Why not do something different this year and spend Christmas with family and friends in a beautiful Rural Retreats cottage, enjoying a festive break far from your usual surroundings?
Reignite the Christmas spirit by staying in a charming farmhouse, a seaview retreat, a country estate, or a luxury lodge. Our Christmas cottages across the UK provide stunning scenery, perfect for a post-Christmas dinner walk. Many of our properties even come with a Christmas tree and decorations, making it easy to feel festive from the moment you arrive.
Imagine snuggling up together on Christmas Eve in an atmospheric Grade I-listed manor or a renovated 18th-century weaver’s cottage. The magic of the holiday season will be felt by everyone, young and old alike.
Christmas Self-Catering Cottages
All of our Christmas cottages are self-catering, so you can enjoy family favourites like mum’s roast potatoes, unless you choose to dine out. Each property is equipped with a fully functioning kitchen, including a fridge, hob, oven, and utensils, making it easy to prepare festive meals.
To get your break off to a smooth start, a complimentary welcome hamper is included with essentials such as tea, coffee, bread, and milk.
Christmas Holiday Cottages Dog-Friendly
Christmas is a time for family, and for many of us, that includes four-legged members too. Our collection of dog-friendly cottages ensures you don’t have to leave your pets behind.
Our dog-friendly cottages are available across the UK and are designed to meet the needs of both dogs and humans. Many have enclosed gardens for safe outdoor play, cosy log fires to curl up beside after a winter walk, and some even include a stash of dog treats.
These properties are often located near dog-friendly attractions, restaurants, and scenic walks. From the mountains and lakes of Cumbria to the coastal paths of Norfolk and Suffolk, there is a perfect spot for every canine companion.
Where to Enjoy Christmas
With over 400 cottages across the UK, choosing where to spend the holidays is the most difficult decision. From the the Scottish Highlands to Penzance there is something for everyone. Options include cottages suitable for families with young children, romantic hideaways, large group accommodation, and pet-friendly properties.
Some of our cottages also offer outdoor activities such as cycling, fishing, and pony-trekking, keeping everyone entertained beyond the festive feasts. A selection of cottages is also near Christmas markets, making present shopping simple.
Whether you prefer a cottage with history or a modern luxury property, regions such as Cumbria, Cornwall, and Cambridgeshire have a festive option to suit every taste. Father Christmas will still find the children, wherever you stay.
