Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Newcastle upon Tyne

We had not been to the area before but were delighted with the accommodation and with Cullercoats. The cottage was stylish and luxurious, ticking all the boxes for a really comfortable bed, great shower, well-equipped, excellent kitchen and everything you needed for a short stay or a longer one. The upstairs ensuite bedroom had a lovely sea view and was really peaceful. The downstairs double room and separate bathroom were practical as we had family visiting. The neighbourhood was quiet and friendly and the location was superb - the cottage was minutes from the beach, a small supermarket and the Metro. You could walk from the door into Whitley Bay or Tynemouth. The beach was excellent and we swam in the sea. The coastal pathway between Whitley Bay and North Shields with its separate cycle lanes will be a wonderful asset and parts of it are already completed. We settled in really well and very quickly and were a bit sad to leave. Thank you to Vikki.

I have just had a perfect stay here, the property is ideal for Jesmond and Heaton, great for parents and friends visiting those living nearby. The house is new and well proportioned, it has all you need for a comfortable stay. It is light and airey, well decorated and spotlessly clean. Parking was plentiful, the road is a cul de sac so is much quieter. It is located near to pubs, resturants and bars and has shops all within 5 to 10 minute walk. The bed was really comfy, great kitchen and bathroom facilities. Nice touches such as games and books, netflix and freeview. The pool table was an added bonus, I stayed alone but still played pool and loved it, sadly I still managed to lose 2 games after potting the white with the black! 🫣. I would recommend the pool table house to anyone planning a trip to Newcastle.

This place is great if you don't mind riding the bus to town. I had a great stay and would recommend it. The bus stop is literally outside the front door and Aldi is just a few minutes walk.

great accomodation, with all the things needed for self catering, first place we've stayed where the bed was super comfy and in one piece, rather than singles pushed or zipped together. Right next to the town of north shields so food and travel was easy with a 20 min walk to the sea front. Colin was very easy to speak to, welcoming and warm, with photos of his photography around the living space. shower and toilets beautifully tiled and great shower pressure. The garden was small and cute but unused due to a rainy weekend. would happily stay again.

This house was beautifully renovated to a high modern standard. The kitchen was lovely and well stocked with everything you would need. There was a lovely decking area outside for eating and relaxing, weather permitting. A lovely view from upstairs bedroom, comfortable and welcoming space. We enjoyed our stay very much.

The flat met our needs well. Responsive communications. Self-check-in was easy. On street parking right outside with plenty of space.

Looked just like the photos. Splendid location and easy to locate. Very responsive host as well. Good moneys worth.

Had a great stay . House was very clean , bedrooms and bathrooms excellent. View over the mouth of the Tyne really good from the balconies . Would stay again.

Great accomodation, perfect for short break to see a show at Utilita Arena. Walking distance into the centre of town and walked back from the show at the arena. Lovely view across the river, and great walk along the river to bars and restaurants. Had everything needed in the accommodation and host was responsive and helpful.

Absolutely great place. Perfect location for a nice day out in ouseburn / a walk along the quayside. Spacious and airy apartment that is bigger than it looks in the pictures too! Would recommend for sure! X

Wonderful place to stay nearby to Hallington Mill for our friends wedding. Zoe was a fantastic host and was very welcoming. The property was clean with fantastic views, comfy bed, great bath/shower and everything we could’ve needed. Thank you!

We had a lovely stay at Will & Dawn’s place. They’re very friendly and helpful in providing all the instructions and information we needed ahead of our trip. Our children love playing (and feeding!) their rabbits & hamsters and the indoor heated swimming pool was simply a bonus to have when it’s raining outside. The place was very cosy & clean and it’s a great location to explore Northumberland!

Great weekend at a lovely apartment. very comfortable. quiet area. instructions very clear, easy access. would stay again

Really nice flat, ideal for a stay near Newcastle. Only a 20 min walk to Jesmond which has loads of nice bars & restaurants, and the metro station is only a 2 minute walk and 10mins into the city centre. The hosts are very responsive to questions and helpful.

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

I don't think I can add much to what others have said - it is a lovely, well equipped flat in a nice quiet area. I can see that parking might be a problem if you expect to park just outside the apartment but we don't have a car so it didn't concern us.

nice appartment in a great location close to stores and takeout options and close to major highways

A comfortable and homely place to stay for work in Newcastle. Close to a reliable bus route into town. Jen was friendly and thoughtful and we felt right at home. It's a place that's good value, unpretentious and feels like Airbnb used to be!

We booked this apartment at very short notice following a change in our plans. The hosts responded very quickly to make the property available for us and even allowed us flexibility with our check in. The Old Bakery exceeded our expectations and was perfect for our short break holiday being close to Cullercoats and Tynemouth centre and a great stretch of beach. Next time we are looking to stay in the area we will definitely be booking this again.

Had a great few days staying at Priya’s lovely home- exactly as described/looks on photos. Easy check-in, comfy beds, kitchen amenities-great location with lots of pubs, restaurants, shops and a local park within walking distance and only 10 min drive to Newcastle City Centre. Overall wonderful stay and great value for money, would 100% come back!

Booked as I was working in the area and bored of hotels. It made a few days working away bearable. The apartment was exactly as described, immaculately clean and modern. Once inside it's really private no noise, and very calm decor. Kathryn was really responsive and keen to ensure I was comfortable and all needs met. Will definitely be booking again when staying in the North East for work, a lovely home away from home.

Fintan's place is located in the attractive village of Ovingham and is very convenient for accessing places along the Tyne Valley as well as Hadrian's Wall. The bed and shower were both great and all essential needs are provided for.

A gorgeous, peaceful place to stay for a long weekend. The flat is beautifully furnished and decorated and has everything you need provided. Very close to Gosforth High Street, which has loads of restaurants and bars, as well as handy shops like Sainsburys and Boots. We had great meals at the Brandling Arms and Tremelo Cafe. There's also lots of bus connections into Newcastle and beyond, so very easy to get around the area. I wouldn't hesitate to book the flat again.

Delighted to say we have just enjoyed the most wonderful week at Julia’s flat. The bed is super comfy, the kitchen works and the sofa is perfect to lounge on after a long day walking and exploring. Everything is as lovely as seen in the photos. Pleased to say I can totally recommend Julia’s flat to anyone who has been meaning to visit Northumberland. It’s well worth the visit.
