Coastal cottages with sea & river views

Self-catering coastal holiday cottages with sea or river views

From gazing out at the morning sun twinkling on the water, to sipping on evening drinks with a soundtrack of clinking boats and gentle waves – there’s something unequivocally relaxing about a waterside holiday. Our large selection of cottages with sea or river views transport you to some of the most desirable waterside destinations in the UK. Cosy romantic cottages in tiny seaside towns, gorgeous rural lodges in outstanding riverside locations, and expansive family properties overlooking the sea – there’s a stunning cottage waiting to welcome you.

Open your curtains to waves crashing on the shoreline or tranquil countryside scenery. Within a short stroll, you could be relaxing on the beach or enjoying a picnic next to a peaceful, meandering stream. Change up the pace by taking to the water in a kayak or canoe, or create waves by chartering your own leisure craft for the day. Take in peaceful coves and spot some sea life or freshwater fauna on your water-based adventures. The perfect opportunity to try your hand at water sports, you might find you have a natural flair for surfing, or develop a new passion for diving during your break.

Our riverside cottages are perfect for relaxing holidays with a view, gentle walks by the river, perhaps fishing from leafy banks, or kicking back with a coffee in a waterside café. Our sea view cottages offer outstanding vistas over sandy beaches and big blue waves. Whichever you choose, you'll find a great selection of waterside holiday cottages across the UK in our collection. Take a look at all of our coastal cottages and riverside holidays above.
