Cottages in the South West
Start browsing our collection of lovely self catering holiday cottages in the South West and discover your next magical stay… From sea view cottages in Cornwall to dog-friendly cottages in Devon, there’s a charming cottage waiting for you.
The South West of England is a patchwork of beautiful scenes and vistas, making it a popular holiday destination whether you want a hearty walk or a relaxed day on the beach. The South West Coast Path skirts all the way from Minehead in Somerset through to Devon, Cornwall, and finishing at Poole Harbour in Dorset, and provides 640 miles of contrasting coastline, from the dramatic North Cornwall to the balmy shores of South Devon.Read more
Heading inland, you’ll find a wild and wonderful selection of National Parks, stunning gardens, and acres upon acres of idyllic English countryside, all of which provide plenty of opportunities for a scenic stroll. Explore the many superb pubs, restaurants, and cafés that make the most of the incredible fare grown and produced in the South West (cream tea, anyone?), or simply sit back with a refreshing cider after a soul-quenching soak in some Roman baths. For storybook towns and villages that act as the perfect setting for your day out, explore the Cotswolds for chocolate box scenes and history aplenty.
