Many families with children and dogs find it difficult to find a place to stay over Christmas to celebrate a Christmas get-together. Most people just do not have a home large enough for these special festive events. A variety of holiday cottages dotted around and near Devon is shown that would be lovely for a Christmas break. All welcome pets and also have a woodburner or open fire for a cosy time in the darkest part of winter.
Devon is an ideal Christmas destination. There are lots of villages and towns that are dressed with greenery for the season, there are beaches for breezey walks, carol concerts in country churches and good cheer down at the local inn. Buy holly and mistletoe to decorate your holiday cottage the traditional way. Most cottage owners provide a Christmas tree. There is the advantage of visiting National Trust and English Heritage houses in their festive finery, of Christmas markets and fayres.
Wrap up warm, take the children and dogs for long walks along rural lanes. A crackling log fire and hot drinks await back at your Christmas cottage.
