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.
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...
