Summer holiday cottages for a last-minute break

When it comes to choosing the perfect summer holiday, everyone has different ideas in mind. Whatever your summer holiday dreams might be, we’re here to help make them a reality. In need of a romantic break? Choose a traditional country cottage in the hills. Escape the distractions of daily life and spend quality time together in your new peaceful surroundings.

If you’re looking for a cottage with a bit of added luxury, why not find one with a private hot tub? In the evenings, soak in the soothing bubbles as you watch the summer sun setting over the horizon. For those who always bring their pooch along for the adventure, our dog-friendly cottages by the beach are sure to please. You’ll both get to enjoy the fresh air and soft sand under your feet.

Choose from beautiful destinations across the UK

Still on the search for the perfect destination? If you think summer holidays are best spent by the beach, head down to Devon or Cornwall. Home to golden sands and turquoise waters, you’d be forgiven for thinking you’d landed somewhere tropical. For a traditional break at a seaside resort, the bustling piers of Brighton and Bournemouth await your arrival.


If you’d prefer the sights of rolling valleys and wild woodlands, then choose a cottage in Lake District, North York Moors or Exmoor national parks. From any of these destinations, you’ll get to enjoy great walking routes along some of the most scenic landscapes in Britain.
