Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Durham

We spoke to Janice a few times whilst we were at the cottage. Janice was lovely, extra friendly and very accommodating. We’ve visited previously and will be back very soon.

Gary’s place was ideal for our family getaway! We have a 2 years old and 1 year old and it was the ideal place to stay. Gary had gone above and beyond to accommodate us and ensured our sleep arrangements were thought of. He also was extremely generous in leaving lots of wonderful treats such as bread, snacks and milk. Gary was extremely responsive and friendly which made the stay even better. Gary’s place is right next to the beach and shops so a great location. It was also very clean and spacious! Would highly recommend.

Fantastic place to stay. A home from home. We had a fabulous stay and were blessed with amazing weather ☀️. Great location, walking distance to everything, beach, metro, coffee shops. No problems with parking. Rosemary is a proactive, responsive and friendly host. Definitely recommend and would gladly stay again.

Lovely spacious, clean and quiet house. Perfect for our family stay. Very comfy beds and well appointed kitchen. We were 5 adults and fitted us perfectly. Huge telly and nice sofa. Fast wifi and responsive host. Would defo stay here again and recommend both the lovely modern house and very responsive hosts.

Had a very comfortable stay and would recommend Lesley’s home to friends and family

Ellen’s place is ideal location - we travelled down for sky diving and a trip to Durham both a great distance from the Airbnb. Ellen was friendly and proactive and the space is clean and cosy - very homely. Definitely recommend.

Great location, around the corner from the Metro. Exceeded expectation as haven't used air BnB before. Hosts were helpful. A lovely place, highly recomend!

Huge house which was ideal for us. Great host who was happy to help. We didn’t spend much time there as visiting family In The area. Thank you Vicky.

Stayed in Clives flat to visit our daughter at uni and was ideal. Good location, lovely and clean, with secure parking, that was easily within walking distance of everything we wanted. My only issue was after Mrs Long had finished her shower, there was no water for me, so I had to go without till the following day, which really wasn't great.

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!

First of all, Jacinta is the best Abnb host we have ever encountered. 💜 This is an historic building full of character. It was welcoming and warm with everything we needed. Jacinta kept in touch to check out if things were ok which was so helpful. The house was cosy, beds comfy, great warm shower and a thoughtful welcome pack and fresh flowers. Thank you Jacinta.

We loved Ben's flat. It’s in a lovely area, equidistant between two Metro stations and an easy walk into the city centre. The flat was spotlessly clean and very well-equipped. Ben's communication was excellent throughout our stay. There is nothing to fault. We hope to be back.

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 !!

Dean's apartment was clean, comfy and just as described. The location was perfect for us visiting relatives in the area. The metro is a short walk which gave easy access to the city centre. We would recommend Dean's apartment.

I cannot state enough how friendly and accommodating Yvonne was! Great communication and amazing flat. Everything was spotlessly clean and so warm and comfortable, we felt right at home! Will definitely be returning to stay with these hosts! Thankyou so much ❤️

Nice and pleasant surroundings and coming to the property its very well maintained and highly recommended .

The flat and kitchen were very well equipped and spotlessly clean. Great location and very peaceful. Both Benjamin and Neil were very helpful and friendly. We would have no hesitation in making a return booking.

This was just the ticket for a seasides weekend away!! Can’t wait to go back!!

Absolutely great place to stay with 2 12 year old boys. Brilliant location and so much to do - Caroline gave us some fab recommendations. The flat was in a perfect location - close to the beach and loads of places to eat. The boys loved the bunk beds and I was impressed with the size of the rooms. Kitchen well equipped if you wanted to cook but we ate out for most meals. The bathroom is a wet room - so take crocs for using the toilet after a shower to avoid wet feet - this was not a problem for us at all and the shower was lovely and warm. Lots of little touches were great, biscuits and tea and coffee, toilet roll, cleaning products so if you arrived late no problem - also a shop over the road. Highly recommend as a lovely downstairs flat with parking near the sea - perfect.

Lovely place to stay. Very clean and tidy. Nice area and very quiet, garden and hot tub were very private. Has everything and more that we needed. Paid for decorations for birthday party and it was above expectations. Left a little treat for the dog too which was lovely. Would 100% recommend, and would go again.

First class . Superbly presented apartment, clean and tidy with stunning views overlooking the marina. Thanks for making our stay a special one , we couldn't fault it. Would definitely recommend this apartment to anyone, 100% . We will hopefully be returning soon .

I really enjoyed staying at the Esplanade apartment in Whitley Bay which was very handy for shops and services, pilus transport via the Metro, and great local restaurants. The apartment was comfortable for what I wanted for a few days, and the parking space was an added bonus. The level entry without stairs was ideal too for someone with mobility issues like me having had a new knee. I'd recommend the place and probably stay again,

Thank you, Lynn! Lovely views and super clean and tidy. Thank you for having us to stay and being so helpful.

My parents are just home from a three night stay at Cat’s place. They know the area very well and were delighted to be in such a fantastic location. The flat itself is beautiful and so spacious with plenty of space and everything you could need to feel right at home. Cat was so helpful and responded immediately to our messages. Thank you so much Cat … we will definitely be booking again.
