There is something really enjoyable about staying in a cosy cottage with a friend on holiday, where you can cook and enjoy cooking meals together after a day of exploring the delights of your new destination. Nottinghamshire is home to plenty of one bedroom cottages that sleep two for a relaxing and pleasant self-catering holiday, and you and your best friend can enjoy the delights of this county before coming back to your comfortable accommodation and getting away from it all.
Going on holiday with a friend
Going away to stay in Nottinghamshire with a friend mean that you will need either a one or two bedoom cottage depending on whether you both need your own private bedrooms, or do not mind sharing the one room. A one bedroom property is probably less expensive although it also depends on location and quality of the accommodation. Your cottage might feature twin beds in the bedroom, or even a four-posters for a bit of character but then you would need two bedrooms so that you can have one each. Holiday homes in Nottinghamshire can be a bit 'olde worlde' with lots of period style and features. The bathroom facilities are another choice to be made, some cottages come with both a power shower and a bath, or you could decide on a property that has a Jacuzzi in the bathroom for the days when you want to pamper yourselves! A popular choice in accommodation that sleeps two is to opt for two en-suite bedrooms.
A country cottage in Nottinghamshire that has a garden
If you’re visiting Nottinghamshire during the summer months, picking one with a private garden with decking and furniture is perfect, as you can sit on the sun loungers with a good book when it gets hot, soaking up the sun. Some also feature barbecues which are always an exciting bonus to have! You and your friend could cook up a feast fit for King John or if you cannot be bothered, go in search of pubs serving food. Whatever kind of property you go for, it will be better for having a good friend to share it with.
Nottinghamshire is a brilliant place to visit for a short break or even a week
Nottinghamshire can be found in the East Midlands region of England and is home to a mixture of vibrant cities, quant villages and enchanting forests. The city of Nottingham is a must-see with its castle and market area, but places such as Mansfield and Newark-on-Trent are also worth the visit. If you prefer the countryside when on holiday then Sherwood Forest, home to the legend of Robin Hood, is beautiful to visit, and you can participate in outdoor activities such as archery, walking and wildlife-spotting. Whether you are planning on staying in the heart of a bustling market town or you’d prefer to stay somewhere surrounded by rolling fields and soaring trees, you will be able to find it in Nottinghamshire.
A holiday the way you like it
You and your companion might have been on a self-catering break in the past, but if this is your first time then you might never look back. You do not really get to know another person very well until you spend a few days with them. On holiday, you can really go at your own pace as you make your cottage your own, waking up whenever you like and preparing a breakfast you know and like spending time with. Some days might be lazy, or the weather might let you down (Nottinghamshire is in England!) and you might both choose instead to snuggle up on the sofa in the living room of your cottage and watch a film, not even leaving your accommodation for a whole day! On the days when you decide to delve into what Nottinghamshire has to offer, however, you will come back to a warm and relaxing environment that is safe and secure and feels like home.
