House rentals with a pool

Spacious & stylish family home
Ann’s house was exactly what we were looking for and we had a wonderful stay and felt very much at home. Everything was easy to find and use and the house had all the amenities we needed for a family of 5. The neighborhood was lovely and we loved walking around.

5 Bed Farmhouse With Shared Pool
We were pleased to find accommodation available where we could all stay and have a bed, have our second Christmas Day and generally be together with lots of space. Having the pool to enjoy was a particular bonus as most of us enjoy the water.

Pool & Piano | Hidden Oasis in Kensington Olympia
very nice and cooperative host. lovely place.

Barn conversion, Henley-on-Thames
A beautiful barn conversion in lovely grounds with lots of facilities, with thoughtful and helpful hosts. It was a fabulous long weekend and we didn’t need to leave the grounds to be entertained throughout, from in the pool to playing pool, it was all we could ask for.

The Place: 2-Bedroom Getaway
Our stay was exceptionally great. The train station is close which made our movements easy. The place was very clean. There was easy access to food and groceries. Chioma was very helpful and accommodating. We were able to check in earlier than the scheduled time and leave just as easy. Overall the experience was great and I highly recommend.

The Pool House
We had an amazing break in this property, a truly beautiful house with lots of design inspirations we will be taking home. Kristie was a very friendly and approachable host and clearly has an eye for detail as the pool house was a beautiful property which was a real home form home. The location was lovely too, lots to do in the area and the atmosphere of this part of the Thames we really enjoyed including hiring a boat for the afternoon for a leisurely self drive cruise up the River...the perfect day out!

Surrey Cottage with indoor heated swimming pool
This is our second stay at Four Winds and it definitely won't be our last! Everything here is perfect - the lovely annexe itself is spacious, extremely well equipped, gorgeous bed linens and fluffy towels. Just like the last time we stayed here, it's the additional activities and surrounding space that really elevate this place. The games room and the swimming pool are absolutely amazing, as is the grounds, and the woodland walks straight from the front door. Communication was excellent throughout. Thank you so much - we'll be back!

2BR Victorian Cottage w/ Private Garden & BBQ
The house itself is a major attraction. It has everything you need to feel at home. The beautiful garden provides a perfect setting for a pleasant, non-rainy day. The nearest bus stop is a 5-minute walk, and the Tube is a 10-minute walk. There are plenty of options nearby if you don’t want to go far. I highly recommend it if you are staying in Camden.

Central Watford Holiday Home
Me and my family had a wonderful 3 weeks stay. The place is near town center where you can do your grocery and shopping. The accommodation is clean and spotless. Dean is helpful and responsive that even near midnight he came to sort out one minor issue. I highly recommend this place.

Honey Barn - Stunning 4-Bed Rural Paradise
We had an absolutely fantastic experience, everything worked smoothly, and there were no issues at all. The space was immaculate and welcoming, just as described, and we loved how comfortable and thoughtfully prepared everything was. Communication with the host was great, with quick responses and clear instructions. You can even message the lovely owner personally who accommodated a late check out for us. We felt well taken care of throughout our stay. The location couldn’t have been better, close to key tring (5 min drive) yet delightfully peaceful for a relaxing getaway. From the cleanliness to the seamless check-in, every detail was spot on. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a perfect, hassle-free stay in Hastoe. We’d love to come back!

Luxury Suite in Cockfosters
This was a wonderful stay! The room does get a little toasty but over all this place is amazing and we would definitely stay here again!

Edale in the Bywaters - 15 min train to London
Susie was incredibly respknsive and very helpful with local pub recommendations. She added a coffee brewer for we Americans. We enjoyed the conservatory immensely as well as the fireplaces! It was fun to be able to see her mother's successes as a trombone player. It was a peaceful and very safe area which we appreciated. Thanks!!

Spacious Townhouse 2min. Walk To Town Train London
The area was cosy, super easy to get around. Everything you needed was within a short walk. If you’re flying in from Gatwick the train goes from the airport right to the BnB which was amazing for arriving and leaving.

Bushey’s Best
Stayed here while working in the area. The house is massive for the cost. Would recommend

Stylish, City Centre Retreat
St Albans always has such a lot to do and a fabulous community. Leos place is right in the heart of the City centre and everything is walkable, yet on a quiet back street. No problem dropping off our bags, despite the residents only parking permits. No problem finding a parking space for 10 minutes, even half an hour. We avoided the close by multi storey expensive car parking and opted to use my Just Park app, that I have used all over the UK. Booked great parking on Latimer street, approx 9 minutes walk from Spencer street, for £17 , and left the car for the whole weekend. Leos place is modern and a little quirky, surprisingly for an older property. Great fun place to hang out with good sized bedrooms and comfy beds. St Albans has loads of great pubs, and we were visiting my daughter for fathers day and enjoyed the annual folk festival. The cathedral and the Park are all within 5-10 minutes walk and the shops , bars etc 2-3 minutes walk!

