When a home is surrounded by beautiful scenery, the interior really has to up its game in order to stand a chance of being noticed and thankfully that's the case with this address. Large floor-to-ceiling windows let in ample amounts of natural daylight, which dances pleasingly off the wooden floors. Added to that, we liked the kitchen finished in a fetching shade of purple, the cosy wood-burning stove in the living room and the smart-looking bathrooms. Combined all together, it's almost enough to distract you from the stunning view of Lake Ullswater watched over by undulating hilltops. When you're in the mood to swoon, there's a terrace complete with alfresco seating so you can dine with this sweeping panorama in front of your eyes. The property itself sits on the Ullswater Way — a walking route that goes around the water — and you can easily reach other natural landmarks on foot. Aira Force waterfall, for instance, takes just over an hour and a half.

Grass of Parnassus

Just a mile from the beautiful sandy and shingle shores of Marske Beach, this newly built holiday home is perfectly positioned to explore this picturesque stretch of the North Sea coast.

The majority of the individually decorated rooms include an eye-catching feature wall, adding a splash of colour and a playful atmosphere to the home, while the enclosed garden is perfect for outdoor dinners and playtime with four-legged friends and energetic children. 

You'll hear the occasional cheer from the terraces of the nearby football club. Still, its family-friendly atmosphere on match days makes it an ideal candidate for a first football match, with little worry about the outlay when your children inevitably grow bored around fifteen minutes in. 

After catching a snippet of the game, enjoy an afternoon stroll southwards along the dramatic coast towards the historic seaside spa town of Saltburn-by-the-Sea with its iconic cast iron pier stretching 208 metres out to sea and its Grade II-listed cliff lift.

Beneath the Marske

This stylish apartment is the ideal seaside getaway – it's right in the heart of glorious Saltburn-by-the-Sea. You'll be a two-minute walk across the road from the golden sands of Saltburn Beach – perfect for picnics or doing some watersports. This walker's paradise is situated on the Cleveland Way National Trail, a great route to explore the rugged North Yorkshire coastline. Or, for fabulous views of the North Sea, take a ride on the Cliff Tramway.

As soon as you walk into this interior designed apartment, housed in a charming Victorian building, you'll notice how light and bright it is, thanks to a large bay window, crisp white walls and high ceilings. The velvet sofas give a spot of luxury, while colourful artwork adds vibrancy. Whip up some fresh, local seafood in the modern kitchen and enjoy with a glass of wine. This home is perfect for a family or friends looking to unwind.





Circle In The Sand

Located on the North Yorkshire coast in the heart of Saltburn-by-the-Sea, Pearl Street is a cosy and welcoming ground floor apartment sleeping two guests. With a sandy beach, a beautiful Victorian pier, and plenty of other attractions within walking distance, you'll be well placed to explore all that Saltburn has to offer. Imagine waking up to the sound of crashing waves and enjoying a leisurely morning stroll along the golden shores. Experience the charm and tranquillity of this coastal retreat with its tastefully decorated interiors and comfortable furnishings. Relax in the sun-filled living area overlooking the sparkling sea, or enjoy al fresco dining on the private patio. Pearl Street offers the perfect haven for a romantic getaway or a peaceful solo adventure. Unwind, recharge, and create lasting memories in this idyllic seaside getaway.

Sandy Shores Oasis

Located right in the heart of Tynemouth, this apartment is in a fab spot. The colourful rooms and comfortable furnishings offer a warm welcome after a bracing beach walk. And the kitchen is handy if you want to cook at home (be sure not to miss seaside fish and chips too). The living area might be a tad cosy if seven of you are staying, and there are a fair few stairs both inside and out. But it’s a great base for exploring the Northumberland coast or visiting Newcastle.

Lighthouse Lodge

Seven minutes by car from Durham city centre, this former rectory plays host to a most luxurious home that feels a world away from urban life. In the rolling fields of County Durham lies a village called Witton Gilbert. At its heart, you’ll find local pubs, shops, and a bowling green, but a five-minute walk will take you up to your vast manor. Enter through majestic,  wrought-iron gates, up your private drive, to the bright blue front door – a cheery invitation to welcome you inside. With modern, velvet furniture in the living space illuminated by enormous bay windows, the gold detailing truly shimmers in the afternoon sun. Pad across the plush carpet to the flagstone floors of the kitchen, where you can rustle up a wholesome Sunday roast on the bottle-green Aga. The dining space has ample room for the whole family, with a rustic table made from huge planks of wood, for a nod to country living. On a balmy summer evening, you might even want to trade the dining table for a picnic on the lawn, followed by a game of tennis on your private court (and a gin and tonic after sunset).

