Riverside and lakeside holiday cottages

Riverside and lakeside holiday cottages

From tranquil escapes on the banks of the River Fowey to lochside cottages in Scotland, there’s something rather lovely about a getaway by the water. Feel your stresses and strains fade away with your waterside stay, best spent soaking up the glorious views, watching the local wildlife, indulging in sun-drenched waterside picnics, and kayaking or paddle boarding along the glassy water. Sounds just perfect, doesn’t it?

Our exclusive ferry discounts will make your island trip with Classic plain sailing.

We have 65 self catering riverside and lakeside cottages in UK
