Why Choose a Large Holiday Cottage in the UK?
Staying in a large holiday cottage is the perfect way to bring everyone together under one roof. Whether it’s a multi-generational family gathering, a big celebration, or a catch-up with friends, these properties offer the space, comfort, and privacy you need.
Unlike booking multiple smaller cottages or hotel rooms, a big property means everyone can enjoy time together - sharing meals in a spacious dining area (all properties have dining space to match their capacity), relaxing in generous living rooms, or making the most of gardens and outdoor spaces.
Our collection includes large cottages with hot tubs, indoor pools, and dog-friendly properties, so you can tailor your stay to exactly what matters most to your group.
