Kid-friendly vacation rentals in British Isles

Our family of 7 stayed here for one night while we visited the Warner Brothers tour. The house was staged perfectly to get families excited for Harry Potter. The house was full of Harry Potter decor, linens, costumes, knick knacks, and games. We all loved it. the backyard had a great space for hanging out as well. The parking space in the backyard is greatly appreciated. We were able to fit our Mercedes v series 300D in it and that was such a relief to not have to find street parking.

Clean and comfortable. Completely renovated kitchen. We had a lovely sunset walk on the beach. We used taxis and recommend having a car. Spectacular location right on the beach. The caravan park was very well kept and check-in was a breeze. We would stay again and highly recommend Julie's wonderful sea cabin.

We have had a lovely stay at the boathouse which was just amazing! The boat house its self is beautiful, clean and comfortable with the most comfortable bed I have ever slept in! It is very well equipt, plenty of towels, blankets and even robes. We loved the hot tub with views over the lake. The location of the boathouse was just perfect for us and the views were stunning! We took our own paddle boards and was so happy to be able to launch straight from the jetty to explore the lake. My daughter also loved feeding the ducks from the jetty. We have had a busy few days on local bike trails, hikes, paddle boarding, boating and having some lovely meals out in beautiful Bowness, but always looked forward to returning to the boathouse! We will definitely be returning! Thank you

Michaels place was absolutely incredible.. the house, the views and everything in between! We couldn’t have asked for a better spot to stay. Kerry was more beautiful than I could have ever imagined. Michael was very responsive and gave us recommendations to do. My kids enjoyed playing outside all day. Also, loved all the big windows in the house and having a fantastic view from each one! Would love to come back and stay again one day! Thank you again for the lovely stay!

Georgina’s place was really beautiful- it’s like an interior decorator had been at work! Just lovely. Every part of the cottage was stunning. Massive, well appointed kitchen, sitting room like something from a magazine and two beautiful bedrooms with very large en suite bathrooms. Again, beautifully decorated- really felt like a very up market boutique hotel. My sister said it was the best Airbnb she’d ever stayed in. Really lovely countryside all around and a great place to use as a base for our long walks. The fact you can bring your dog is so great. Close enough to Aldi to stock up but secluded enough to feel rural. Georgina was very helpful - had left milk, bread, eggs, jam etc for us. Such a lovely touch. I’d love to stay here again.

Laura’s place is an absolute gem! It is so tastefully designed and well appointed. The location itself is very special too. Everything has been thought of for a comfortable stay. I loved lighting a fire at night and looking out to the garden in the morning. Laura is super warm and welcoming—knowledgeable about the area too. This stay is one of the best in my books to date! Absolutely worth a visit.

We had the most amazing time. The accommodation is really like no other. Such a unique experience. I would highly recommend it. The bed was so comfortable, bathrooms so clean and spacious, and has a bath to die for. The battery operated lights around the inside of the house were a lovely touch. If you feel cool in the evenings the accommodation heats up within 20 minutes, so quick. The hot tub was a treat, the location of it is amazing, the fairy lights along the path to the hot tub was magical. The scenery is so beautiful regardless of the weather conditions. Location wise it was perfect, so close to all that glendalough has to offer. We ate in the Wicklow heather as recommended by Michael, this place will not disappoint. Michael was so cooperative and very friendly. I will definitely be back!!!!! You will not be disappointed 🥰

Absolutely stunning location. We really enjoyed every aspect of this home. Our kids had a great time at the local beaches and caves and we thoroughly enjoyed the scenic drives and the beautiful waterfall close by. Thank you for hosting us ❤️

This was a really handy space for a quick stop in Edinburgh. It’s incredibly central and I was always only 20/25 mins to where I needed to be (on foot). The space is immaculately clean and tidy. I’d definitely stay again, ideal for short trips.

We had a fabulous few days staying at The Stables. Breda and Joe have a lovely country property. We love the goodie left for us from Breda. Scones and bread both home made. The cottage is so well equipped with most things you’d need to get by but a Centra only a few minutes away has lots of options. The bed was so comfortable as were the pillows and the fluffiest feather doona. The cottage is heated but we felt we didn’t need heating on as it’s very warm inside anyway but great if it turns cold. A bonus is the washer and dryer, we’d not been able to wash for several day so felt like all home comforts were covered. We loved the kitchen and dining area, great for preparing our meals. Breda has a vegetable and herb garden which she was happy for us to use, I made good use of salad stuff and herb. We got to meet Joe who was brings the horses back into the sheds, we got to see an 8 day old foal, such a highlight for me coming from Australia’s beach scene. We highly this place Fiona

Absolutely exquisite gardens and gorgeous castle! Magic! Loved every minute here - the garden was in full bloom and we had super weather. Carola was wonderful and very helpful when we had calling issues with our phones. One of the most beautiful places we have ever stayed! Would highly recommend this place - we had the entire downstairs, complete with calling bells and voice tunes like Downton Abbey!

