Guesthouse vacation rentals in British Isles

My partner and I stayed at Treetops over Easter weekend for my birthday and absolutely loved it. The place is idyllic and cosy with a real home away from home feel and beautiful surroundings. Sam went the extra mile for us and made sure we had everything we needed. Two other parties of guests were staying in the Shepherd Huts on site while we were at Treetops but we barely noticed, we felt connected for anything we needed but still had plenty of privacy. We will definitely be back, thank you Sam! We'd also recommend other guests do the 40min walk to Henners Vineyard for a tour & tasting - amazing views!

Emma and Ronan are fabulous hosts! Their cottage is very comfortable and has everything you need. Their children are lovely and showed us all the animals and we were able to feed the lambs! Fresh eggs from the hens in the morning were perfect. This is our second time staying here and we are booked in again for September. I highly recommend this cottage if you are visiting Ireland ☘️

Had a fantastic stay at Pristhole which is very well located in the pretty village of Stokenham, close to two pubs and roughly halfway between Salcombe and Dartmouth. Iona is really friendly and welcomed us on arrival and showed us around the grounds which are extremely well kept and the apartment was very clean, comfortable and well equipped. As a family of four with two daughters (aged 8 & 7), it was all perfect and on our first night we enjoyed a really nice walk via Tor Cross to the Tower Inn in Slapton for dinner and subsequent trips to Salcombe, Paper Bird Island/Kingsbridge, Woodlands Theme Park, Dartmouth and the nearby Stokeley Cafe and Farm Shop; all of which were great. We might just have to break our long-standing rule of not going back to visit the same place by returning to stay in future in the hope of better weather.

5 stars all round. Highly recommended. This was a great place to stay. An easy walk from the train station (<10 min). In the centre of Charlbury, only minutes from nice pubs, restaurants and the local co-op, but still very peaceful and quiet. In a lovely garden with own outside deck and table. Bright and airy. Spacious enough for two. Good shower. Comfortable king bed with crisp linen. Cozy and comfortable sitting room. Charlbury is a beautiful town with easy train and bus links to London, Oxford, Woodstock (Blenheim), etc. And gorgeous surrounding countryside with great walks. Martin and Helena were generous friendly hosts. We really appreciated a late check out so that we could enjoy a leisurely countryside walk on our last morning. Many thanks!

Jay is a fabulous host, great communication with helpful information. The accommodation was just lovely and immaculate. I will be back!

I had myself a lovely stay at David's Airbnb. The surrounding area is absolutely lovely and the host, David, is even more so. If you're looking for a place to stay, you've found it.

Beautiful accommodation with everything you need, including a luxurious walk in shower. The hosts could not be nicer and even gave us a lift to the wedding reception we were attending. A very pleasant short stay. Highly recommended! The Palmer family - Oxford

Peaceful location and gardens, v cosy little place. We enjoyed relaxing in the garden, visiting the village and nearby areas; the reservoir, Sissinghurst and Hastings. James and Sarah were very responsive to our questions and requests.

A gorgeous cottage. Spotlessly clean, beautifully decorated and so comfortable and cozy. We really enjoyed our stay and the kids loved the bunk beds. Ivor was a pleasure to communicate with throughout the booking and stay. We are looking forward to returning!

This was my second visit to Rebecca's. Rebecca is extremely helpful and responsive to any queries. The flat is spotless and well equipped. Will no doubt stay again!

What an amazing place, honestly I can’t recommend it enough, I’d rather not, but only as I want to keep it for myself! It’s beautiful, clean and extremely homely, everything you need is supplied inc. options for breakfast, fresh butter, cereal, bread, jam, marmalade, milk orange and more, that’s without mentioning the offer of fresh croissants made personally by the host! The place is beautiful, the living area, kitchen, bathroom and let’s not forget the huge balcony to take in the south facing sunshine! 3 pubs within a 5 min walk, with great locals who are so welcoming; great food provided too. Would I go again, 100%, why … as we didn’t even touch the sides of what you can do around there locally. Victoria was great, so friendly and we honestly wanted for nothing at all! The only negative …. We only got to spend 1 night there, but that will be rectified very soon as we will 100% be back! Victoria, thank you, my partner and I were blown away and we look forward to seeing you again 🥰

Had an absolutely amazing stay! The most lovely hosts! Highly recommend to anyone!

