If you want to get away from it all this Christmas, head for South England. Whether you're bringing the whole family with you, or escaping for some peace and quiet, you can choose how many you want the cottage to sleep using the search options on the left. And if you're planning the Christmas roast, you'll be pleased to hear all our cottages come superbly equipped.
A UK Christmas holiday gets everyone together to enjoy this special time of year in comfort and style to make magical memories. A holiday cottage for Christmas lets you have a holiday with less hassle, just jump in the car and meet at the cottage, ready to make use of all the fabulous facilities and the well-equipped kitchen for the main event. And don't forget the extra member; our Christmas breaks with dogs mean no-one gets missed out and there's someone to hoover up any crumbs.
