Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Great Britain

What an amazing place! This is something special. It is a beautiful thought out structure with spectacular furnishings and such a well designed space. Underfloor heating! That is a first for me and my partner and I loved it. The hosts kept the rustic look alive in how they designed it and even had a thatched roof!. Outside the cottage is a world of summer flowers, carefully attended by the older lady who lived in the adjoining cottage. Of course the hot tub and sauna were a great addition. I loved that they did not spare expense with the furnishings from the well designed dish drip tray to the fancy fan in the bedroom. We wish we could have spent more time here as after a few days travelling we spent one of our days lounging in the hot tub with a glass of champagne whilst listening to the constant bird chorus and watching the horses saunter around in adjoining fields. Really is a magical space. We loved it. Thanks Paul

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.

We had a lovely stay at Tethera Nook, it had everything we needed and was very comfortable for our group. The space itself is very well thought out and we loved the bath, the gardens, the friendly chickens and the super comfy beds, thank you Emma and Craig.

2nd visit and well worth it. Quite and tranquil space to enjoy

This is my third time visiting Badgers Bothy and we've made it 4 for next year! It is a little peace of heaven, set in the most gorgeous setting. If you are looking for a place to relax, unwind and forget about things for a few days then Joe's place is perfect for this. It's beautifully decorated, beautifully clean and feels like a second home from the second you walk through the door. The wildlife is an additional bonus - sat in the living room watching a Muntjac walk past was just the cherry on the top. Thanks Joe for another lovely visit, we are very much looking forward to coming back next year x

Very nice house, garden area ideal. Nice personal touch with bread and butter for us to enjoy. Would stay there again

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 🥰

We stayed here for a week late May/early June and all agreed that this is one of the nicest places -- if not the nicest -- that we have ever stayed in. The airbnb itself is beautiful. Simon was a gracious and generous host and had left the kitchen stocked with all kinds of goodies which he encouraged us to consume. We had 3 dinners at the Shoulder of the Mutton -- just because we so much liked their food -- took a number of hikes, checked out Liverpool and visited the Yorkshire Sculpture Park [very much worth the hour drive] and Chatworth. All was stunning. I can't recommend this place more highly.

Carol's apartment is a little bit of heaven in the middle of beautiful countryside, my wife and I wouldn't hesitate to return to the castle next time we're visiting Scotland

We had a lovely 5 night stay here, and it was everything we needed. The apartment is beautiful, light, comfortable, well equipped, and has a wonderful view of Portreath Beach. Katherine was very helpful and responded very quickly to messages. We would stay again.

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.

Dave was a great host and provide all the information we needed to stay at is wonderful apartment. Amazing location!

What a stunning location, looking out on the sea. I spent ages looking at the birds but sadly no sight of dolphins etc. The bothy was so lovely and had everything necessary for a great stay. I hope to return. Thank you

What a STUNNING place. I needed a quiet solo retreat following my 50th birthday and it was perfect. Waking up and going to sleep (sometimes several times a day!) looking at the sea was glorious. Had several baths looking up at the hills and the sky. Even baked some cookies! I left feeling restored. Couple of things I didn’t know, but that don’t reflect on Melinda as a host: - parking is on the road, not on the drive, but I got space directly outside - I could even keep an eye on my car from the bedroom! - there is a bit of a smell (from a neighbour who smokes?) that comes up into the lounge that kept me out of it sometimes - the road is quite busy with cars during the day, so you will mainly hear the sea in the morning and the evening. Rhos is minutes away - I had a couple of fab meals at Fortes. Buses are very easy - I went to Llandudno for the Thurs male voice choir concert at St Johns. Colwyn is an easy walk up the beach. Gorgeous! I’d love to come back.

Gabriella’s place was a in a perfect location for exploring the Cotswolds. We very much appreciated the attention to detail and all the extras provided. Thank you for a great stay! Sue and Dave

Absolutely fantastic! The best Airbnb I’ve ever stayed at in the last 4 years of using it. Fantastic thought for the guests and very responsive, willing to give extra toiletries and the property just feels top quality in everything. The bed super comfortable and we didn’t use all the cushions provided. I could go on and on, I hope Amanda and Gareth are able to open more Airbnb’s in the Lake District area. I would be gutted if when we return next year her place wasn’t available 💯

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.

