site map Self-catering Country Cottage Holidays in England
England continues to be a popular tourist destination for visitors from around the world. It's a 'green and pleasant land', with more documented history than almost anywhere. Our historical buildings go back centuries; some complete with ghosts and chilling tales. The Royal Family continues to provide pomp and ceremony, scandal and tragedy. We have a unique culture, and numerous places of interest for tourists to visit and things to do.
There is a list of UNESCO heritage sites in England that are considered worth saving for posterity. All of these offer interesting places to visit in England and good for days out during your self-catering holiday.
An English self-catering country cottage is ideal if you wish to explore a particular part of the country, for example London, then Stratford-upon-Avon and the Lake District. Cottages can be rented for complete weeks or short breaks. They give you the freedom and space of home in a level of comfort that you select. You may like to experience a 17th Century traditional cottage, a baronial hall, or something more modern with a pool. The choice is yours. A hire car will enable you to get around easily and make sightseeing simple. All cottage owners will be pleased to be able to help and advise you about their area.
Plan your route and then start arranging accommodation in your selected English counties.
