Did you know that it is possible to rent cottages located within and just outside areas of outstanding natural beauty. England, Wales, Scotland and Ireland are all beautiful green countries with plenty of opportunities for restful or activity filled holidays. With 46 areas of outstanding natural beauty throughout the UK there is plenty of choice when it comes to where to go. Or may be you prefer to holiday instead in one of Britain’s amazing National Parks, also known as ‘Britain’s breathing spaces’. Britain has 15 National Parks in total and the landscapes of these vary. Could there be anything better than a cottage stay in the national parks?
If you’re planning a self catering break for a group of hens or stags. Remember that certain properties specialise in catering for such parties and may even be able to help with suggesting activities for your group. See our page of hen and stag properties that include large country houses, barn conversions, big cottages and even cottages with pools, hot tubs and saunas. We hope you find that somewhere special. Wherever you decide to go, whether you plan to visit the West Country, the Shires or Shakespeare Country do have a great time.
