Cosy Cottage Holidays
Trust us, we know – it's not hard finding a holiday cottage in a fabulous location, but it can be a bit of a struggle finding cosy cottages just the right size for two people. Who wants to pay extra for unused bedrooms and space you don't need? So we've put together a small and perfectly formed guide to the UK's best romantic retreats and cosy cottages for couples: small cottages where two people have all the space they need but no more, and bijou, romantic boltholes, where you can hunker down and enjoy a fabulous holiday just for two.
