Arrive at your handpicked holiday home safe in the knowledge it’s been fully inspected.
Quality inspections
We check our holiday homes to ensure that everything is up to our high standards for your holiday, from provision of our above standard minimum inventory to how fluffy the towels are, we make sure you’ll have a comfortable stay.
Hardworking teams of housekeepers will have the place spick and span, ready for your arrival, so when you get there you can just relax.
Spend your days exploring deep, green countryside and skim stones across lazy streams. Follow the scent of salty air and head to the coast, spending long days on the beach flitting between soft sands and cool sea. Perch on a bench and watch as life goes by, before heading to a local restaurant to dine on fresh, local produce lovingly crafted and prepared by skilled hands. Then, when you've had your fill of exploring, turn your attention to relaxing. Throw yourself into the holiday spirit and land in your own private self-catering cottage, primed and ready for you. An early summer break in your own slice of paradise can give you the chance to unwind, catch up and settle into a slower, more considered rhythm.