Lovely clean warm stay Watford Junction 0.9 miles
James and his property have been consistently perfect week on week! The communication has been great and the house has everything you would need. I highly recommend, thank you!

Perfect space in St Albans(Disc. on longer stays)
We stayed for over 2 months while working on a project - my husband, 15 month old baby and I. The house had everything needed for such a comfortable and homey stay. Bhavisha provided us with a cot and stairgate and was always so quick to respond if we had any questions or needs at any time of day which was appreciated. She and her husband are very kind, friendly and helpful. I would recommend this house for a holiday stay in beautiful St Albans, for long terms stays with family or for work trips. It comfortably sleeps 7 in 4 bedrooms (though I wouldn't recommend the top floor bedrooms for elderly or young children as it's a very steep stair). There can be a bitnof traffic noise in the front bedrooms (I think we were just a little unlucky with construction going on opposite) but the back bedrooms are very quiet. Walking distance to everything in St Albans and a safe street. We hope to return on our next project!

Welcoming house with country views near St Albans
This is our third stay, as we won’t stay anywhere else! Beautiful roomy immaculately presented house in impeccable stunning grounds. Stephanie is the most conscientious and considerate host who goes above and beyond. The proximity to central London and ease of driving there is a mere 25 minutes to Baker Street. By far, all round, the best Airbnb we have stayed in.

Family home close to London and Harry Potter World
Peaceful and well-located – just a 30-minute train ride to central London. Hemel Hempstead offers the charm of a quiet, beautiful town with the city within easy reach.

Sleeps 7, has parking & only 6 mins from airport
We stayed at Georgina's place for one night whilst visiting Harry Potter studios and watching Beyonce! It was great for a base to crash after a busy day. It had everything needed for a quick stopover, we appreciated the host's communication, the parking and how easy it was to find. My daughter enjoyed doing acrobatics in the ample back garden and reading a book from the library! A very thoughtful touch! Thanks Georgina!

Charming two bedroom house
Highly recommended! We had a great stay at this Airbnb. The place was clean, cozy, and exactly as described. The host was friendly and responsive, making everything super easy. Great location, quiet neighborhood, and all the essentials were provided. Would definitely stay again!

Elegant parkland Cottage, prime location St Albans
Abbey Mill Lodge and the surroundings are beautiful and the location is great - a short walk from Verulamium Park, the city centre and the cathedral. The inside is bright and modern whilst maintaining the historic charm of the mill. We enjoyed the sound of the river flowing through the garden. The design of the property is quirky and makes good use of the space, however it’s useful to know that are a lot of stairs/steps and an open plan upstairs living room so not ideal for a baby on the move, but we made it work. Grace is a great host! Very responsive and proactive in her communication, and she popped over to say hi which was nice. We’d happily have stayed longer and recommend Abbey Mill Lodge to other guests!

Cosy Convenient Victorian House
Loved our stay! We felt right at home straight away and Mel left it all lovely and cosy for us arriving, with the heating and lamps on. We arrived in a storm too and she kindly checked in to see how we were getting on with our journey. House had a key lock, which was great for flexibility, so suited us. And Mel let us know she was only round the corner if we needed anything. Really homely feeling, lovely living room to all relax together with blankets and a great tv, and table in the kitchen to eat at. Hardly saw Darth Vader the cat, although the kids did spot him under one of the beds at one point. We just stayed one night, before going to Harry Potter the following morning and it was perfect for that. 10 min walk from the train station and Harry Potter bus, cafe for breakfast at the end of the road, Tesco, co-op, kfc all within 5 min walk. Would definitely recommend for staying with kids - ours are 12 and 9. Comfy beds, lovely bathroom, all great! Thanks Mel ! x

Explore Islington from a Wellspring of Design
Zoe’s place is absolutely beautiful. It’s an idyllic sanctuary from the hustle and bustle of central London, but well connected and easy to get into the action. The area has a quiet, village feel about it with lovely cafes nearby. It was great to spend 2 nights at the house with friends - we’ve all recently moved out of London so were very happy to come back to somewhere so nice (not always the case with London Airbnbs!). I met Zoe in person and she was great at communicating and very flexible with check in and out which allowed us to have more time together in the house. Hugely recommend! My friends and I were back in London for a wedding and
