Why Book a Short Cottage Break in Britain?

The UK is home to thousands of holiday cottages, and many welcome short break bookings nowadays. 

Maybe you have less than a week available to take a mini break, and want to spend a few days exploring an area on a mid-week break or want to book a long weekend away?  2 night cottage breaks, 3 night or 4 night breaks can be a good option for mini holidays, particularly, if your budget is a little tight and you can only afford to go away for a short time or don't have that much annual leave available to use.  

If you're truly looking to relax and unwind on a short staycation holiday then a short hot tub cottage break could be the perfect choice and early booking is recommended.  Weekend cottage breaks with hot tubs are another popular choice.

 

Escape to a UK countryside retreat or a coastal cottage 

There are loads of great reasons to book a short British cottage escape.  You may want to relax, unwind and de-stress, and escape to the countryside for a tranquil rural retreat break, book a secluded lodge by the lakeside or a cabin nestled securely in a forest?  Or perhaps you want to enjoy a few days by the coast? 

Short breaks can be ideal for taking some time to rejuvenate, disconnect from day to day life (maybe including a digital detox), and immerse yourself in nature whilst you spend quality time with the ones you love.  Boost up on your feelings of wellness when you book a short stay in a UK cottage with a hot tub, spa facilities or other leisure facilities to help make you feel good.

Or instead, you may be looking to engage in some adventure, discovering new places, local trails and villages, markets, and local traditions and cuisine, or visit cultural attractions in a big city for a few days?  Or maybe, you like the idea of enjoying adventure sports like walking, hiking, fishing, cycling, mountain biking or watersports on a quick country escape?  The choice is yours when it comes to short cottage breaks.
