We are Gold accredited with the Green Tourism Business Scheme.
Green Tourism Business Scheme
As a company, we look across our business and try to make sustainable changes and decisions. From using recycled paper in our printers to putting in measures for using less energy in our offices, we keep an eye on our impact on the environment.
Beyond our offices, we have passed on the same ethics to our holiday cottage owners by setting up our own Green Scheme that they can join. Each property has to tick off a certain number of actions to be included in the scheme, many of which go above and beyond the GTBS requirements.
If you want to make your May half-term count this year, why not book a family holiday in Dorset? Our range of self-catering cottages come in all shapes and sizes, with plenty of room for your little ones. Many cottages have extra facilities like swimming pools, games rooms and large gardens so the kids will be in entertainment heaven while mum and dad relax.
May isn't all about half-term though. There are two bank holidays to look forward to, and lots of opportunities to make the most of this beautiful and diverse county ahead of the summer crowds. Whether you're looking for a solo retreat, romantic couples getaway or catch up with friends, we can help you find the ideal cottage for you. If you've got a four-legged member of the family, it's great news as many of our cottages are dog-friendly too.
