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.
Choose from beachside hideaways, countryside cottages, and beautifully converted barns for a ‘traditional with a twist’ experience. We’re big fans of the idea that you don’t have to travel far to get away, and these welcoming cottages in Sussex, Kent, Norfolk, Suffolk, the Cotswolds, Hampshire and Wiltshire are just a short drive or train ride away, also pairing perfectly with some of the best London-adjacent beaches. So, pack the bags and even bring the dog, as you escape the familiar streets of London for a classic cottage that feels like home.
