Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Metropolitan Borough of Gateshead

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.

Stayed for three nights at Rosemary's place and would not hesitate to stay again or recommend to others. Excellent communication, lovely house and a perfect location. My son slept well in the pull out bed and he really enjoyed playing with the table football. Thank you!

My family and I really enjoyed staying at Jamie’s place. It was perfect for celebrating our newly graduated paratrooper… everything we needed was within reach and the property itself was beautiful…. 🤩🤩could not fault it.. 🥰

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!

Stayed for 1 night in advance of a university open day. All good for what we needed - easy parking, straight forward drive to the university, helpful host. Thanks very much.

An absolute gem in beautiful surroundings! The cottage is spotless, cosy and fabulously stocked - and feels so homely it’s wonderful. Marion and John are lovely hosts and are right nearby but ensure your privacy too. Thank you so much! Can’t wait to come back again :)

I was comfortable and felt safe in Ellen's house. Easy street parking. No outside noise nice and peaceful. Everything you need in an Airbnb. Excellent communication from Ellen she couldn't do enough. I'd book again for sure.

A comfortable house, with everything working as it should. Very convenient for all central Durham locations if you have a car.

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

We had such a great stay! The location is perfect with a mall across the street and lots of restaurants and shops. The host was very responsive which was nice because we got in later at night. The place was extremely clean which is super nice when on the road! I would definitely recommend!

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 !

Excellent value for money, perhaps not in the greatest area but there was no trouble. It’s a flat so not exactly total silence from the neighbours but it was peaceful at night. Good place, would stay again.

Well appointed flat in a great location with free parking- few minutes walk from Durham centre. Spacious, light.

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.

Had a great 2 night stay just me and my pooch Beryl, right on the beach, I took my camera and got some great shots on from the attic window, lovely beach walks and great food at granny Annie's where dogs are very welcome, will definitely stay again !!

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

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.

Fantastic location for a weekend with a 16month old. Spacious bedroom, good quality cot, comfortable living room, well equipped kitchen. Short walk through a nice park with a kids playground and small boating lake, to get to the large sandy beach and the start of a coastal walk. We had no car and manged this trip from London, getting a nice coastal bus to and from Sunderland to the place and a bus back from our coastal walk.

Such a perfect property for a getaway in Newcastle. We thank Kristopher so much for the stay! The house was gorgeous and spotless, nice and modern with a private garden and hottub. It's on a lovely street and we walked straight into the city centre from here. Check in instructions were clear. We'd absolutely stay here again instead of a hotel next time we visit ❤️

what a fantastic place to stay. immaculately clean, everything we needed, plus extra touches. great host, very quick to respond, went over and above to ensure our stay was perfect x

Fabulous apartment with beautiful sea views. Fantastic communication with our very welcoming host. We arrived to lots of special touches which helped us to feel at home from the start! Very comfortable accommodation. Private parking was a bonus. Would definitely book again!

This is our third or fourth time staying here. It was great as always. Thanks again.

Fabulous well equipped apartment, clean and comfortable too. Loved the location over looking the marina with so much within a 10 min walk from supermarkets, clothing stores, and a great choice of restaurants yet very quiet indeed. Very responsive and helpful host.

Lovely apartment in a quiet street in the heart of Whitley Bay. The apartment was equipped with everything you need for a stay - also lovely shower and bath. Excellent eateries, shops, and of course, the beach were all within easy walking distance. Our host Helen was absolutely lovely - friendly and approachable, but non interfering, and her communication was clear, friendly and informative. We will certainly book Helen's accommodation again when we visit our family in the area, and will recommend it to other family members and friends.
