Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Tyne and Wear

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.

What a smashing wee find, just what we wanted. The annex is well laid out and well equipped. The bedding was super quality [something important to me]. Easy to come and go and you park your car right outside the door. Worth noting there is a step down into the kitchen and bathroom which has a sensor light on it at night so not to much of a problem. We would happily stay here again.

I live local to Kim's Airbnb only staying there while I was having building work done and needed a pet friendly home for 1week Been a local and have walked past this street many time and have always wanted to see inside....did not disappoint...thanks again Kim .. fabulous x

lovely house,comfy beds. loved the under floor heating in the breakfast kitchen, everything you could possibly need supplied. very responsive host. Close to Newcastle for events etc

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.

Wowzers! Absolutely spectacular accommodation! Booked myself and 5 friends for a 40th Boozy and Boujee birthday and this place did not disappoint. Finished to an unbelievably high spec, the place was modern, spotlessly clean and very comfortable. I would say like home from home however I could only ever dream of having such a beautiful palace. Everything we needed was provided. Location superb and plenty bars and restaurants just a 5 minute walk away. Stunning views and the beach is just round the corner. We hit on lucky with weather and enjoyed a meal sat in the sunshine at Sambuccas then it was just a short ferry ride over to South Shields to go to the fairground. Raymond is a delightful host, super responsive and nothing was a bother. We couldn't get the TV to work so he sent someone round while we were out to fix it and even messaged to say he left some music on for when we got in. We 100% recommend Hilights View and we will be back again! Thanks Raymond, you are a star!

Without a doubt a great Airbnb. Everything from the initial booking to our departure was brilliant. No hesitation in recommending.

Kind, accommodating, generous host and an incredibly comfortable Airbnb. Super easy to get to Beamish on the bus from the location. Little touches from Bev like snacks or a cold Pepsi Max and water on arrival make the stay even better. Great water pressure and temperature, wonderful bed, fantastic oscillating fan, and the mini fridge was perfect. When we were struggling night 2 to get good wifi, Bev popped over with a Deco mesh extender which solved the issue.

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

I had a fantastic stay. The apartment was lovely and had everything you would need and more! Ben was very helpful and responsive. I would definitely stay here again. Thank you!

Wonderful stay, very much recommend. Brill location (we drove & parking was always easy & great for us to see family / get to the beach / the city with ease). Lovely touch Yvonne & Andrew leaving a small milk for us & some very nice cookies. Super kind. Beds were super comfy, lovely quiet area. We will be back.

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!

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.

Danielle’s flat was spotlessly clean, comfortable and has all the amenities you need. It’s near to the beautiful Northumberland park and local shops and resturant dare nearby. I would highly recommend a stay and would definitely return.

A smart, modern apartment, very well equipped, walkable to the local bars, pubs and shops. Cannot complain.

A lovely little flat, full of character. The clear instructions and photos made it easy to get in. We felt right at home and slept very well in the very comfortable bed. Thank you for having us Deb.

Abi’s place was in a great location overlooking the sea. The house was immaculate with high quality fixtures and fittings. It was very spacious and ideal for our family of 4 with one baby

Lovely clean and well presented accommodating including a well stocked biscuit tin. Kitchen was very clean and as was the rest of the flat and the flat and the walk-in shower/bathroom was very easy as was the shower, with great water pressure. Finally, all within a stones throw of a host of restaurants.

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.

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.

Thank you Lynn for a wonderful 4 days at your apartment. Bringing my mum and dad back to Sunderland after years away has been made so much nicer by having a perfect place to say. Communication has been excellent since the day I booked to the day you met us when we arrived. Seeing my parents smiles when we walked in told me I had made the right choice, you were so welcoming and the views from the living room are amazing, everything was fantastic and your advice on where to go for the football was perfect 👌🏻 Communication has been excellent and it was so good to meet you on our arrival, hopefully we will return in the near future as there are still many places to return to for more reminiscing.

Karen was a fantastic host. The apartment was perfect and just what I needed. It was so lovely and absolutely spotless. Karen couldn't have been more helpful and flexible at check in. The apartment block was lovely and quiet too! A perfect stay - thank you!
