Pet-friendly vacation rentals in Durham

We had a lovely weekend stay in the cabin! The hot tub was on when we arrived and even though we didn't get there until 11pm Georgie was very flexible and helped us check in. The cabin is located on a caravan park so there's other people around but you're secluded inside the cabin and you have privacy when you're in the hot tub.

Brilliant location, so peaceful, the dog had a blast, amazing scenery, would highly recommend

Family (2 adults & 2 kids) loved our stay, very well equipped and a lovely place to stay. Football goals and football was a good addition - the playground is no longer there but kids enjoyed their stay.

We stayed in this lovely apartment for a long weekend celebrating with family who live locally. The apartment was perfect, great location, clean, and just want we needed. The hot tub was a complete win with our children. The courtyard is private and a real sun trap. We will be back.

Loved our stay here. Pod was very clean and had everything you could possibly need. Hot tub was lovely. Surroundings were beautiful and peaceful, didn’t have any issues being next to the A69. Hosts were lovely and very helpful, would definitely recommend and would definitely stay here again

Tom was a great host, providing clear instructions on how to get to his place and how to operate the hot tub. The accommodation was fantastic, had everything we needed for a relaxing weekend, and is in a beautiful location. Highly recommended, we will be back!

Our second time at the gorgeous Preston Mill Loft and it was just as wonderful as we remember. Super dog friendly, the upgraded hot tub is IMMENSE, comfy bed, welcoming hosts, beautiful scenery, well stocked kitchen. The lot. Cannot recommend highly enough!

Brilliant stay.. so peaceful and spacious inside and out! Really well equipped and huge hot tub that is actually hot :) Will definitely stay again!

My husband and I and our two doggies had a truly unforgettable time. The home was the perfect escape. Stunning walks right on our doorstep, a 15/20 minute walk to the local coop, pubs, and cafe, wonderful views from the balcony when the sun shone, and a cosy home for when it rained. I cannot recommend this location enough and we will certainly be visiting again. The bath was great after our long walks and there was always plenty of hot water. The kitchen was well equipped. The WiFi was a little temperamental but the tv was always working and there’s 4G if you’re desperate to connect to the world (which isn’t necessary when you’re in such a beautiful area). Very helpful and friendly hosts, comfy bed, great shower (although you might struggle if you’re over 6ft2”. Great cooking appliances, the local pubs are lovely, and some villages within a 20 minute drive that are also worth the visit. Very happy customers!

An old farmhouse with a lifetime of memorabilia and nic-nacs. Wonderful stay. Three large bedrooms upstairs with three bathrooms; large kitchen, dining, lounge and another toilet downstairs. We only stayed one night on a driving holiday and it was very comfortable.

The cottage was exactly what was listed and what we were looking for. The Host was always responsive and friendly with many helpful details. The cottage is cosy and in beautiful surroundings with friendly neighbours. It also is well equipped for short or long stays. We will definitely recommend and hopefully come back soon! Thank you

Great location for Guisborough to explore the coast and countryside. Well equipped cottage with all thats needed for a short stay. Great communication from hosts. Would definateley recommend.

Coming from the States, we were looking for a quintessential Yorkshire Dales experience: someplace peaceful and quiet with beautiful scenery. This place fit the bill perfectly. The house was very comfortable and we especially loved the shower, beds and comforters. It really is self catered so be sure to bring any cooking staples you will need. Beautiful artwork throughout the house, and some great magazines to read on rainy days. We did have an issue on the second to last day we were there - the power went out for no apparent reason. Luckily we were able to isolate the problem circuit and get things partially working again. Claire was very helpful and arranged for showers we could use in the cabins at the main property down the road. All in all, it was a lovely location and we would definitely stay there again.

A clean, comfortable and peaceful home. Liz and Joe were helpful and attentive without being overbearing. Would use again if we needed accommodation in the Hexham area.

Only point is parking is a 5min walk away

We had an amazing week it was perfect for the dogs straight out to the Valley Gardens and a good sized, secure garden. Amenities were close to hand including train station and bus stops we didn’t use the car all week. Stunning walks and friendly bars and cafes. The Outlook was an amazing property we can’t recommend it enough. Also check out the spa hotel 🥹

Second time at this place. Great location, easy to park, lovely house

What a smashing wee find, just what we wanted. The annex is well laid out and well equipped. The bedding was super quality [something important to me]. Easy to come and go and you park your car right outside the door. Worth noting there is a step down into the kitchen and bathroom which has a sensor light on it at night so not to much of a problem. We would happily stay here again.

Had a lovely stay at this location. Three bedrooms, each with their own bathroom have each of us plenty of privacy. The house had an abundance of space and the full size kitchen made meal preparation easy. Location was great, walkable distance to the city centre, Durham Cathedral and castle but just far enough to offer quiet and privacy. A great launchpad for exploring County Durham.

This was our first Airbnb experience and we have to say that the bar has been set very high. Our host Trevor was lovely, the area beautiful and interesting, and the accommodation excellent. There were plenty of great walks within an easy drive and it wasn’t overcrowded which made it all the more pleasant. Although the accommodation is great, it is worth being aware that the stairs to the bedroom may present challenges for some people, but if you think you can manage them, you will love this property. There are different options for heating, constant hot water and the kitchen has everything you need. The four legged neighbours are also friendly, if hungry; and my guide dog very much appreciated the lovely dog bed, fleecy blanket and flashing toy! Thank you so much Trevor, it would be lovely to be able to return in the future if we can manage it.

Lucy made me and my two sons Joshua and Oliver feel right at home in her cute pink house in Durham. From the welcome to the pink house chalkboard, to the friendly and responsive instructions, we felt like we were in a 'home away from home'. The Pink House is within walking distance to picturesque Durham and the magnificent Durham Cathedral. We highly recommend this place to stay.

Ellen was a fantastic host. Made me and my children feel really welcome. The house was large & very clean, ellen was on hand to help if needed. Would highly recommend & will be sure to stay again next time im up. Thank you very much Ellen. From jamie and the kids

We booked Gillie's place as a retreat while we had major refurbishment work in our home. We were attracted by the description of the garden haven and we weren't disappointed. The house was a bit like a Tardis. Unassuming from the frontage but with loads of space and a wonderful garden at the back. The position between Durham Moor and Framwellgate was perfect. Easily walkable into Durham city and with great amenities nearby. Parking was for three vehicles and the wifi and smart tv were super fast. The Airbnb was also great value for money compared to other Durham City properties. As a host Gillie would not have been more helpful and responded to emails through Airbnb very quickly. Definitely one of our best stays.

We really enjoyed our 3 month stay at 'Over the top' which felt like our home away from home. The house has all the essentials, and is in a nice area with lots of shops and Aykley Wood nearby. Communication with Alan was very smooth.
