Individuals who choose to book luxury cottages either already enjoy superior standards of accommodation at home or would like a special treat, perhaps to mark a birthday or anniversary.

Luxury is a generic term and can mean different things to different people. The various tourist boards in England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales assess holiday accommodation and award a rating from one to five, 5 is the top rating.

Outstanding self catering accommodation

We also have a good number of high quality holiday cottages, not listed with Tourist Board schemes that also offer luxurious accommodation.

With luxury self-catering accommodation you can expect high quality, spacious accommodation with high standards of cleanliness and hospitality. The decor should be attractive and furnishings comfortable. When it comes to interior design, questions of style arise. Luxury accommodation can include a range of styles from chintz and traditional to sleek and minimalist and this is where the cottage photographs are important. It is too easy to make a quick decision and regret it later. Do spend some time looking at interior photographs carefully and comparing the details. It sometimes helps to make a list of what you consider essentials on holiday and check them against your shortlist of luxury accommodation. A coffee maker is essential to some people but not all.

High quality luxury accommodation is only a part of your self catering break, albeit an important part if reality does not meet expectation. Do discuss your needs with the cottage owners before placing a booking to get a feel for the level of communication and welcome that you can expect.
