Short Breaks

A few days here in the West Country can feel like a fortnight, so why not come out of season? The weather can delight at any time of year; our spring and autumn can often feel like summer in disguise. So, go on, give yourself that well-earned break.

Outside the busy summer season, many of our cottages will accept bookings of six days or less. Not all cottages offer short breaks, and some can only be booked in the preceding weeks. Sound complicated? Let the Web site do the work and search for a Short Break now.
