The phrase ‘good for the soul’ probably means vastly varying things to different people, especially in relation to a holiday. Some may envisage rural escapism, others may picture a deserted beach, and perhaps your idea of a restorative retreat involves sunrise yoga, luxurious spa treatments or a reconnection with nature. Whether you’re looking for adventure and activity or silence and serenity, we’ve got an excellent selection of One Off Places that will help you soothe your senses…

It’s been a tough few months. And although the people of the United Kingdom have done an incredible job of turning negatives into positives (bread-baking, knitting, yoga, creative writing, touch-typing - you name it, we’ve done it), lockdown has been hard and we’re all looking forward to regaining some freedom.

Here in the UK, we're inching closer, little by little, to the gradual lifting of lockdown.  As at today, the self-catering holiday industry is hoping to be able to restart, in some form or another, in early July.  Of course, things may change, but in our opinion, there's no harm in a bit of dreaming, in the hope of the dream becoming reality.  Today's blog post highlights four of our favourite remote properties, three in Scotland, and one in Greece.  

After a busy, draining and seemingly non-stop few months I was certainly in need of some R&R and that is exactly what I got at Candlestick Cottage, one of our newest One Off Places.

Last call for a New Year's Eve getaway!  Scroll on to see late availability in 24 of our glorious One Off Places, sleeping from 2 to 25 people.
