Cottages with wood-burners
Who doesn't love the roar of a crackling fire? After a day out exploring, whether it be walking a scenic coastal path or cycling through woodland, there's nothing better than relaxing in front of a roaring fire, or curling up in front of one with a good book. More and more holiday cottages in the UK now have open fires and wood-burners – from romantic eco-retreats and secluded waterside log cabins, to country escapes perfect for families and unique seaside spots. Here are our top picks of cottages with fires and wood-burners – let the flames mesmorise you whilst you snuggle up on a comfy sofa.
