The Best Way to Find and Book Self-Catering Holidays
If you're searching for UK holiday cottages, you can be confident that what you see on this website will match what you'll experience upon arrival. At My Favourite Holiday Cottages, we make every effort to ensure you can book with confidence. Here's why:
Get up-to-date information: Each property listed on our website has a dedicated link to its website, where you can find more photos, detailed information, availability and (in most cases) the option to book online.
Talk to the Knowledgable: You'll book directly with the owner or manager of the property, which means you can communicate with them directly, eliminating any confusion or miscommunication.
Save money! We don't charge any booking fees or commissions. You'll only pay the owner's advertised price, with no hidden costs or aggressive sales tactics.
Create and keep your shortlist: You can add your preferred properties to your personalised shortlist. If you come across a property that interests you, save it to your shortlist for future reference by clicking on the ♥ icon.
Book directly with owners: Select 'Independent Cottages' from the 'Categories' button in the top menu bar to view all independently managed holiday cottages.
Book with an agency: If you prefer to book through an agency, click the 'Categories' button in the top menu bar and select 'Agency Cottages'.
Take your time and explore our diverse selection of high-quality cottages, apartments, townhouses, castles, lighthouses, and shepherd's huts, which are available to book throughout the UK.
