Coastal retreats

Self-catering homes, hotels and B&Bs that sit within three miles of the coast, all across the UK & Europe. You can take the sea air anywhere from the pretty fishing villages and rugged coastline of Cornwall, to the peaceful crags of remote islands in Scotland, the glitz of the Cote d’Azur and the secluded beaches in the Algarve.

All our special places to stay are personally inspected by our team and chosen for their warmth and character. You book directly with the owners, meaning no fees or fuss from us, a better deal for them and a great trip for you.
