Holiday rentals with a fireplace in Durham

Everything about Clare’s place was a wow - she had left a birthday card and bottle of wine for my friend and the cottage has everything you could need and more as well as being utterly spotless. Clare was super responsive and kept In contact throughout. Check in was so easy and she was flexible on check out as I had managed to book a work meeting for the exact check out time! The cottage is superbly located. Around 20mins from Beamish (highly recommend) and about 15mins from Durham (and a great Sainsburys and M&S - iykyk!). The cottage is beautifully finished with high quality fixtures and fittings. It’s peaceful despite being just set back from the road. The beds were so comfy and the master is huge! Everything was spotless from the kitchen to the bathroom and everything in between. The bathroom even has body wash etc and cotton buds in the bedroom - like a luxury hotel. Honestly could not recommend more. A very comfortable and enjoyable stay. I’d say a home from home but nicer!

Lovely accommodation, very clean and exactly as described. Stayed in the area for a wedding nearby and flexible key safe entrance was very helpful and easy to find! Thank you very much, would recommend

This was our first Airbnb experience and we have to say that the bar has been set very high. Our host Trevor was lovely, the area beautiful and interesting, and the accommodation excellent. There were plenty of great walks within an easy drive and it wasn’t overcrowded which made it all the more pleasant. Although the accommodation is great, it is worth being aware that the stairs to the bedroom may present challenges for some people, but if you think you can manage them, you will love this property. There are different options for heating, constant hot water and the kitchen has everything you need. The four legged neighbours are also friendly, if hungry; and my guide dog very much appreciated the lovely dog bed, fleecy blanket and flashing toy! Thank you so much Trevor, it would be lovely to be able to return in the future if we can manage it.

Fantastic place - one of the nicest we have ever stayed in. Immaculately presented and in a quiet farm location adjacent to some woodlands which were great for walking. Perfect for anyone seeking a relaxing and peaceful break. Jane was a fantastic host who responded quickly to our messages. The welcome pack and information supplied for visitors were excellent.

Very spacious, well decorated, comfy beds, lining and towels. The kitchen had everything you could possibly need. Very near Durham and lots of natural areas around. Donna was always very responsive and kind. Would definitely return!

Great stay. Everything was spotlessly clean, the beds were incredibly comfy and Jane was a great host and really helpful!

We had a lovely time. The house was very nice and well worth the money. There was lots to do around the area and further afield. Melanie was very helpful and responded immediately to any questions. An excellent place to stay to explore the North East!

Although not much to do in Bedlington itself , it was a great base for exploring Northumberland. It was a lovely cozy cottage. Tastefully decorated. comfortable bed. Enjoyed our stay

Very friendly and welcoming hosts. A really lovely little bothy in a beautiful spot. Perfect for a weekend break. We were breaking a journey north but it would be ideal for a few days walking or cycling. Thanks so much Marcelle and Alan and the dogs!

Wonderful hosts; friendly and responsive. Great location that was close to the main shops, pubs and restaurants in Hexam as well as for visiting Hadrian's Wall. Extremely well equipped and clean. Highly recommend.

Thank you for such a lovely stay. Your place is lovely and spacious and we all felt at home. We would be happy to come again.

Beautiful little hidden gem! A perfect stay whilst we attended a wedding at Middleton Lodge. The flat was well equipped, bed was super comfy and the towels were large and fluffy! I would deffinatley reccomend to others 😃😃. Thank you Fiona!

Absolutely loved my stay here! The place is beautifully decorated with so much character—stylish, comfortable, and full of thoughtful touches that made it feel like home. The setting was perfect too—peaceful, charming, and a great base for exploring the area. What really made the experience stand out were the hosts. Super friendly and welcoming, with incredible local knowledge that totally upgraded my trip. From hidden gems to the best spots to eat and explore, their tips made all the difference. Can’t recommend this place enough—already looking forward to coming back!

Linda's apartment was just perfect for our stay. Absolutely spotless, everything you could possibly want was available. Great location, 5 minute walk to the Metro then just 3 stops into the city centre or a little bit longer to the coast. Linda was lovely, very welcoming with great communication. Absolutely 5*. Thanks Linda x

Chris's apartment is very comfy and clean and perfectly placed for exploring Teesdale, Weardale, Barnard Castle and the local area. Chris offered lots of useful recommendations and was a helpful and friendly host. Would definitely recommend this apartment.

Beautiful quiet location. Great facilities. Very clean and well presented home.
