Self Catering City Breaks in England and Wales

Not every cottage holiday has to be in a remote corner of the countryside or on the edge of the coast. In fact, the city break option becomes more and more popular every year due to the growing investment in cities across England and Wales, and the sheer variety of activities and sights they offer. We have a large selection of holiday cottages in some of the most exciting cities, so browse to your heart’s content or read on for a little more city break inspiration! 

If you’re into your history than a holiday in Canterbury, Kent, is a fantastic choice. Often associated with Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales and its magnificent cathedral, this medieval city is one of the most historically significant in England. Despite its multitude of historic buildings, museums, shops, pubs, restaurants and river, Canterbury is relatively small in size, making it the perfect place for a city break that doesn’t require bringing the car or filling up your days with transportation time.  

Another historic and fairly small city is lovely Norwich. As Norfolk’s only city, Norwich is a real gem. With more churches than any other city, Norwich is known for its beautiful historic architecture. Particular highlights include the city cathedral and its grounds, the Forum building and market and its impressive array of independent shops, pubs and restaurants that line its ancient streets. A great place to explore alone or as part of a longer holiday in Norfolk, we have a range of holiday cottages in and around Norwich for you to choose from.  

If you want to experience the best of city and sea, then the destination for you has to be Brighton. Famed for its long, pebble beach and iconic pier, there’s no other seaside spot like it. Brighton is also known for its LGBT+ area and nightlife and its amazing Pride events in August every year. A welcoming, friendly and vibrant city, Brighton is a great choice for those who want all the bonuses of city living with a healthy dose of sea air thrown in.  

In Wales, you’ll find our cottages near many cities, including the capital, Cardiff. At the heart of South Wales’ culture and history, this city certainly isn’t short of historic sights, notable buildings and brilliant food and drink. Among the city’s notable attractions are the Welsh National Museum, the Wales Millenium Centre and Cardiff Castle, all showcasing a different aspect of this city’s history and character.  

But these are just a few examples of cities where we offer holiday cottages, and our collection at large has plenty more to choose from. So get browsing and booking today!
