Cottage vacation rentals in British Isles

beautiful location, very clean cottage with lovely decoration. great stay overall, would definitely be back😁

We really enjoyed our stay at Claire' cottage, was exactly like the photos and description and Claire was very helpful. Thanks

Really lovely cottage with spectacular views in a very tranquil setting. Jackie was super responsive and the cottage had everything you could need.

This was our second stay in Sarnau and we enjoyed our four nights as much as our first visit. The property is just lovely. In a beautiful location. Peaceful but easy to get to places. It’s extremely well equipped and spotlessly clean and with fabulous hosts where nothing is too much trouble. We find it a great location to do lots in the area and this time we visited the coast twice which is less than an hour away. Highly recommend and we hope to be back.

What a wonderful place for a peaceful break away. The house was so comfortable with all the amenities needed. The hot tub was a lovely addition too! My son, who loves wildlife photography, absolutely adored the river. He spent every possible moment down there photographing Kingfishers! I would definitely recommend to anyone who loves birds and wildlife.

We absolutely loved our stay – the amenities were top-notch and the decoration throughout the space was beautiful and thoughtfully curated. Kate was incredibly responsive to any messages and went above and beyond with lots of lovely personal touches that made us feel truly welcome. Highly recommend booking the wellness concierge experience – it added such a special, relaxing element to our trip. Also, don’t miss a visit to The Pig at Harlyn Bay – the food and atmosphere were amazing. Would definitely stay again – thank you, Kate!

We have just returned from a few nights away staying at this little piece of paradise. If you’re after a tranquil, relaxing holiday then this is the place to stay. From the house itself, to the spectacular views , the amazing pool house and the lovely, friendly neighbours, this place ticks all the boxes and more. Highly recommend visiting The Queens Arms for a meal (or just a cheeky drink), the staff are so friendly and just made our time away extra special. Malham is only a 20 min (ish) drive away and is stunning (a must see). The only thing I would advise is to make sure you take plenty of supplies (or do an online shop for delivery as we did) as the local shop is a 20min drive away. Thankyou again David, we will definitely be back.

I think this might be the best air b&b we’ve ever stayed in! So peaceful & beautiful. All the amenities you would need. We were in search of a peaceful get away with lots of great scenery, and suitable to bring our 1 year old. It hit the brief perfectly and more. It’s even better than the pictures. Thanks for a great stay, looking forward to coming again.

The oystercatcher cottage was unbelievably beautiful, peaceful, and an amazing experience. Staying right on the cliffs in Connemara with such a beautiful view, with the sheep roaming on either side of the property, was something I will never ever forget. It was also so private which was such an added benefit. It was truly a magical experience and I hope to return one day. Also the area is beyond beautiful and amazing. Driving through Connemara and doing various things in the area felt like a once in a lifetime opportunity. And the towns close by were also great (Tullycross and Letterfrack). I can’t wait to return!

We had high expectations from poring over photos and reviews of Banc-yr-Eithin prior to our stay and it somehow managed to exceed them. The cottage and grounds are breathtakingly beautiful and the facilities are incredible, you want for nothing during your stay here. Highlights include watching the birds at the feeders, the treehouse, the underfloor heating in the bathroom, the sauna, the games room in the barn, waking to the sound of birdsong, I could go on! Sussanah and Hugh are the perfect hosts, they were incredibly helpful both prior to and during our stay. We were staying with a relative with health issues and limited mobility and they were extremely helpful in ensuring that he was comfortably accommodated. They dealt with this issue with compassion, discretion and kindness. We were incredibly grateful to get to sample Hugh's cinnamon buns and they did not disappoint! They were delicious and much appreciated. Thank you for an incredible stay, we can't wait to return soon!

Beautiful place! We had the most amazing few days. The house is on 2 floors, beautiful clean bedroom on the ground floor with a fantastic on suite, large shower and bath. You can bathe with a view. Upstairs is a well equipped kitchen with plenty of equipment, a cafetière for coffee whilst sitting on the comfy sofa which looks out across the countryside and you can see the sea. Tranquil place, fantastic for relaxing and exploring.

