When travelling, it's important to feel comfortable at all times. Sometimes hotel rooms can be a bit isolating, so we recommend looking into more personable options. Cottages are great for those looking for unique travel experiences because they provide you with the reliability of a hotel room and the comfort of a true home. By showing you some of the most notable options on the market, Voyage Privé can help you find the perfect cottage for your next holiday.

Top 5 things to do on your cottage holiday

1. If in Mykonos, Go See Delos

If you're going to Greece, you should be prepared to interact with history. Delos is one of the country's notable archaeological sites and a portion of its excavations have also been declared as their own UNESCO World Heritage Site.

2. Visit the Fairytale Farm in the Cotswolds

If you want to take your family on a fun day trip that will also help you get some exercise in, you should visit the Fairytale Farm. With multiple areas dedicated to different types of play, there's truly something for everyone!

3. Tour Grand Etang Nationalpark

It's no secret that Grenada in the Caribbean is an incredibly beautiful place. However, to see everything this unique country has to offer, you'll have to go to the Tour Grand Etang Nationalpark. Interact with animals, appreciate the foliage and experience the beautiful wildlife.

4. See Alefkandra

Mykonos is known for its ocean views, but did you know that there is a neighbourhood that is often referred to as "Little Venice" due to its similarity to the iconic Italian city? If you have spare time on your cottage holiday, we highly recommend an early evening stroll around Alefkandra.

5. Kastani Beach

If you want to be at the centre of the action in Skopelos, head on down to Kastani Beach for some local culture and refreshing blue water. This beach is also referred to as "Mamma Mia Beach" due to its association with the hit film.

The Michaels Country Cottage in Skopelos allows you to be completely isolated during your stay, surrounding you with ocean views and cypress trees.

As a recently renovated 1880s property, this cottage actually sleeps 6 and allows you to experience both the rich history of the United Kingdom and the open landscape that makes up a majority of the country. Those interested in eating out will be pleased with the area's choice of pubs.

When is the best time to go on a cottage holiday?

No matter what your cottage holiday destination is, it's safe to say that the late summer or early fall is the best time to go on holiday. Not only will the weather be consistently nice, but there will be fewer people on holiday due to the fact that school and work will be starting up again. There's also a higher chance of you saving some money on your holiday because there are typically more sales after summer peak season.

Going on a cottage holiday

If you want to be efficient about your travel, taking an aeroplane is usually the best option for getting to your cottage destination. However, if you're open to being creative about your travel methods, taking a mixture of trains and buses can be cost-efficient and also allow you to see unique views on the way. No matter which transportation method you use, though, it's important to bring masks and hand sanitising wipes to make sure that you stay safe throughout your journey.

Enjoying your cottage holiday

If you want to get the most out of your cottage holiday, we recommend that you make an itinerary. Though you might have some activities in mind, there's always the possibility that some of them will be closed, so you should know in advance what you'll be doing on each day of your holiday.
