Short Breaks


Most of the time our holiday properties book out for the Full week (7 nights), however there are times during some Off Peak periods or last minute where Short Breaks may be arranged with certain properties. They can be either 3, 4, 5 or 6 nights and are priced accordingly. Please remember that all short break enquiries have to be checked prior to booking, simply find your perfect cottage, get in touch and we will help finalise your enquiry either email or phone our Reservation Team .


Our offices are open every day.

    Win the Ultimate Christmas!

    With a crisp chill now in the air and the decorating of our pretty office tree, we’re finally in the mood for this month’s festivities and the warm and fuzzy feeling this provokes has once again kicked off our seasonal debate – what makes the ultimate Christmas?

    Well this year, in hope of discovering the secret of how to wholeheartedly enjoy and fully celebrate the most magical (and sometimes stressful!) of days – we’ve decided to bring you in on our deliberations…

    Of course we won’t let your contributions go unrewarded – in exchange for your assistance with our quest; you’ll be put in the running to WIN the Ultimate Christmas…the lucky winner will receive a prize to coincide with each question asked in the shape of our Ultimate Christmas Hamper.

    From Monday the 5th December, we’ll be blogging, tweeting and facebooking a Christmas themed question every day for 10 days in order to help us glean how we could create the ideal Yuletide day…

    From the perfect setting (nothing beats an open log fire in a cosy cottage eh?) to making sure you’re wearing the reindeer jumper Granny knitted – we want to know what makes your Ultimate Christmas!

    So from this Monday the 5th make sure you log in and log on - check out our Christmas quest question, send us your response and at the end of each day we’ll post the best answer that will then make up part of the prize. All entrants will be entered into the draw.

    Ho Ho Ho Happy Christmas!