My husband and I (and our two dogs) had our mini-moon here and it was just the relaxing break we needed. The dogs settled straight away and it's the most sleep we've had in years. Lisa was super helpful throughout and we couldn't have been more grateful for our beautiful stay away. Thanks again, Laura xx

Just had a most wonderful stay. The cottage was beautiful and cosy. A perfect base to explore the fantastic Pembrokeshire coastline. I had brought my mother here as a gift to revisit childhood holidays that we had spent in the area 40 years ago My Mum absolutely loved the attention to detail in the cottage and all the wonderful pieces of art, pottery and interesting items that were all about the place. Beautiful place!! Thanks for letting us stay. James

This place was perfect in every way for us! The views, the bath, the decor, the little touches were beautiful! It was so peaceful and cosy! Georgina went out her way to make us feel at home and everything we needed! We will most definitely be back! Thank you for hosting us 🤩

We had a lovely few days at Mison’s place. A really comfortable, spotless cottage with a fantastic view over the sea. The deck area is super and perfect relaxing or watching the sunset. Mison had left helpful local information, which made our stay even better by enjoying local eateries. We would all happily return to explore the area further. Thank you Mison.

The cottage is tucked away on a quiet lane with stunning views over the Holmfirth countryside. You can really tell that Tracey has poured so much love and care into the space, as the cottage is full of charm and thoughtful personal touches that make it feel like a home from home. Tracey has thought of everything to ensure a comfortable stay, from a generous selection of toiletries and kitchen essentials to dog bowls, treats, towels, and even spare duvets in both lightweight and heavier options. There were also hot water bottles, tea, coffee, milk, and snacks waiting for us on arrival, which was such a lovely touch. Communication with Tracey was excellent, she was proactive, helpful, and incredibly responsive, which made planning and arriving stress-free. The cottage is very dog-friendly, with plenty of walks nearby, and Holmfirth town centre is just a 10-minute walk away. I’d absolutely stay here again and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a Yorkshire getaway.

We really appreciated the milk, fresh scones and biscuits on arrival. Yvonne's recommendation for food and walking routes proved very helpful. We would highly recommend Caasie's cottage for an authentic stay in a thatched cottage.

We enjoyed our stay at Catherine’s cottage! Catherine was so responsive, helpful, and so kind throughout our stay. The cottage was absolutely beautiful with very thoughtful touches throughout. Location is perfect, especially for exploring the northern part of the Cotswolds. Our stay coincided with a few hot days, but the cottage was comfortable and Catherine ensured there were fans available to keep the air circulating. Highly recommend and we’ll definitely be back on our next trip to the Cotswolds!

Had the most lovely stay. Such a special place and village. We met many kind people, ate incredible food, and enjoyed every minute soaking up the scenery. Anne couldn’t have been more kind and considerate. Would recommend the bakery to anyone!

Nick’s cabin was perfect for getting away from London for a few days and back into nature! The place was easy to find, accessible from local airports, and matches the description exactly. The cabin itself looks recently refurbished and modern but without giving up its charm. The town of Kenmare is about a 10 minute drive away for restaurants and shops and there are several incredible hikes within a one hour drive. I highly recommend Nick’s place for anyone looking to Ireland for a weekend away (or longer) and definitely hope to be back again soon!

We had a truly wonderful stay at Catherine’s cottage. The interior deco matched the exterior terrace cottage. Very comfortable indeed. The cottage patio was a delight for morning coffee. The garden walk to see the chickens each morning was awesome. An outdoor fireplace with el fresco dining was brilliant. I highly recommend the cottage. Catherine is an amazing host.

The River Barn exceeded all of our expectations and was even more beautiful than the pictures portrayed. The River Barn was very comfortable (the bed was awesome) and all amenities to prepare meals, enjoy a BBQ or go on a picnic were readily available. The location was perfect for our purposes; we greatly appreciated the beautiful and peaceful surroundings of the property but it also provided easy access to Windemere, Ambleside, Grasmere and Keswick where we enjoyed going on several walks. We can't say enough positive comments about our host, Otto communicated with us on several occasions and provided us with lots of information --- where to eat, where to visit and nearby walks. If interested in enjoying a delicious Sunday roast, be sure to reserve a table early at one of the two pubs within easy walking distance. We highly recommend staying at the River Barn and can't wait to visit again!!

It is an absolutely beautiful place in an equally beautiful area. During our stay we walked up Snowdon (about half an hours drive away), and visited the local village Beddgelert, which has some lovely places to eat and explore. We left wishing we had booked a longer stay!

Wonderful stay in a wonderful part of the country -looking forward to our return
