May half term and bank holiday breaks 2026

As summer makes its presence known with warmer days and sunshine, May half term is a lovely time of year for a holiday. With the children off school around the 25th May for a week, why not enjoy a few days away, or a relaxing week somewhere you've always been meaning to visit? We've got cottages on working farms where you can get close to the animals, beautiful seaside retreats, perfect for bucket and spade days, and fantastic city apartments where you can fill your days sightseeing. Whatever your idea of the perfect half term, you're sure to find your ideal cottage among our collection.

Don't forget we also have the late May bank holiday on Monday May 25th, creating a nice long weekend, perfect for that last-minute getaway!
