Cottage vacation rentals in English Channel

Lovely 4 night stay over Easter. The house is exactly as the photos show, beautifully decorated and clean. Hot tub was fab and a great place to watch the sunset from. Use of the property’s fields immediately behind and In front of the cottage, was an added bonus and a lovely area for the dog to roam safely and the children had a fabulous time rolling down the grassy slope. Highly recommend to anyone wanting a peaceful break from the world, with the darkest most starry skies, I have ever seen! Fab time. Thanks

We had such an amazing time staying at Liberty Barn. Tracey was extremely helpful and flexible when we were held up in traffic. The place was a rural paradise, and we so enjoyed the spa and sauna.

We had a great stay here. Lovely lodge and beautiful surroundings. Would definitely visit again and recommend to others.

We had a fab stay, thank you! Hot tub first thing in the morning next to a field of donkeys and ponies catching the morning light - what more could you want?? We had a lovely, relaxing stay here. Family of 4. Kids aged 7 & 9. The outdoor sandpit & play equipment would be more suited to younger kiddies but our two still enjoyed them & they were just happy with the jacuzzi really. The owners were very welcoming and informative. Gave some good recommendations… Esme’s tea rooms in Brockenhurst was one of them. Yum! Best scotch eggs and cake selection ever! Would have given 5 stars, but the decor could do with a little refresh & kitchen equipment was a bit of a mish mash. Bring your own salt and pepper, sugar and tea, too. Hand soap and washing up liquid was provided.

Had a fabulous stay at Olivia’s Orchard cottage. Lots to do with farm animals around, Games room, outdoor games and lots of walks to relax and unwind at the property. Property was in proximity to Plymouth and Looe and found it very convenient to explore by car from here.

Escape bubble, peaceful, clean, cozy accommodation, tastefully decorated, private sauna and jacuzzi are real bonuses.

A great place to stay for an escape from the city. Beautiful surroundings, peaceful and the wood fired hot tub is a great bonus. Very clean bathrooms, a good, functional kitchen and one of the comfiest beds I’ve slept in made for a fantastic stay. Rhys was very responsive and helpful, a real gem in the countryside.

We had a wonderful weekend, so quiet and peaceful. The cover on the hot tub was an added bonus as even though there was a storm, we managed to still sit and relax in the hot tub. Joy was the best host, very detailed instructions on how to get there and check in with an abundance of local information prior to arrival so we were able to plan activities ahead. Greeted us upon arrival and was so friendly and helpful explaining where everything was and how to use it. We had breakfast at the Railway Kitchen in Axminster which was delicious and very cute place, we would strongly recommend if you are visiting. The accommodation was beautiful and spotless on arrival, Joy really thought of everything! We would definitely return and recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing break to escape from busy life.

We had a great stay in the house. Our group was 4 adults, 2 children and a dog and it was the perfect size for us all. The house was very comfortable and well equipped with everything we needed. The location was very peaceful and so quiet at night we all got great sleep. We visited Bude, Clovelly and Widemouth over our 4 day stay and it was perfectly located for them. Roger provided all the information we needed beforehand with guides to everything we could possibly need. He also responded to messages straightaway. The hot tub was a nice bonus and easy to use. We were lucky with the weather and enjoyed sitting in the garden. I can't think of anything that would have improved our stay, I would definitely love to return.

We spent a wonderful 5 days at Hesmonds. Stephanie’s instructions/directions sent prior to the check in date were clear and helpful. There was a lovely welcome pack of the essentials such as milk, bread etc waiting for us upon arrival. The cottage was comfortable, clean and had everything that we needed. It is in a beautiful location and has its own private entrance as well as space to park the car. It is within walking distance of the local pub, coffee shop and village store and a short drive to lots of lovely villages as well as the south coast. We will definitely come back to visit again.

We had a fantastic stay! The house actually looked even better in person than in the photos. It had so much to offer—cozy fireplace, BBQ, and a lovely outdoor bench area that made it perfect for relaxing. While there is a train railway nearby, it didn't bother us at all and didn’t take away from the peaceful vibe. Would definitely recommend this place!

Had a great stay, lovely area, accommodation was perfect for us, would consider it again when visiting our favourite part of the world. Plus perfect host.

We had a nice relaxing break. It was a lovely cottage with beautiful surroundings. Sally was available for us when we needed anything. The directions she gave made it very easy to find. Wouldn't hesitate to stay there again.

Firstly thank you Paul & Sarah for your directions. If you put the cottage post code in to your sat nav it will have you carrying out a U turn on the A31 so please note the directions given. The cottage is in a lovely location and was cosy, well furnished, well equipped and clean. The garden was lovely and great for our dogs but small dogs can squeeze through gaps in the fence (Paul is aware and is planning to block off any escape routes). There were fresh tulips and shortbread to greet us, which was a lovely touch, as well as lovely toiletries. Paul & Sarah were responsive to any queries or needs we had. There are lovely walks through the forest right on your doorstep. There is an outdoor hose for washing muddy footwear and paws. There are outside lights but the torch inside the cottage came in handy. We would happily recommend the cottage for a relaxing break.

This is my second stay and Bree was a great host.

We had such a great time at Caroline’s cottage, the location is stunning and the cottage felt immediately like home. Caroline has thought of everything and it’s the little touches which really made our stay, fresh local milk in the fridge, lovely soaps, shower gels etc. Extra rugs and a spare lead for our dog, and even a bat detector which our son really enjoyed. Overall a fab experience, we’ll definitely be coming back

Debra and her daughter are lovely and friendly. The cottage is idyllic and so peaceful. The walk to and from the car is lovely in the morning looking over the fields in the distance. The linen and towels were all lovely and fresh and the hot tub was kept immaculate throughout our stay . It was chilly in the evenings and the fire was cosy. We will definitely return . Thanks Debra .

Simple and efficient communication with Delphine, ideal setting close to the sea, clean and well arranged accommodation. Ease of access by car and baby supplies available: we'll be happy to come back!

Our stay at Sivel cottage has been wonderful. The cottage it's self is beautiful, clean and perfect for a couple. The grounds are peaceful and stunning. Lorraine and Glen, our hosts were incredibly friendly and attentive. We could not have asked for more. Thank you so much for a wonderful week.

Perfect rental for calm and birds chirping. Proximity to Avranches and the coastline.

Very clean space. Neat layout and decoration Very cocooning. In a peaceful village. I recommend it.

Really lovely place with stunning scenery. Very well appointed with all amenities. Loved seeing Deer outside our bedroom window. Great to have dogs so well catered for. Highly recommend - we really enjoyed our stay.

It is a comfortable and clean home and very spacious. I felt welcomed and loved. Paula surprised us with some snacks and breakfast food. I really recommend it.

We had a wonderful stay in Brittany at Denzil's place. We really enjoyed the special touch on arrival for us as well as for our dog. The beach is ready, the small garden is very nice and the adorable neighbor with whom we spent some time to take out our respective animals Everything you need is there, we particularly loved the skylights in the room that allowed us to enjoy the full moon. I can only recommend this great place, we'll be happy to go back!
