Local experts
We scour the coast and country to winkle out bits worth sharing with you, the best properties in lovely locations. While we’re out and about, we gather together the best things to do so that you can start planning your holiday as soon as you’ve booked.
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.
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.
Christmas holiday accommodation can fill up fast so make sure you get your pick of the holiday cottages for Christmas getaways this year (and next, with our advance reservation system).
