If you’re looking for a solo trip or couples getaway to remember, why not enjoy it at a small cottage? There are a considerable range of small cottages to choose from here, ranging from countryside hideaways to city-centre apartments; perfect for any occasion!

Why a Small Cottage?

When it comes to small cottages, styles vary and include charming cottages, often with atmospheric features like wooden beams and tiled floors. Attractive outdoor areas at a small cottage may take the form of flower-filled courtyards or pretty lawns with manicured borders; both wonderful spots for dining alfresco-style. Other small cottages are more contemporary in design, with lots of shiny chrome, wooden floors and possibly open-plan living. It really depends on what kind of thing you're looking for!

These small holiday cottages are truly ideal for de-stressing and detoxing from the hustle and bustle of life, often enjoying access to sleepy villages, enchanting forests and stunning coastal spots. What are you waiting for? Treat yourself and a loved one to a relaxing getaway at one of these small cottages.

Places to Visit Near These Small Cottages

Small cottages benefit from being moments away from the UK’s beautiful and fascinating locations. One of the best locations for a solo trip or couples break is Cornwall. Here, you have a wealth of amazing sights on your doorstep in the form of idyllic town, subtropical beaches and miles of stunning countryside.

More small cottage destinations include:

Cotswolds

Dorset

Lake District

Norfolk

Northumberland

Scottish Highlands

Snowdonia
