Celebrate in style: holiday cottages for Christmas and New Year

Christmas and New Year is always a popular time for our customers to get away, whether they're escapees enjoying a quiet time away from home or entertainers holding a big celebration for multiple families and friends.

Escapees - we’ll help you find hideaways. Once there, grab hats and scarves for a blustery moorland walk and a pint at a fire-warmed pub. Stroll the coast path; ice-skate at Eden; ride the Polar Express at the Dartmoor Railway; grab your wetsuit and brave some Christmas Day surf, or just toast your toes beside the fire, put on the TV and relax.

Escapees will love A173, in Dunsford, Devon. This pretty thatched, semi-detached cottage is an extremely beautiful home, renovated, decorated and furnished with a huge amount of attention to detail. A really exquisite, sophisticated cottage on the edge of a lovely village, you'll find a good food pub nearby, not to mention pretty Drewsteignton and the marvellous scenery of the river Teign valley.

Entertainers - if you’re a crowd, book with us to enjoy some additional elbow room. Indulge in some locally grown fayre and show off your culinary skills. Set the table, roast your goose, crisp the potatoes, mash the swede (plenty of black pepper and butter) and light the candles. Christmas together… eternal.

Entertainers will be in their element at Avocet, in Bigbury-on-Sea, Devon - a spacious property with the wow factor. This huge, split-level, detached house, facing south with the most sensational panoramic views over the bay to Burgh Island and the coastline beyond, is stylish and superbly comfortable inside. Take a New Year's Day stroll along the magnificent sandy beach just 200 yards away, and warm up in the outside hot tub afterwards!

Which are you? Entertainer or escapee?

Whatever your reason for getting away over the festive season, we suggest you book as early as possible to be sure of getting your favourite holiday home. If you're looking for a big house for a large gathering, be quick!
