Cottages in South England
Whether you want to escape the mainland in a coastal cottage on the Isle of Wight or you long for idyllic days spent milling around the rolling hills of Sussex, we’ve got a holiday cottage in the South of England for you.
Home to the Garden of England (more commonly known as Kent), alongside the coastal wiles of Sussex, Hampshire, Essex, and the Isle of Wight, the South of England is a grand destination indeed for a memorable holiday. Read more
A catalogue of intriguing historical buildings (including the impressive Windsor Castle and Canterbury Cathedral) and captivating landmarks make for some truly fascinating days out – not to mention the countless opportunities for watersports at one of the many beautiful beaches along the south coast. Leave the mainland behind for a self catering holiday on the Isle of Wight where you’ll find sweeping coastlines punctuated with white cliffs and gardens aplenty – as well as some truly unmissable festivals. Get lost in the enthralling history of 1066 country, sit down for a lavish afternoon tea, or spend your time in Sussex enjoying the results of a British vineyard – when in Rome! One of the best things about these southern beauties is their close proximity to London, meaning you’re never far from a weekend away or a day trip to the beach.