Terry's place is lovely. It was very cosy and had everything we needed for our short stay. Wed definitely stay again!

We had an amazing stay here. The cabin was beautiful and the extra touches that Hannah left for us were really thoughtful. Hannah was always happy to help anytime we text her. The pub down the road was lovely we had a great night in there. The hot tub was brilliant too. We cant wait to rebook again as we had such a brilliant time. Thanks Hannah 😊

100% would stay again, Jane was an amazing host and so welcoming and gave us plenty of recommendations for food and walks near by. Everything was spotless and couldn’t fault a thing. Jane even supplied us with milk and ice and all other basic items you would need which normally don’t come with stays like this. Also shower gel was supplied which was such a nice touch and made this stay stand out to the rest. Tobey was also so welcoming and made our mornings when he would come and say hello. Thank you for such a lovely weekend!

Lovely little place. The hosts were very welcoming, polite and friendly. Coach house was immaculately clean and tidy. Very good location and hot tub was a lovely touch. Will definitely book again.

Amazing place the best Airbnb I’ve stayed in. Everything you need . Hot Tub was perfect. Brilliant hosts. Will definitely return if we need to stay in the area and highly recommend.

What a fantastic place. We wanted somewhere to stay where we could make use of our paddle board & kayak and this was the perfect venue. Easy access to a fantastic quiet loch to enjoy the scenery. The hot tub & sauna were a very welcome treat after a day on the loch. Great location for exploring the highlands with Ben Nevis only 15 minutes away. The accommodation was excellent with absolutely everything you could need, from a lovely Scottish breakfast pack to gorgeous toiletries. The added bonus for us as a family was use the of BBQ hut. Would highly recommend and I’m sure we will be back.

The cottage was very comfortable. It was located on a quiet lane, not far from a village with a lovely pub. At the end of the lane was another pub with excellent food. Roger met us on arrival and made us very welcome. If we should return to the area, we will definitely stay here again.

Michael and Olivia's place was very clean and had all the necessary amenities for a comfortable stay. It was close to Athlone, and also along a country lane so we were able to go for an evening walk. We definitely recommend their place.

Its always a pleasure staying at Melanie's wonderful cabin. The accommodation is open plan, very spacious with a cosy homely feel. The surroundings are private and the cabin is located at the end of a long gated driveway. The cabin is close to the main house but the orientation and layout gives you total privacy with a lovely view of the gardens.

Amazing stay in the Whitterings, that exceeded our expectations. The Cabin is clean and comfortable, fully equipped kitchen, great outdoor space and we love the design. Very friendly and thoughtful host, good communication and easy to reach. Instructions and directions were excellent. Easy check-in with the key box. Perfect location for walking to the beach. We had the best time and can’t wait to come back. Thanks Mike and Sarah, we felt like at home! ❤️

We love The Pavilion! Second time here , this one for an airport overnight. It’s perfect. Super close to Horley station for fast train ride into Gatwick. Comfortable, clean, private and homely 🥰

We had a lovely stay in the annexe. It was comfortable, warm and cosy. Kirsty provided a helpful welcome pack of milk, bread, butter and cookies plus tea, coffee etc which was a lovely touch and saved us having to rush to a shop. Parking was easy and Kirsty gave good directions and local recommendations. We would highly recommended this place for a quiet stay in Suffolk. Its a great location for exploring Bury St Edmunds and the local area. We ate in the local Blue boar pub and enjoyed the tasty home-cooked food.
