Luxury Cottages to Rent in December
A truly magical time of year for a UK holiday, December brings the opportunity to wander empty beaches, admire beautifully illuminated harbours and villages and cuddle up in front of the fire with a glass of mulled wine and the fire blazing. Read more
Ah, those crisp mornings and cosy evenings. If you love the countryside and are looking forward to lots of walks surrounded by frost-laced greenery, our rural retreats will be just right for you. Or, how about our sea view cottages? Known for notoriously dramatic weather, December can bring with it some truly breath taking storms which are amazing to watch from the comfort of a home-from-home. Escape the hustle and bustle with a break in the run up to Christmas, or book yourself a festive getaway to celebrate Christmas or New Year.

We’ve been raising the standards of self catering holidays since 1977.
Our family ethos
Tony and Clare Tregoning started the business back in 1977 and their dedication to quality and excellence is at the heart of everything we do. Tony is sadly no longer with us, but we still adhere to their original ethos of finding holiday homes we would like to stay in and have slowly grown the company to find the best picks of properties across the counties. Plus Clare still drops in to keep us on our toes.
As an independent, family-run company, we wouldn’t expect you to stay anywhere we wouldn’t want to stay ourselves. And we’re pretty picky. We want you to walk into your handpicked holiday home and say ‘wow’, sit back and relax.
