We’ve been raising the standards of self catering holidays since 1977.
Our family ethos
Tony and Clare Tregoning started the business back in 1977 and their dedication to quality and excellence is at the heart of everything we do. Tony is sadly no longer with us, but we still adhere to their original ethos of finding holiday homes we would like to stay in and have slowly grown the company to find the best picks of properties across the counties. Plus Clare still drops in to keep us on our toes.
As an independent, family-run company, we wouldn’t expect you to stay anywhere we wouldn’t want to stay ourselves. And we’re pretty picky. We want you to walk into your handpicked holiday home and say ‘wow’, sit back and relax.

Each and every one of our cottages is fully equipped with everything you’ll need on holiday.
Fully equipped cottages
All of our cottages have a standard list of equipment that goes above and beyond. As well as fluffy towels and readymade beds, our bare minimum includes everything you’ll need and more, from plenty of teaspoons to added extras such as gravy boats so no matter where you stay, you’ll be able to make your favourite home-cooked dishes.
Each inventory is regularly checked and counted so you won’t be stuck without a ladle and can leave your hairdryer at home, plus you’ll find a starter set of toiletries and cleaning products so you can get on with your holiday.
Whether you are escaping for the first time with your newborn or holidaying with the whole tribe, it is great to have your own space and to be able to do things when you want. 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. Your family's cottage holiday starts here.
[Region] brings a wealth of opportunities for families of all ages; being away with the kids can be filled with exciting days out exploring new places, or more sedate members of the family needn't leave the luxury of the holiday cottage. There's even room for four-legged members of the family to make sure no-one is left out of what has the potential to be the best family holiday yet.
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. Family holidays in South England have all the above and more. The hard part is choosing which of our 114 family cottages in South England you want to stay in the most!
