Somerset

Somerset is best explored slowly, so the hundreds of beautiful sites, stunning views and inspiring natural phenomenon do not pass you by. This is a county where riding holidays, walking holidays and mountain biking tours thrive. The hidden haunts of Exmoor are a paradise for walkers, offering ancient oak woodlands, plunging valleys and charming villages.

Devon

From stunning Contemporary Town houses in Dartmouth, to spacious Lutyens style farmhouses, cottages and other self catering accommodation, with sweeping southerly views across Devon, one of England’s larger counties, is a blissful rural area with timeless charm and a relaxed laidback atmosphere. Devon has two coasts, huge granite tors, miles of unspoilt forests, majestic rivers and idyllic small communities.

Dartmouth sits in the banks of the mouth of the River Dart in South Devon.  With twisting streets, cobbled market squares and a range of boutique shops and galleries, the charm of Dartmouth is undeniable, and with so much to see and do, self catering Dartmouth cottages are the perfect solution for a family holiday by the sea.

Devon has an array of rustic to luxury holiday cottages, farmhouses and other holiday self catering accommodation.  Warfleet Creek is a small triangular tidal inlet in the west side of the River Dart estuary in England. It is near Dartmouth, Devon. It has steep rocky sides. At low tide there is a stony beach with some small rockpools.  The creek was home to Dartmouth Pottery, a local landmark building which has had many uses over 400 years, now converted to residential and holiday apartments.  Dartmouth is a great town to walk and you don't have to walk far to see some lovely architecture. Many houses and cottages in the town have views of the river and you'll find this one on the left as you take a stroll out to Warfleet Creek.

Start Bay lines the Eastern Coast of the South Hams.  Start Bay benefits from a magnificent coastline of high, sweeping clifts, interspaced with long beaches and ancient fishing villages now awash with colour and serving the needs of a modern society, with cafes, shops and old-fashioned country pubs. The area is popular with families, as it is within easy reach of both Kingsbridge and Dartmouth but offers many beaches, though these are mostly of coarse sand.

Wales

A newly refurbished, modernist farmhouse in Pen-y-Clip is set on the hillside overlooking the Menai Strait with views across to the Snowdonia Mountain Range.  Wales - a country often overlooked as a holiday destination for holiday makers offers a staggering amount. It is a truly beautiful place, and not just the rugged coastlines, sheer mountains and lush valleys, but the culture, tranquillity and pace of life too.

Pen y Clip is perfectly placed as a base for exploring not only Menai Bridge, but the whole region: from the Snowdonia National Park to Anglesey's great variety of beaches and those of the Llyn Peninsula. Being less than five minutes off the main A55 expressway Pen y Clip is easily accessible, but feels a world away from the stresses of everyday life.  What follows is just a taste of what Pen y Clip has to offer.

Snowdonia is an area of outstanding natural beauty. The Snowdonia National Park is known as one of the most beautiful in Britain, and includes both mountains and coastline. It is also an area famed for the number and nature of outdoor activities on offer. A Welsh holiday cottage in Snowdonia will certainly not allow you simply to sit and enjoy the view!

Oxford

Oxfordshire is a delightfully quaint part of the English countryside, steeped in history and festooned with picturesque scenes worthy of any decorative chocolate box! There seem to be two sides to Oxfordshire holidays; firstly, holidays taking advantage of the incredible rural beauty, whether by travelling slowly through it or simply immersing yourself in the warmth of the local community, or secondly, Oxford holidays sightseeing in the county’s capital city, where many centuries of history are brought to life.

The Suffolk Coast is a huge draw to self catering holiday accommodation in Suffolk. There are over 40 miles of Heritage Coast in Suffolk, plenty of charming seaside resorts and numerous sandy beaches on which to sunbathe, build sandcastles and swim. The Suffolk coast is also one of the most natural, with plenty of rare British wildlife seen in the area with reassuring regularity.
