Cottage vacation rentals in Metropolitan Borough of Gateshead

Really cosy place, awesome decor and a huge bed. Would love to visit in winter to make use of the fireplaces (the weather was too good this weekend!) Hot tub was great and pizza oven fantastic. Thanks for having us!

A lovely place to stay! Host was very helpful and friendly. Had an amazing field nearby for kids and dogs. Would recommend!

We had an absolute wonderful two-night stay at this cottage! It's lovely, spotlessly clean, and incredibly well-equipped with everything you could need. The welcome gifts were a delightful surprise, and the hosts were so friendly and quick to respond to all our messages. The location is perfect, just a short few minutes drive to the beach. What truly stood out was their amazing hospitality: we accidentally left something behind, and they sent it to us via next-day delivery without hesitation. We can't recommend this place enough!

Spent 3 lovely peaceful days here! The place is spotless. Easy to check in, but quite a late one for standard check in times. Even with surrounding neighbours there was minimal disturbance.

Back at Ivy Cottage again, we had another great stay. We love the hut tub and pool table, and plenty of space for everyone. Thanks Jane.

Beautifully furnished barn. Smelt amazing. Easy check in. Peaceful surroundings.

We enjoyed a great break in Peewit Cottage, which was spotless and had everything you need. The surroundings were well looked after and amenities great. The little touches, including the welcome pack (best we’ve had and included the dog!) and Prosecco and strawberries to enjoy in the hot tub were thoughtful and lovely. All the information you need is provided prior to arrival or readily available within the cottage. We used the cottage as a base to visit local attractions, all easily accessible by car. Glen was both very welcoming and helpful. Would definitely recommend and somewhere we would return to. Thank you, Jacqueline!

10/10 recommendations!! Stayed here for a couple nights with a group of friends. The cottage was even better in person the photos really don’t give it enough justice. views outside were beautiful. We were lucky to have the hot weather during our stay so made good use of the outdoor amenities like the hot tub and fire pit. Overall an excellent property which is excellent value for money. Would definitely recommend and I personally will be back! Massive thank you to Mark and Michelle!

Elaine greeted us as we parked up and was incredibly friendly and attentive right from the start. We really appreciated the thoughtful breakfast items she had left for us – such a lovely touch! I was staying in the area for a wedding, and her location was absolutely perfect. Would definitely recommend!

I managed to book this at the hottest weekend with my dog that doesn’t do heat! Matthew and Jess were brilliant, they provided a fan, ice pops for us and the dog! They thought of everything and fabulous recommendations. Sadly my dog was not well and we had to leave almost as soon as we had arrived to get to my vets The place was gorgeous though, will definitely try to go back when it’s cooler!

Wonderful place with the comfiest bed ever. Such Wonderful views. watching the swallows. Everything we needed for a couple of nights. Would have loved some milk in the fridge but not too far to local farm shop to stock up.

Bev’s place was a perfect spot to relax surrounded by lovey countryside. Exceptionally clean and homely.

Nick's house was easy to find, very clean and tidy. Excellent information on how and when we could get in. Close to the sea front with all the restaurants you could need. I would definitely visit again.

I cannot say enough good things about this gorgeous cottage. It is the cleanest Airbnb we’ve ever stayed in and smelled incredible. Diane has thought of everything you could need including a very handy umbrella. She responded so quickly answering all of our questions. The location is great for exploring all the nearby sites. Thank you, we will be back!

We had a lovely stay! The place was tidy, well-equipped, and had everything we needed for a comfortable visit. We did experience a couple of minor issues, like some sockets not working and a brief problem with the hot water boiler. However, the host was extremely helpful and quick to respond, and everything was sorted out promptly. Really appreciated the support — it made all the difference. Would happily recommend this place to others!

Lynnes property was such a great find. It offered us (four adults, two children, one dog), such a great place to base ourselves for our week away. The house is much bigger than it looks in the photos and it has everything you need including loads of useful items for small children (toys, plates/ bowls, toilet seat etc.). We definitely recommend Lynnes place.

The perfect place for a weekend getaway! Lots of great places to see in the area. Addy’s cottage had everything we could have needed and more. We made good use of the fully equipped kitchen but had some great recommendations for places to eat out nearby too. The cottage is a clean and cosy space and we couldn’t have asked for more! We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely go back.

We had an exceptional stay at Sally and Tim’s Airbnb. They had thought of everything to make our stay as comfortable and luxurious as possible. The house was better than most hotels; it was completely spotless, all amenities were of high quality, and most importantly of all, Sally and Tim had gone above and beyond to add personal touches to make us feel welcome. There was a beautiful array of locally sourced foods when we arrived, as well as a handwritten note and fresh peonies. I would not hesitate to recommend The Old Workshop, and we would love to return.

Lovely cottage - traditional on the outside, modern on the inside. Everything was spotless. The furniture, including the beds, is extremely comfortable. A welcome gift of lovely biscuits, crisps, etc was a nice addition. Michael was very quick to respond to messages or questions and dealt very efficiently with our request to change the dates we had booked. We would have no hesitation in recommending the accommodation and would happily stay there again.

Spacious and comfortable cottage ideal for a couple in a pretty village by the moors. We enjoyed visiting the surroundings including the city of Durham and Beamish Open Air Museum as well as castles and countryside. On street parking was no problem as we always parked in front of the cottage.

Having previously occupied the adjacent cottage we were delighted to have the opportunity to spend time in the larger High Pasture . We hope to return at the first opportunity as our son , daughter in law , and nine month grandson live close by .

'Elmhurst' is the quintessential English village experience. It is a delightful and extremely comfortable cottage in a quaint little village. The cottage is very nicely and thoughtfully furnished with comfortable sofas and beds. It is very well-equipped and had lots of thoughtful touches including fresh flowers on the table, milk in the fridge, candles and a fire laid in the fireplace. There is a small back patio area where I sat in the spring sunshine and also a small front garden area facing the road. The road is quiet, especially at night. The Bridge End Inn is a nice little pub directly across the road where I chatted with the locals and enjoyed delicious Italian food. Just walking outside the door of the cottage takes you to lovely country walks along the Tyne river and into the woods behind Ovingham. This is a truly lovely place to stay and I'll definitely stay here again. Chris is a friendly, helpful and proactive host - thank you!

Holly and Chris were lovely hosts. Offered us local recommendations, super friendly and messages were clear. They provided basics like milk and coffee/tea, and extras like bread and eggs which were a lovely touch Felt like they were available if needed but also gave us our privacy

A well equipped house with character which was a great place to spend a week exploring the south of Northumberland. The house has character, is in a quiet spot on a hill overlooking fields and is well equipped. John was there if we needed him and always chatty and helpful when. We'd definitely stay again!