We had a wonderful two nights at Louise's and would have stayed longer had the apartment been free. Everything about the apartment was elegant, the street , the windows, height of ceiling, quality of the furnitiure, fixtures and fittings. The kitchen was have everything we needed. Check in and Check out was very simple using key box. The appartment is no more than 10mins from centre. There is no parking in the street but the Bath Cricket Club carpark was only 15mins away, we left our car there for all our stay, fees paid in advance.

My husband, 10-year-old daughter and myself have just returned from a truly amazing week, the property is beautiful, with facilities that far exceeded expectations. We had such a relaxing time; the beds are super comfy; led in bed looking out to sea with a coffee in the morning was a true highlight. The gardens are beautifully kept and being gated and private we had no worries with our daughter playing out. The walk down to Watcombe Beach, albeit steep on the way back up but 100% worth it; we took our paddleboard down and went swimming on a number of occasions, the water is very calm, on 2 occasions we were in the water and within 20ft off us were 2 seals! The hot tub was perfect, lovely fluffy robes provided to keep off the chill. We used the BBQ each evening and ate out on the patio. Susan is an incredible host, nothing is too much trouble, very informative and exceedingly helpful, she really did enhance our stay and made us feel as if we were staying in a home from home.

Stunning place with an incredible view of the City. The host was very friendly and accommodating . Very peaceful and calm surroundings and easily found. The place was clean and felt like home. We really enjoyed the stay and would definitely recommend it, the hot tub was a bonus!

What delightful hosts are Irene and David! Their home is fascinating and full of their family history and charm. The apartment was spacious and had everything we needed including a lovely view out of every window. Thanks for lovely unforgettable experience.

We've already made 2 further bookings - that's how pleased we were with this property! Tim & Michelle are super hosts & easy to deal with. The apartment is comfortable, modern & imaculate. Great location with secure parking. Shops nearby & easy walking distance from the city centre.

Dinah was great, she was so helpful with finding the location, providing recommendations, the air b and b was so cosy, loved it

We had a perfect weekend at Phil and Larraine’s. The apartment was clean, spacious, well equipped and had everything we needed for our stay. The outside seating area and garden was lovely. Our hosts were always available if required but also respectful to our privacy. We felt like the place was ours and settled in from minute one. Thank you Phil & Larraine . Just one more thing - those views WOW!

We had a lovely stay in Dunoon, it is a very quiet a peaceful place and we really enjoyed our stay. Paddy is friendly and helpful and her dog is beautiful and very sweet. Both beds were very comfortable, the shower was warm and powerful and the homemade bread was a great touch- we thoroughly enjoyed! Thank you again :)

Miranda was a great host! Very friendly and easy to communicate with. Her place is a hidden gem. Easy to get on the Ring of Kerry and beautiful walks in the area. Thank you Miranda for the wonderful stay ❤️

We had a wonderful stay at No Eleven The Iron Works, even before our break started we had great communication from Glyn, with lots of recommendations. We arrived to an extremely thoughtful gift basket with lots of treats ( the jelly beans were delicious ) The apartment is beautifully decorated with lots of great touches, we really appreciated that we had everything we needed, we only ate out one evening because we felt so comfortable in the apartment. Nothing was too much trouble for Glyn and his wife. I cannot recommend a stay here enough and we will be back. Thank you so much to both Glyn and his wife for making our stay so amazing.

We had a great stay at this lovely apartment. It’s stylishly decorated, well-equipped, and just a short walk from the centre of town. The cot and high chair provided were perfect for our 1.5-year-old, and everything was very comfortable and easy. Check-in instructions were clear and straightforward. Parking outside the apartment was full when we arrived on Friday evening, which made unloading a little tricky, but there was space on Sunday when we left so it may just have been the timing. Overall, a really nice base for our weekend and we’d definitely recommend it!

What an amazing AirBnB stay! The flat was stunning, historic, beautifully eccentric, well appointed, comfortable, and well located. What more could you ask for? My family loved it and would absolutely stay here again when back in Bath. ❤️

Extremely accommodating and responsive. Parking was easier than we initially thought. Location fabulous and across the street from Ee-Usk and its sister Italian restaurant Piazza. Get reservations or be at the door before they open and cross your fingers. So worth it. Easy walkability. Easy to get to ferry to other islands. The apartments was pristine, large bathroom and bedrooms. Relaxing in front of bay window overlooking water was so relaxing. Be safe repaired for 88 stairs (not that we counted)
