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.
You don't need a whole week away to relax and recharge. Sometimes a short break is all you need to explore, adventure and take some time to yourself. Short breaks are perfect getaways year-round whether you’re looking for a spring escape, autumn adventure, or a cosy winter break. And no matter what time of year it is, we’ll have something for you, whether you need a dog friendly cottage, a place for the whole family, a cottage with a sea view or fancy a cottage with a hot tub. With short break cottages across the UK, we've got plenty to choose from.
Go on, treat yourself...
