South West England has to be one of the UK's favourite hot spots for summer holidays due to the high concentration of incredible beaches and a climate that’s significantly warmer than the rest of the UK. It’s no myth; the sea in the South West is actually warmer thanks to the exotic currents of the Gulf Stream that flow into these shores. One of the best coastal resorts is Cornwall offering a wealth of fabulous beaches, many that are designated 'Areas of Outstanding Beauty' with upmarket favourites including St Ives and Carbis Bay whilst Newquay caters for keen surfers and late night revelers. Finding somewhere to stay in this popular South West coastal region will be the least of your worries with so many Cornwall cottages by the beach for rent, many with sea views and direct beach access.
Further south you’ve got the calm shores and estuaries of Falmouth and Fowey whilst up north there’s the surfer’s paradise of North Devon with its famed family friendly surfing havens like Westward Ho! and Croyde where you'll find plenty of large Devon beach houses to stay in. Then there’s the English Riviera with its quintessential resorts that include Torquay, Paignton and Brixham, great places to relax and unwind in style. Further east you can head for the grand iconic Jurassic Coast of Dorset where there is a fantastic mix of traditional and trendy beach holiday spots that are quite simply perfect as a seaside escape. If you are thinking of visiting the likes of Bournemouth, Lyme Regis or Sandbanks then you might want to check out the many Dorset beach cotages advertised with us, many that are pet friendly and large enough for groups.
