Beachfront Holidays & Cottages
Renting a beachfront cottage or villa is the ultimate in holiday accommodation for those who want the quintessential beach holiday experience - family friendly, great for activities, perfect for a romantic retreat where you can soak up the coastal vibes and listen to the sea.
Nowadays, when it comes to choosing a holiday, we are overwhelmed by choices. It isn’t a simple process anymore – should you try your hand at glamping, rent an eco-house in Scotland, or find a trendy houseboat or treehouse somewhere? But sometimes, you don’t want anything outlandish or wacky. Sometimes you just want to be somewhere with a beautiful view where you can completely switch off and relax – and this is where beach accommodation, beachside cottages and accommodation with direct beach access come into their own, whether you're looking to stay in England or go further afield. From cabins to castles, glampsites to luxury villas, if you've got a view of the sea, and a beach on your doorstep, what more could you ask for?
Of course, deciding to search for beachside cottages doesn’t exactly mean narrowing your options – let’s not forget that there are beaches of all shapes and sizes all over the world. Where do you want to go? Would you prefer a beachfront cottage in the UK? Or do you want to head for the white sands of a beach in southern Europe? The world is your oyster! If your idea of heaven is a classic English seaside jaunt, then head for Cornwall, which has miles of coastline dotted with accommodation with direct beach access. Or how about a beachfront cottage in Ireland, with walking trails which wind from your doorstep and wildlife all around you? And beach accommodation in Wales is always a popular choice – you’d be hard pressed to rival the rugged splendour of the Pembrokeshire seashore. The Scottish islands are another obvious choice. Places like Skye, Shetland and Orkney face the sea on all sides and have a desolate beauty which is hard to replicate and impossible to forget.
Imagine waking up to an expansive sea view, taking a stroll directly from your beachfront cottage along the golden sands, or a scenic walk along the coastal paths. Much of the beach accommodation in the UK is also dog friendly, and of course, more often than not, child friendly too. Whether you’re looking for accommodation with direct beach access, or a clifftop villa with panoramic sea views, our beachfront collection will have something to suit you.