The Ecclesiastic

Wander down a sleepy side street in Barnard Castle, and you'll find this charming holiday cottage. Perfect for a family or small group of friends, it's a wonderful spot where you can kick back and relax between your adventures. 

It's a real home away from home – think comfy sofas, a cosy patterned rug, and a warm, welcoming colour scheme. The kitchen is well-equipped for you to whip up your favourite dishes when you get hungry, from quick breakfasts to delicious Sunday roasts. And, there's even a serene courtyard where you can relax in the fresh air as you finalise your itinerary. 

The town of Barnard Castle has plenty of charm – wander through the pretty streets and stop off at one of the local pubs or tea rooms for a refreshment. History fans will be happy to know that the fortress that gave the town its name is just a six-minute walk away. And, guests who are planning some outdoor activities can head to the Yorkshire Dales or the North Pennines, both just a nine-minute drive away, to explore the rural landscapes. 

Begonia Bloom

Nestled within close proximity to the fort, guests can immerse themselves in the area's fascinating past and revel in the tranquil ambiance. Indulge in morning coffees accompanied by panoramic coastal vistas or take a leisurely stroll along the nearby shore. With on-site parking available for up to four cars and an additional space for campervans, convenience meets serenity at this idyllic seaside retreat. Create cherished memories at The View Old Coastguard Cottage and experience a truly remarkable stay in Tynemouth.

Quaint Coastal Getaway

Go back in time to this Georgian country house, only 9 miles from the iconic Alnwick Castle and Garden. As part of a private estate, you'll find lush grounds, a lily pond, and outdoor seating spots. Travelling with kids? There's baby equipment, toys, and old-fashioned lawn games to try out during the summer. Indoors, the characterful rooms are full of authentic features, including a log fire and flagstone flooring. Rothbury awaits 6 miles away, well known for its bakery and charming high-street amenities.

The Golden Chest

Spend dewy mornings perched in the window seat overlooking the leafy garden with a coffee in hand. With modern home furnishings and characterful original features, this apartment in Durham offers a peaceful escape from the woes of your daily grind. Whip up comforting homemade meals in the kitchen before curling up around the living room's seating area for group games nights or some chillout time in front of the TV. 

Situated in a historic building, the space brings warmth and homeliness to rainy days and chilly months. Meanwhile, the home's surrounding nature, luscious green landscapes and town centre conveniences set the scene for a peaceful retreat. You'll find Durham's town centre a short ten-minute walk away – packed with beautiful charm, the city's Medieval heritage, cobbled streets and independent bars, pubs and restaurants await with open arms.


Dewy Mornings 

A perfect getaway for two, this cottage delivers on all fronts. It's bright and contemporary, but the vaulted ceilings and exposed beams add a rustic touch that suits the surrounding landscape. Inside, a light-filled living area opens onto a gorgeous patio. Sipping champagne as the sun goes down will become your evening ritual – keep an eye out for wild rabbits and rare birds flying overhead. The kitchen is on the smaller side, but it's well-stocked and well-suited to rustling up delicious breakfasts and other light meals. We also adore the sleigh bed – it's as comfortable as it looks, and nothing beats sinking into the plush sheets after a day of exploring. Speaking of exploring, you're only a five-minute drive from Alnwick, a charming market town with a famous castle. Roam the cobbled streets lined with independent shops, cafes, pubs and restaurants, then head up to the castle for a history lesson or wander the gardens. Drive ten minutes in the opposite direction and you'll hit the Northumberland coast – both Boulmer and Alnmouth are great options if you fancy a day by the seaside.

Listen To The Wind

Perched upon the Whitley coast lies this comfortable modern home. Large windows allow natural daylight to permeate the house during the day, so you can wake up to scenic views right from the bedrooms, and open the window to let in the smell of the sea. Sit out on the patio in the garden and enjoy drinks and good company as the sun sets or curl up on the sofa in the living room and get lost in a good book.

You'll find plenty to do in Whitley Bay, including the two miles of golden sandy beaches, where you'll enjoy some incredible vistas from the St Mary's Island lighthouse. If you're hoping to find some great places to eat out during your trip, you’re in luck – Spanish City plays host to a Renaissance-style hall complete with a fish and chip restaurant, a bar and a traditional tearoom. What’s more, this abode is in close proximity to public transport, so you'll be able to hop on a bus to the city centre for some retail therapy.
