Twickenham Holiday Cottages

Wherever you visit, you can usually find a good variety of places to stay; we realise that this isn't just restricted to cottages and that there is competition from b&bs and hotels. Cottages are usually found in country villages and areas, but can be modern as well as traditional. Cottage holidays have a unique feel to them and there are more and more cottages available in Twickenham. 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. The freedom to be able to come and go as you please, being able to cook your own food, or just being able to sleep in as long as you want.

Some of the best cottages in Twickenham are available for rent. The busiest times of year will be around the school summer holiday, so if you don't have kids, you may want to avoid July and August. The choice of Twickenham cottages is very broad so its important to understand what you need in advance. There's no doubt that being in the right town or village is a big factor, but the number of beds you need is more so. Before you book, be clear on how many people need separate beds as if you're travelling with friends, they may not be up for sharing double beds!

The best Richmond upon Thames Greater London properties have been operating for many years and have developed strong local reputations. If you want to query any part of your booking you should get in touch with the company that took your reservation and sent you a confirmation email. Although we can't promise this for all our cottages in Twickenham and Richmond upon Thames Greater London, many of them are very close to a number of outdoor facilities. 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?

The best thing (at least as far as we're concerned) about staying in a Twickenham holiday cottage is the self-catering. It's great to cook your own food, know exactly what ingredients are going in, and enjoying the reward of a great meal. Without a doubt the main way holiday makers get to their cottage is by car, because it's the easiest. With the rise in petrol and the cost of wear and tear on your car you should consider other options. Buses and coaches are often surprisingly good value, and a train journey will take you through countryside you'll never see from the road.
