The places to visit page has been established to provide a source of information for those who like to plan a variety of days out and interesting activities whilst they are on holiday at our cottages in the UK. Remember going to these places and events isn’t compulsory! If you want to relax in front of the television or in the Hot tub, our cottages are fitted out to provide you with a real home from home. Many of the places we list have links through to their own web site. There’s so much to do year round! We have details of golf, fishing and shooting sporting venues. Walks by the sea and thorough the beautiful local countryside. Inviting restaurants, cafes, pubs and inns. Activities designed purely for children to enjoy like theme parks and the zoo. Places of historical interest. Places to shop. It’s so easy to even visit London for a day out! Bird watching, theatre, cinemas, even flying lessons! The list goes on and on and the enjoyment is year round. Check out the promotions and discount pages to learn more about special discounts we have managed to negotiate for our visitors!
