When planning a self catering holiday it can sometimes be a dilemma trying to decide whether to stay inland or to stay by the seaside. Staying by the sea can often bring back pleasant childhood memories and is a popular choice for families as many children love paddling, building sand castles and splashing around when weather permits. Rural areas in Britain can be great too, there are various dramatic landscapes to visit inland in the UK including the Lake District, Peak District and many parts of the Scottish highlands. The great British countryside can be just fantastic for walks and activities like horse riding, rambling and cycling. Where you decide to go will depend on whether you love the lull of the sea or peaceful country living. Both have lots to offer. Wherever you decide to go we hope you have a perfect self catering break.
Travelling abroad and staying in Europe is certainly not cheap nowadays and in many cases the cost of eating out and enjoying days out is higher in Europe than at home in the UK. Understandably more and more people are now choosing to holiday in the UK or are choosing cheaper destinations overseas such as Turkey or Poland which still offer comparatively good value for money for Brits. Many of us in England have never been to some of the countries within the UK such as Scotland, Wales and Ireland and each has something special to offer visitors. If you decide to holiday in the UK this year then a cottage or self catering break could be a good choice. If you shop around and get competitively priced self catering accommodation, you can very often save by eating in and sharing accommodation as a group. There are some excellent country cottage break offers around currently. See our special offer section to find out more about available offers.
Did you know that in the most recent British Travel Awards Cornwall won the prestigious Best UK region award? Not only that, St Ives also won the award of the best seaside town in the UK. With accolades like that, who wouldn’t love to take a self catering country cottage holiday in Cornwall? The Eden project of course is also a big attraction in Cornwall and the Lizard Pensinsula is a recognised area of outstanding natural beauty. Of course winning an award doesn’t necessarily mean that Cornwall is the best place in the UK to holiday. What constitutes the best place will differ depending on who you ask. Some people love the solitude, peace and beauty of Scotland for example and some love to return to the same resort year after year because a certain place just captures their heart. But one thing is for sure, from the British Travel Awards, Cornwall comes highly recommended.
