The ‘Explore Nearby’ tab on our cottage pages show what’s nearby along with relevant articles from our holiday guides from Notes and Stories, where you’ll find hand-written experiences of outings across the South and West, from dog-friendly pubs on the Isle of Wight to free things to do in south Devon and everything in between.

Family holidays can seem stressful but we've thought of everything so when you arrive in your family holiday destination, you can put your feet up and just relax.

UK breaks for families can cater for all requirements; crazy adrenalin-fuelled action or chilled-out respites, summers by the sea or adventures out in the countryside.
