Family Holidays in the North East & Yorkshire

This is a region that rewards families who like variety. You can be on a working farm collecting eggs in the morning and watching the sea from a clifftop in the afternoon. You can explore the cobbled streets and Viking history of York with older children, then spend the following day in absolute countryside quiet. North East England and Yorkshire cover an enormous amount of ground, and the properties you'll find here reflect that range. The coast stretches from the wide sandy beaches of Filey and Scarborough in Yorkshire up through the dramatic cliffs of Robin Hood's Bay to the vast, unspoilt beaches of Northumberland. Contemporary coastal apartments and beachside cottages put families right on the doorstep of some of the finest seaside in England, without the crowds of the South West. The countryside delivers the kind of holiday children remember. Farm stays in the Yorkshire Wolds where animals need feeding and eggs need collecting. Character cottages tucked into the North York Moors with walking, cycling and steam railways on the doorstep. Luxury lodges with hot tubs in the Dales for families who want the landscape without roughing it. York is one of the best city break destinations in England for families. History that genuinely grips children, a compact centre that's easy to navigate on foot, brilliant museums and enough cafes and restaurants to keep everyone happy. All of the properties here are Away with the Kids approved, visited, vetted and loved by families with children of their own. Browse below or use the filters to find exactly what suits your family.
