Why Book a Short Cottage Break in Britain?

The UK is home to thousands of holiday cottages, and many welcome short break bookings nowadays.  Sometimes you may only have 2 nights, 3 nights or 4 nights available to get away for a short staycation.

There are loads of great reasons to book a short break.  You may want to relax, unwind and de-stress, and escape to the countryside, or the coast?  Short breaks can be ideal for taking some time to rejuvenate, disconnect from day to day life and immerse yourself in nature whilst you spend quality time with the ones you love.  Boost up on your feelings of wellness when you book a holiday cottage with a hot tub, spa facilities or other leisure facilities to help make you feel good.

Or instead, you may be looking to engage in some adventure, discovering new places, or visit cultural attractions in a big city?  Or maybe, you like the idea of enjoying adventure sports like hiking, mountain biking or watersports.  The choice is yours when it comes to short cottage breaks.

 

What Type of Short Cottage Break are you searching for?

Britain is home to some inspiring choices when it comes to short breaks; you may want to take a 2 night holiday, a 3 night short break or a 4 night stay.  Different properties have different short break policies, and some will only accept short break bookings outside of peak season.  Particularly when it comes to weekend cottage breaks, a 3 night minimum stay is common.  With mid-week breaks you may find more flexible options available.

Short Break Holidays Whatever the Season

Some holiday cottages only offer short breaks at off peak seasons, and only welcome weekly bookings at popular times like Christmas or during summer or the August holidays.  If you want to browse only those holiday cottages that are definitely available for short break letting at any time of year, then do take a look at the definitive list below. All of these can be rented for that short holiday of three to four days whatever the season.  

Cottages with self-catering short breaks available all year round

Short breaks can be ideal if you have less than a week available and want to spend a few days exploring an area on a mid-week short break or perhaps want to take a long weekend break.  From time to time we all need to get away from it all and focus on relaxing and enjoying ourselves.  2 night cottage breaks, 3 night or 4 night breaks can be a good option for mini holidays, particularly, if your budget is a little tight and you can only afford to go away for a short time or don't have that much annual leave available to use.  

If you're truly looking to relax and unwind then a short hot tub cottage break could be the perfect choice and early booking is recommended.  Weekend cottage breaks with hot tubs are another popular choice.