Great location, just over Pulteney Bridge so nice and quiet at nighttime but very easy to walk over to the main attractions during the day. Lots of great restaurants etc. very close by too. The apartment itself is impressive! The scale is larger than the photos, all very spaced out with lots of room. The design is great and everything was spotless. The kitchen had amenities to be able to cook at home. Great window coverings to allow complete blockout at night, however also allowed through flow of air during the day. As advertised, it is upstairs, so something to note. We were made aware there were renovation works on the apartment upstairs, however they were all conducted in normal construction hours and we barely heard any noise. Overall, peaceful and so enjoyable, we would stay here again and highly recommend it.

Ben’s apartment is very comfortable and stylish. The location in the Titanic Quarter was perfect for us. We could walk downtown and to the Titanic Belfast museum. We could just leave our car parked while we were in Belfast. There is a small grocery store on the ground level of the apartment complex. The breakfast food and goodies that Ben provided were much appreciated. The washer/dryer was great for us on a three week road trip in Ireland. This is a lovely place to stay.

We had the most amazing time in your home Stuart and Angela. ❤️ You made us feel so welcome from the moment we stepped in. The views were breathtaking and the peace and quiet at the cottage was just what we needed. The views of the village, the sun set and the full moon were all beautiful gems we got to experience at Top of t’hill. You really have made it a cosy and comfortable stay, and it was a perfect getaway, away from the hustle and bustle of city life. The gym and sauna were great facilities that we benefitted and enjoyed too. Your eco environment friendly home and surroundings was an inspiration to us. Finally, your hospitality and kindness, and lovely chats with us made us feel like old friends! We will definitely be telling our friends and family about your gem of a place in our beautiful Yorkshire! Thank you again - much love and warmest regards ❤️❤️🙏🏽🙏🏽

We spent two nights at The Butler's Basement for my husband's birthday and it was an ideal base. We did have an issue getting in as the lockbox didn't work, but her son came down and resolved the issue. The apartment was very clean and in a great area - some lovely bars and restaurants that we preferred to spend time in, more than the busier side of Edinburgh. Gemma was very responsive to my messages and we also had a bottle of fizz in the fridge as well as some short bread and chocolate. It might be an idea to put a small bottle of milk in the fridge, as we did have tea and coffee provided but didn't want to buy a whole pint of milk to make a couple of drinks. However it certainly wasn't an issue that would stop us staying again!

We wrapped up an incredible three-week road trip through the UK with a two-night stay at Tom’s charming coach house flat—and it was the perfect finale. This beautifully appointed second-floor, two-bedroom retreat was ideally situated, just a short and scenic walk (less than 0.8 miles) from the heart of the Old City and the Canterbury Cathedral. With restaurants and groceries conveniently located within three blocks, and every imaginable amenity thoughtfully provided within the flat—including on-property parking and breakfast essentials awaiting us—it exceeded all expectations. The comfort, location, and attention to detail made for an unforgettable stay in Canterbury. Now I truly understand why this Airbnb is so “highly rated”! Tom’s hospitality was exceptional—helpful, informative, and always clear in his communication. A truly lovely experience from start to finish.

This is an absolute gem of a place and location, with views right across the Darent Valley. I only wish we could have stayed longer! The place was spotless and everything had been perfectly prepared and very well thought through (from the local hand-drawn maps right down to the vast array of toiletries on offer). I can't think of a single thing to change or improve about the place. Diana was a lovely host and provided a lot of information prior to arrival. She had also found some suggestions of activities for us tailored to our interests, which was frankly above and beyond. We were very grateful and it was clear a lot of thought had been put in prior to our arrival. I could carry on for pages but in summary, we have already recommend the place to family and friends and we be pleased to offer our recommendation here too. Thank you, Diana, for such a lovely place to stay and we hope to be back soon!

we had a wonderful stay. Everything was perfect. Beautifully decorated, and so comfortable. Samantha was very helpful, and easily contactable. The views were amazing. great restaurants and bars in easy walking distance. we will definitely be back. Thank you Samantha for a lovely stay.
