Coastal cottages
There’s nothing quite like heading to the coast for a dreamy getaway. With golden sands, pretty fishing villages and gorgeous coastal walks on your doorstep, a holiday by the coast is something you will remember forever.Read more
With a cottage on the coast you can take advantage of being beside the sea, whether it’s just for the two of you or for the whole family. There are great adventures to be had, from trying out a new water sport such as kayaking or coasteering, to exploring the coast path. And if you simply want to relax on the beach with a cold drink in hand? Well, we don’t blame you!
Coastal spots come with a great choice of local food, from freshly caught seafood, a hearty fish and chips and fine dining too. So you won’t be short on places to eat…
We have coastal cottages in Cornwall, Devon, Somerset, Dorset, Pembrokeshire, the Isle of Wight, Yorkshire and the Scottish Highlands, so there’s plenty of places to choose from for your coastal holiday. Plus, we have dog friendly cottages so that your dog can make the most of the sea for a swim and a game of fetch on the sand.
