When it comes to escaping the busyness of everyday life, what can be more relaxing than a retreat near a trickling river, the calming sea, a quaint canal or a scenic lake? This collection of lettings make wonderful bases for any waterside holiday whilst accommodating families, couples or friends who want to make the most of the UK's and Ireland's stunning bodies of water.

Why Waterside Breaks?

With a huge range of waterside cottages to choose from, there is bound to be something to suit your tastes. Perhaps you'd like to stay by the sea, where you can enjoy idyllic outings at the harbour, before wandering down to the beach to sunbathe on the shore, go rock pooling or surf along the coast?

If you enjoy livelier waterside breaks, then cycling or hiking along a river or canal could be ideal for you; maybe you could discover a couple of enchanting waterfalls on the way! Waterside holidays are also ideal for those angling enthusiasts seeking a secluded getaway where they can simply settle down by a lake with a fishing rod in hand.

Places to Visit near Waterside Breaks

If a coastal break is what you prefer, then why not travel towards the South West to Cornwall with its rocky beauty of Kynance Cove and surf-centric sands of Tolcarne Beach, or venture South East to Kent , home to Margate Beach and its abundance of amusements?

If beautiful lakes are more to your fancy, then a break in Ireland may be for you, with its scenic Lough Ree offering stunning views from Barley Harbour, or perhaps you'd like to visit Loch Ness in Scotland; home to boat tours through the mystical waters?

Of course, the Lake District is also a superb setting for waterside holiday cottages, with the beautiful lakes of Windermere and Ullswater beckoning sailing enthusiasts and windsurfers!

Those after action-packed breaks will certainly enjoy venturing to the Peak District , where the exhilarating activities kayaking and canoeing can be enjoyed in its waters, including Tittesworth Reservoir, the River Derwent and Carsington Water.
