Alton Holiday Cottages

If you are looking for a modern family cottage, a romantic break in an old stone cottage or just somewhere to get away for a short time, we can help. Many of our Alton properties are in outstanding areas of natural beauty. The selection of Alton holiday cottages is increasing every year. Kids love staying in cottages and although hotels can have more facilities, there's not the same sense of adventure - and there are certainly more rules and regulations. You can get up late, stay up late, go for walks, stay inside - and eat whatever takes your fancy, exactly when you're hungry.

There are many rental cottages in Derbyshire that can accommodate you. Please try to book your holiday in advance as last minute reservations are possible but obviously not guaranteed! Choosing the right Alton accommodation is sometimes complicated when there are so many factors. Booking the right number of bedrooms is critical as although too many is a luxury, too few can be a big problem. The bed-factor can be a deal breaker - so if you think anyone might not be happy sharing with someone else, please check.

Derbyshire is blessed with a large number of very excellent holiday cottages suitable for families, couples and just friends. If you have any concerns with your booking, please contact the cottage operator directly since we are unable to help. Holiday makers often like to get out into the country and take part in open-air activities, and in Derbyshire there are number of great options. There are usually opportunities to play golf or tennis, or if you're into solo sports there's always biking, running and sometimes archery. Or perhaps you're more interested in a pint of beer, a glass of wine or a gin and tonic in a traditional country pub?

Self-catering can make a cottage holiday in Alton much more flexible, allowing you to eat whatever you want (or can cook). Whether you love cooking up a large stew, a roast dinner or just prefer a toasted cheese sandwich - it can match your mood. Most people will drive to their destination because it gives them increased mobility on their holiday. Although it's good to be able to hop in the car to the nearest town when you get there - don't you really just want to get away from it all? Trains, buses and coaches are a much more carbon friendly solution since the fuel is shared by so many more people.
