Vacation rentals with outdoor seating in Durham

The house is spacious and the garden is lovely. We stayed with two toddlers and they loved being able to play safely in the garden while we cooked in the kitchen. Rosaline was welcoming and quick to communicate. Thank you for letting us stay x

Amanda was a lovely host. She was very responsive and helpful when we messaged. The house is deceptively big and there's plenty of room to chill and get ready for busy days. It is very well stocked with plenty of kitchen equipment for if you decide to cook at home. The beds are all doubles and they're very comfy with tonnes of blankets to keep extra cosy if you like! The area is nice with a big beach. We did find that there isn't a great lot to do, so we found ourselves driving quite a lot but if you're a walker, it would be perfect with all the coastal paths. Diamond pizza is a fab place to get a quick bite after a long day so we would definitely recommend there if you're a fan of a mucky tea! If you're wanting to explore the Northumberland coast and find yourself in Bamburgh, we would definitely recommend Creel and Reel seafood trailer for som delicious locally sourced seafood! All in all we have had a wonderful stay with our dogs and found Amanda's place the perfect getaway!

This was our third stay at Louise and Andy’s place and once again it did not disappoint. We find it to be a perfect place for a cosy stay, and very convenient to get to Stockton town centre. The place is clean and tidy with everything you could need for a brief stop over. Great communication from the hosts - 5 stars.

Ideal hub for myself and kids. Very comfortable, excellent kitchen and fast broadband. Would have preferred a better parking spot as I have a large car and needed to mount full kerb to access parking. I didn’t fancy parking on street as it was adjacent to small junction. Just something to note. Aside from that, very happy. Thank you very much

Peaceful quiet location. Near train station. Clean . Generally well equipped, although a few bits of cutlery and crockery missing but nothing major. Comfortable beds, pillows not to my personal preference as very hard, but overall an excellent stay and I would not hesitate to stay again and would recommend.

Excellent value for money . Lovely decor, good parking, quiet location . Spacious and immaculately clean . Well maintained private garden . . Good internet connection. Large selection of tea/coffee available, cereals, toiletries and more. Good selection of take aways restaurant and local shops within walking distance . ASDA and petrol station . Slept well . Bath and shower in large spacious bathroom. Honestly couldn’t have asked for more . Thank you so much for your hospitality Will definitely be returning

This is a good place to stay for groups of 3 or 4, travelling by car and planning to visit both the city and the beautiful countryside of Durham County. We went both to both up Weardale to the foothills of the Pennines and to the coast at Seaham on our day trip. This row-house cottage is nice, comfortable with an efficient central heating system. The kitchen/dining room is well equipped. Anthony left us both cows and Oat milk, which was nice. The only downside is that the the tiled floors are cold, if you don't have thick socks or slippers/indoor shoes with thicker soles than the hotel slip-ons that the hosts provide. Also the local pub is a bit further away than we'd assumed and is under new management and no longer serving food. However, Anthony told us about two alternate pubs offering evening meals. The most impressive was The New Board Inn at Hill Top (DH7-(9RL), which has a great Sunday evening quiz.

We had a wonderful stay! The accommodation was great and exactly what we needed, our host was incredibly helpful and responsive to any questions we had.

We enjoyed a lovely 2 night stay in this cosy upstairs flat with beautiful views over Wensleydale valley. Spotlessly clean and tidy throughout. Would happily recommend to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway. Penny is a fabulous host, who made us feel very welcome.

Lovely property in a delightful area. Metro only 50 yards away one way, Beach 50 yards away the other. Lisa very helpful.

We stayed in this peaceful and spacious flat due to having renovations going on at our property which didn’t quite go to plan. The time we did spend in wylam was great, some lovely walks for our dog 🐶 😊Everything we needed and great for my son to work from 👍Would be more than happy to stay again

Marie and Peter were wonderful hosts—responsive, incredibly friendly, and very helpful. The location was absolutely perfect for my needs, making my stay really convenient. I truly appreciated their hospitality and would happily stay again when visiting my daughter.

Lovely apartment - immaculate and warm - with everything I needed for my short stay. Visiting family who live in Ryton, so very convenient. Very friendly hosts. Would definitely recommend.

We had a lovely time. It was like a home from home. Emma couldn't do enough for us. The bed was really comfortable and there were plenty of enticing cafes and restaurants in Bishop Auckland.

Wow, what a great place to stay, my wife and I have just had two perfect, peaceful and relaxing nights in this annex attached to Fiona's property .From the initial booking to us leaving Fiona has been so helpful in her prompt response to any questions raised.The property itself and the ground's it sits in are absolutely stunning, all the amenities listed in the description are there for you to enjoy, great having the family chicken's and sheep wandering in front of your Windows and of course the family dog's ( only unfortunate for us the chicken's were not in egg laying mood) Couldn't recommend this property enough and we would definitely return.....oops forgot to mention the home made scones on arrival... Delicious.. Keep up the good work Fiona and hopefully see you again Frank and Sue x

Last minute decision to have a night away and Toms place was spot on! Perfect peaceful location, the annexe is gorgeous with everything we could need. The hot tub was dreamy even in the drizzle as the sun went down over the fields. Tom was a great host firing up the hot tub for us and recommending the fabulous Crown Inn for a great dinner! Thank you!

Always lovely to stay at The Old Library! Debbie is a lovely, helpful host. The super duvet and blankets were also appreciated in this cold weather!

Beautifully furnished apartment. Spacious rooms and great view of the bay from the lounge and bedroom. Well-equipped kitchen.

Amazing place, very convenient and close to everything. Lots to do for the kids within walking distance. Place was very clean. Beds were comfortable. Highly recommended

Absolutely loved our stay. Place was just as described. Loved the hot tub. Spacious, bright, modern space - highly recommend for a girls trip!

The apartment is on a quiet street, just a couple of minutes walk away from the seafront and situated between Cullercoats and Tynemouth village which are both within easy walking distance. Lisa and Gavin were excellent hosts, providing lots of clear information and tips, and always very responsive. Check-in was easy. The flat looks just like the pictures and is well-equipped. We had a lovely weekend in Tynemouth, would definitely recommend!

Fabulous apartment with beautiful sea views. Fantastic communication with our very welcoming host. We arrived to lots of special touches which helped us to feel at home from the start! Very comfortable accommodation. Private parking was a bonus. Would definitely book again!

We had a great 3 night stay, to celebrate a late Christmas with my parents who live in Blyth. The apartment is gorgous, so well decorated and furnished. There was a lovely Christmas tree to greet us too. We arrived around 9.30 pm, found the key in the front lockbox and unloaded up the front stairs. Overall its a great place to stay, the only thing that would stop us staying again is our elderly dog (he's 15) is a bit too doddery for the stairs. The baby gate was a great feature, and meant we had no worries about him going down on his own. The internal stairs lead to the front door just over the road from an amazing park which was perfect for the dogs. Kids would love it too, I grew up in Blyth, such happy memories of Ridley Park!

Michael was incredibly helpful and responsive. We had two changes to our itinerary and he was incredibly open and helpful to accommodate us. I'm hopeful to stay here next year.
