England Cottages | Places to Stay in England

April 24, 2023 Nicolette Lion

Home to ancient market towns and iconic cities, rolling green hills and dramatic coastlines, England is the place to be. Soak up the cosmopolitan vibe of Liverpool, Manchester and Bristol; be captivated by ancient legends in medieval York and the spa city of Bath; and explore England’s largest National Park (the Lake District) or Dorset’s majestic Jurassic Coast. Get up-close-and-personal with royalty in Windsor, explore the castles of Kent, or wander the hallowed halls of Oxford University.

Reviewed By SarahSadler

We have stayed at Middlewick a few times - and it never fails to provide rest and restoration for myself and my family. The cottages that we have stayed in are always comfortable and clean. Our favourite is Tor View and also the E-dens. The available walks are unbeatable and reconnect us to nature. The site and staff are friendly and welcoming. And did i mention the spa and new farm shop. We have many precious memories of our stays here and Middlewick always has a little je ne sais quoi.

Stunning Cottages for family celebrations

Reviewed By holidaysrusPlymouth

Stayed at Glebe House Cottages in March 2022 for a 50th Birthday celebration. On arrival we were presented with a bottle of prosecco which was a really lovely touch. Complimentary Jams in the cottages along with teas, coffee’s were a lovely touch too. The cottages were really well equipped, every thing we needed and more. We took our two dogs and felt that we were really welcome at Glebe House with them. This is really important to me as they are my world. We used the games room and the tennis courts which were great. Jay and Sarah are lovely people and are clearly very proud of what they have achieved at Glebe House. Really grateful that we were able to get together with family in a really lovely setting. We are hoping to make it our annual trip. Thank you for a lovely stay. x

Polean Farm Cottages

Pretty landscape, disappointing overall

Reviewed By Dreamer821325

I feel bad, but this is an honest review. We arrived to some confusion about which cottage we had booked, and very kindly they ended up offering us the farmhouse instead of twinkles as it wasn’t suitable for us. That part was great. But unfortunately the rest left me very disappointed. The pictures on here are extremely misleading, we paid the price because we expected an interactive experience with lots of play and animals for our toddler, the reality is you arrive to an empty farm with nobody to greet you and we saw nobody the entire time we were there. We came on a weekend and it would seem nobody works there on the weekend, which for a holiday place is extremely odd as surely many people visit over weekends? There was no ‘legendary tractor rides’ no feeding of animals no pony rides, just a pretty landscape a coupe of chickens, two goats, and some jumpy unfriendly Guinea pigs. We make the best of everything and still had a nice time but if you are expecting lots of interaction and animals you will be sorely disappointed. We enjoyed the bbq in our garden and my daughter liked the trampoline. The house was lovely and clean, I think a few tweaks are needed to bring this place up to expectations for many, to make it worth the large price paid.

Gem of a place

What a great venue for a holiday in and around the north yorkshire moors /heartbeat area.Graham and Kirsty have thought of everything to make these cottages a home away from home ,you needed to take nothing but yourselves and of course food but the cottage had everything else and you even got a welcome cake to settle you in.The facilities on site were great our 6 yr old grandson loved the well stocked playroom,and had to be prised out of it so we could go out.There was a table tennis table under cover and a trampoline ,swing, tractor den and slide and a football area with goalposts in the outdoor play area all of which were equally as popular. There is also an indoor pool with an integral jaccuzzi and,sauna and each cottage was allotted a private 1 hr slot each day or there were open sessions available.equally enjoyable was the animal feeding sessions on a morning ,after feeding the sheep and goats outdoor you could then feed and pet the rabbits and guinea pigs,dont know who loved this more our grandson or his mum!!! All in all a brilliant holiday for all ages thanks again kirsty and graham and all the staff

Fabulous weekend away here

Reviewed By Sue J

This was our first visit to Broadgate - an extended family weekend away. We were all delighted by the standard of the accommodation and the lovely countryside it is in. Walkington village, about 20 mins walk away, boasts 3 pubs - perfect for a walk and refreshments. Beverley a few miles away is a delightful small market town with a very good selection of shops/cafes and Saturday market. Further afield in Hull, there are lots of museums and a fabulous aquarium, where we spent a very enjoyable 2 hours. The houses themselves are very well equipped with luxurious bedding and towels, extremely well resourced kitchens and quality furnishings. It really is so nice to stay somewhere with this level of consideration to comfort and attention to detail. Many thanks Elaine.

We have a collection of exceptional, luxury holiday cottages, all privately-owned and in the most enviable coast and countryside locations of beautiful Northumberland. Some are situated in the heart of medieval villages and towns like Warkworth and Alnwick - others are located in equally beautiful locations including Rothbury, Bamburgh, Alnmouth, Amble, Beadnell, Seahouses, and in the heart of the Northumberland National Park.

Whether you're looking for a luxury base for a walking holiday, or you want to be within walking distance of a great pub, restaurant or fabulous beach, or you just want to get away from it all in a secluded luxury bolt-hole - 'cosy' or 'contemporary', 'bijou' or 'grand' - we have the perfect cottage for you! Sleeps 2 - 20, pets welcome at most, free wi-fi.

Puffin View in Amble is superb booked through coquet cottages

Reviewed By Pamela J

Immaculate, extremely well provided with high quality furnishing, equipment, crockery, everything one could need. Ideally situated on quiet road overlooking dunes and sea, but an easy walk to shops and restaurants. Great base to explore Northumberland coast. We were just 2friends who enjoyed our spacious en-suite bedrooms, but we could see how well this would work for 3 couples or a multi-generational group. Two sitting rooms would allow for separation at times. Sheltered rear garden is quite a suntrap. We had dinner outside on two of the long evenings. Lovely welcome hamper was the finishing touch.

North Hayne Farm Cottages

8 Self catering cottages with private hot tubs and an on-site children's farm with daily animal feeding activities. Autism Friendly.

Wonderful Family Friendly Holiday

Reviewed By Jon H

North Hayne Farm is a wonderful place to switch off and focus on family. Plenty for the little ones to be entertained with, animal feeds, exploring, a games room, plenty to stimulate them - definitely a place that goes the extra mile. Plenty for the bigger ones too, wonderfully clean and comfortable accommodation. We stayed in Jeremy Fisher, as well as being spacious and with everything you could require it was accessible and the hot tub was a delightful treat. The reviews on here speak for themselves - we had planned to visit surrounding places of interest but it was so nice at North Hayne Farm that we only made it out once!
