Christmas Cottages

Renting a Big House in the UK or France

The holiday season is for spending time with your loved ones, eating copious amounts of food and making memories. Where better to do all that than in one of our cosy Christmas cottages and houses? Decorated with style and a whole load of character, we’ve got holiday homes that make the perfect setting for your family celebration.

Fancy spending Christmas abroad? We’ve also got magical chateaux and chalets across France.

Chateaux and Castles Collection

Whether you’re looking for a festive, family reunion or want to host a fairytale, winter wedding, our collection of medieval and historic chateaux and castles will blow you away. Bursting with style, sophistication and out-of-this-world architecture, you and your loved ones will be talking about this magical stay for years to come!

From French chateaux with private pools and classic English castles with lavish ballrooms, to Scottish castles with grand dining halls and Irish forts with tower room views, this collection will take your holiday to the next level. We’re talking snow on the turrets, fireworks in the grounds and a slap up Christmas dinner in the banquet hall – you don’t get more Christmassy than that!

Why rent a cottage for Christmas?

Our houses are in some of the most beautiful places in the UK – a quaint Christmas in the picturesque Cotswolds or a rural retreat in the Scottish Highlands could be exactly the type of holiday the whole family needs.

You don’t have to lift a finger (if you don’t want to) – from fully catered stays to Vill’Otels and hired housekeepers, our Concierge Service means you’ll be in good hands to help make your stay truly extraordinary. Some of our villas even have Christmas offers, providing all the décor you could possibly need!

It’s sometimes quite difficult to find a date that everyone is available for a holiday, and this way, you know most of the family have the same time off. So, swap your family summer holiday for a Christmas one instead!

Where’s the best place for a Christmas in the UK?

The best location for your Christmas cottage or house totally depends on what kind of celebration you’re looking for and who will be attending. From secluded manor houses in Scotland surrounded by beautiful scenery to other places in the UK & Ireland close to cities or local villages.

What winter-friendly amenities do our Christmas cottages have?

Our destination experts picked our UK houses with one thing in mind: the unpredictable British weather. So, our collection boasts a variety of facilities and amenities from indoor pools to hot tubs, games rooms, cinemas and gorgeous open fireplaces. We even have a selection of Christmas holiday cottages that are dog friendly, so your furry friend needn’t miss out!

What’s more, some of our cottages have catering included, but we can also help organise catering if you want to truly celebrate in style (and leave the dishes to someone else!)

If we wanted to head out of the UK for Christmas, where’s best?

If you’re looking for snowy and cosy, you could head to France on a ski holiday; we have a lovely collection of chalets in popular resorts. Or you could go for the ultimate Christmas break in a fairytale château. And if you’re avoiding the cold weather completely, we’ve got Christmas cottages and houses in warmer parts of the globe, too. Christmas in a tropical paradise, perhaps?
