Cottage vacation rentals in Sunderland

Lovely house, Courtney is friendly and super quick at replying to any questions. Awesome location and we’ve all said we’d happily book to stay again when visiting Newcastle x

Lovely quite place to stay? Friendly host and nice welcome pack on arrival. Comfortable couch and bed. Very spacious downstairs and wheelchair friendly. The vents can be a bit noisy when the wind gets up. Very little light pollution in some directions if you are into star gazing. The drive is spacious .

I absolutely loved our stay at Barnacre Alpacas, we stayed in the rose cottage, it was very clean and the hot tub was a bonus. We enjoyed the alpaca walk and talk, that was something I’ll never forget! On arrival the cottage was dressed up for a birthday surprise and champagne and chocolates was left for us. Thank you to Paul and Debbie, we will be back!

Ivy Cottage is a gem 💎. Jane is a great host, great communication and flexibility. The cottage is spacious with a homely feel. We loved all the fairy lights outside, it looked very magical. Great place to have a family get together. The hot tub and games room are fantastic. We loved the small touches around the house, including the towels, bathrobes and crocs for the hot tub. The welcome package also a lovely touch, included eggs from Jane's hens, which made tasty scrambled eggs. The location is a great base and lots of places nearby. The cottage is also great if you just want to stay put and chill, you have everything you need.

Four of us have just spent 3 nights in Peewit Cottage. From the moment we arrived, we all felt right at home, the place was spotless, beds very comfortable too! Everything you could possibly need for a self catering stay was provided. Having the private hot tub was fabulous, we loved it after full days of being tourists in the local area. On a separate note, we would highly recommend a visit to Beamish Museum which was about a 30 min drive, we also spent a day in Durham City & booked a 2.5 hr History/City Tour with walkaboutdurham - highly recommended. Tour Guide Peter is very knowledgeable & so passionate about his job plus he gives everyone a "free" cocktail voucher for Turtle Bay - well deserved after 2.5hrs walking around the City 🤣🤣

We had a wonderful stay. The cottage was perfect for us the hot tub, games room and outside kitchen made it extra special. We had a lovely relaxing weekend. The cottage was very well equipped and had the most amazing views.

Excellent we enjoyed it very much. We definitely will be back. Highly recommended.

Great stay in a characterful home, in the perfect spot for enjoying Great Ayton, Whitby and Staithes.

Our second visit to this wonderful peaceful venue. Everything was as we remembered it. Caroline is very friendly and welcoming. We will be back.

Lovely cottage in ideal location with walking distance to the beach. Very clean and tastefully decorated. Kitchen was very well equipped. Extremely comfortable bed so that was a bonus. Nick is a great host and responds quickly. I will definitely be back when I'm next on the area.

Great little traditional cottage in a rural location but within driving distance to major towns. Greeted by a gated front garden with lovely flowering plants. Kitchen / diner and a lounge on the ground floor with two en-suite bedrooms upstairs. Enclosed, secure yard to the rear. Highly recommend and will be back in the future.

This was our second visit to the cottage which is by far our favourite Airbnb property that we've stayed in. It's a lovely property, has everything you could need, extremely clean and very homely. Ideal location for visiting Durham, close to large supermarket as well as local shops in the village. Would recommend to anyone needing a place to stay in the area.

What can I say... Absolutely fantastic place. You couldn't ask for anything more. Really peaceful location with fantastic views of the hills etc. We had a strange issue but this was sorted out very swiftly by Malcolm 👍 We will definitely be looking to book again and have another peaceful time just watching the world go by. Thanks Bob & Chris

This was one of the nicest places we have stayed in very many years. Carol was a delight and the cottage had everything one could want. I was impressed by the number of books available, it was a joy.

Great location for exploring Northumberland, Roman sites near by and located near Corbridge for access to local eateries, pubs etc. Accommodation was very clean, access was easy and host (Vanessa) was very responsive to any queries we had before travel. Accommodation layout may not suit every party but was great for our family group - recommended

Abbey Hill Cottages to high above W. Hartlepool. They are well equipped.Beds are comfortable and so is sitting room furniture. Plenty of hot water. Good shower.Lots of space. I would stay again.

Lovely Airbnb, centrally located in Bishop Aukland, and walkable to Kynren. We made good use of the Aukland pass that was included to visit the castle.

Could have holed myself up there for months. Perfect cottage with everything you could possibly need. Thank you!!

We stayed for a friend’s birthday and it was a lovely cottage in the most perfect location. The place was lovely and peaceful on a night time. We had lovely walks on the beach, visited the market and shopping area and had a lovely meal at Riley’s Fish Shack. The cottage was in walking distance to everything. Just perfect from start to finish.

We (2 adults + 2 children) stayed at High Pastures cottage from 14 Nov - 21 Dec 2024 whilst waiting for our onward house purchase to complete. From the outset Peter was responsive and flexible with our changing itinerary which was much appreciated. The cottage was exactly what we needed - the kitchen has all the modern accessories you'd expect and the living room was spacious and always warm despite being in rural surroundings over the winter. The views from the cottage are breath taking and there are some great walks from the cottage right into the middle of beautiful countryside. Within a couple of minutes drive there are great pubs and restaurants. 20 mins drive east you have Newcastle and 20 mins drive west you have Hexham. We were able to continuing living our lives as normal (my wife and I commuting to work - Newcastle and Sunderland) and the children continuing at their schools. We're hugely grateful to Peter and his wife for making this possible for us. Thank you!

we were extremely happy with cottage, very beautiful and very well equipped. we loved our stay and would recommend to everyone if you are considering a visit to this area this is the place to stay. well done Sue keep up the great work

Have just spent 4 nights at Elmhurst. Beautiful, traditional cottage with all of the home comforts. Wood burner, well stocked with logs. Very well equipped cottage. Chris really is the best. Highly recommended.
