Sunniside is a common name for villages in historic County Durham.

The largest is in the Metropolitan Borough of Gateshead just south of Whickham. This Sunniside is at one end of the Tanfield Railway. It has a large park and also a busy Front Street with a collection of shops and amenities and it is surrounded mainly by farmland but also neighbours the small villages of Marley Hill, Byermoor and Burnopfield.

Another Sunniside is now a suburb of the City of Sunderland.

A third is a small rural village to the east of Tow Law and north of Crook. This Sunniside is located in the Wear Valley District. Sunniside has 2 pubs, and a former post office. There is a collection of newly built houses in the west of the village, called The Paddock. There are 5 streets, Gladstone Terrace, Flag Terrace, Front Street (the main street) Garden Terrace, and a little offshoot along a back road to Roddymoor, called Grahams Cottages.
