again.

We could not have asked for a better place to stay. Perfect position for us, quiet and out of the way but lots of walking and mountain biking right on the doorstep. The cottage is beautifully done, very clean and has more than enough facilities and equipment to cater for cooking etc. The hosts were brilliant and communication with them was very easy. We will definitely stay again. A fantastic property in the most beautiful of settings!

Aline did a fine job in presenting a very good flat, located in/above the cobbled stable courtyard. The space was quiet, private and thoroughly enjoyable…and we certainly would highly recommend it and may well return if we’re back in the area. Also, two bedrooms with what we call ‘king’-sized beds…very comfortable! Overall - Excellent!

Hands down the best equipped and most homely Airbnb we’ve stayed in. We just spent Xmas there, everything we needed to make a Xmas dinner (dishwasher an absolute bonus) and everything we needed to have a relaxing festive break that made us feel we were at home. House had decorations and a welcome basket which was lovely. Communication excellent throughout. Very generous with essentials like dishwasher tablets and coal for the fire. Beautiful garden (fenced in for our dog) great play room in the loft that the kids loved. Bedrooms comfy, linen lovely quality, lots of storage. Lots of areas to hang out with the family, play games, cook, watch tv and relax. Excellent location for Sunderland, Durham, Newcastle and all the area has to offer. The view to the beautiful river outside was just the icing on the cake, so lovely for dog walks. Can’t recommend enough
