Family-friendly holiday rentals in Utrecht

Fred and Kelly’s place is absolutely wonderful. We stayed because the price was better and there was a little more room than many places directly in the city. Though we looked forward to it, we didn’t expect to fall in love with it…and we did! Staying outside of the city is pretty great. It’s a 10ish minute walk to the train station, and then an easy navigation to wherever you need to go. We didn’t mind the “commute” a bit, and it was nice to start off and wind down in a quieter setting. The place itself is well kept, clean, and cozy. The beds were comfortable and the shower was hot with good pressure. We enjoyed casting Netflix on the TV with the fireplace on in the evenings, and we spent a couple of mornings in the garden. We booked this spot our entire stay, but also spent one night in Amsterdam to experience “city life,” and also spent one night in Utrecht. These were perfect additions to our home base plan. I’d definitely stay here again!

Really a nice stay, incredibly spacious, everything present, wonderfully covered outdoor place. The peace and accommodation ensure that you can relax wonderfully and refuel! Aljanneke is an enthusiastic and very cozy host!

Fabulous stay at Cottage Paulus What a great experience! The forest cottage "Paulus" is tastefully decorated and is located in a beautiful, quiet place in the middle of nature. Exactly what we needed to completely recharge. We were there with our two dogs, and they too had the time of their lives. The spacious, fully fenced garden was perfect – safe and large enough for endless snooping and scrambling around. Fareen, the hostess, is incredibly friendly and helpful. From the first contact, everything felt familiar and relaxed. She was quick to respond to questions and made us feel very welcome. Highly recommended for anyone who loves peace, nature and an animal-friendly place with character. We will definitely come back!

Wonderfull house. Supermarkets close by (5 minutes by car). Well equipped kitchen great living room and bedrooms. We used the sunny terrace a lot for breakfast and dinner. We would definitely rent the house again.

Had a great weekend. Enjoyed the nice garden with various seats and of course the wellness. Cottage really has all the comforts and the bed was very comfortable. Beautiful quiet area and a 20-30 minute drive from various nice cities. Joop and Thea are very friendly and are there for you immediately. In short, highly recommended!

Me and my friend had a very nice stay at Mijke's house. The hot pool and sauna were very nice and easy to warm up. The place was very clean and accurately described. We can only recommend it.

Perfect location, unique way to stay in the city. Would highly recommend. Very different experience, of course, than a home or hotel but this makes travel more fun. Being right on the "skinny" bridge was a fantastic experience. Great for people watching or just quickly being right in the middle of everything.

Lovely cottage with all the comforts. Very nice that basic things such as salt, pepper, oil, enough toilet paper and enough towels were also provided. It's definitely different at times! Furthermore, everything was clean and the communication was pleasant. Recommended!

Our stay with Mike & Patries will be forever memorable. They were both so kind and helpful, providing many local recommendations. Lovely people! The house is so beautifully decorated, cozy and warm. My children adored the animals on the farm including the horses, dogs, and chickens! We loved the area because really you can rent bikes and ride to many of the nearby towns. Our week here was just perfect and we can’t wait to return!

We had a lovely stay in Zaanse Schans at Tine's place. It was easy to find with her helpful instructions and even though not all the bikes worked right away, Tine fixed them all right then and there! Despite us not realizing check out was at 11am, she was super understanding when we left around 11:45am after one last bike ride to the windmills, which are 5 minutes away. Beautiful place, wonderful amenities and appliances, and comfortable beds!

Trienie is extremely hospitable, cozy and social. For example, the coffee was ready and we got good tips about the area. The cottage de libel is a little older but equipped with every comfort.

We stayed for a couple of days while visiting Amsterdam and Leiden - it was fantastic for the train and a real quiet cosy little place Kitty was a lovely host, she sent the most comprehensive directions I’ve ever gotten to find the place from the station and was super speedy to respond. Thanks for having us 😊

Great cottage, quiet, well furnished, beautiful terrace and not far from Rotterdam. I definitely recommend the place.

We had a wonderful stay at the accommodation in Zandvoort. The apartment was exactly as described and in the photos – clean, cozy and very welcoming. We felt comfortable right from the beginning. The location is just perfect – close to the beach, town and yet quiet. Annette was a great host: very friendly, easily accessible and with great tips for the area. We will definitely be happy to come back!

Cozy property, fully equipped kitchen, outdoor activities for children including trampoline and swing. The landlord showed us the pigs and let the kids come in and pet them and feed them, the kids really enjoyed it. Area close to tourist attractions, view from window to nearby windmills. We had a pleasant and comfortable time.

Great host, Nice point of contact, lots of materials available, shampoo, and cafepads and beach toys. Great for children, except for the stairs you have to be careful. We felt very comfortable. Nearby walking distance. Whether shopping, beach or dunes. What more could you ask for? Thank you so much for our short vacation trip at your place. 🙂

Great host and great place. Very special venue, extraordinarily peaceful and comfortable with beautiful surroundings explorable by boat. Thank you Erik for taking such great care of us and being so responsive.

We very much enjoyed our stay at Margriete’s place. It’s very peaceful and quiet - a perfect weekend getaway. Highly recommend coming in spring time when the cherry trees blossom. Lentekriebels guaranteed 🌸

We enjoyed our stay at Wendela's. We were warmly welcomed. The "Rosenhäuschen" was exactly what we had imagined. It was our home away from home. And we'll be back for sure.

Thank you Mara! We enjoyed the nice forest cottage, the surroundings and the masks you left for us! Exactly what we needed all three :)

Had a lovely weekend in this spacious home. All amenities are available. Also enjoyed the infrared sauna.

Kind host. Nice and original place to stay!

It’s a perfect place for a family with little kids, there’s a little playground just around the corner. The chalet has everything you might need for a short stay. It was very clean, towels and bed linnen provided, kitchen is fully equipped. Quiet surroundings. Really enjoyed our stay. Highly recommend it!

Such a beautiful, calm location. Fairly easy to get around and into Amsterdam and nearby towns, lovely base location and wonderful to come home to waterfront views and her beautiful gardens after a busy day. Clean, quiet and cozy, couldn’t ask for more! Magdalena and her husband are both very sweet. Lots of children’s toys and games which our kids loved. The stairs are quite narrow so might be something to lookout for with toddlers or younger children. She also served us a lovely breakfast which was great to start our days of exploring.
