Customer service
“Holiday time is so precious - I’d book somewhere where a host or proprietor is on hand to share their local experience, and where the reviews show a track record of customer service. And I’d head inland just a bit. A purely coastal holiday is great - until it rains! Will there be something to enjoy if the weather’s not entirely on your side? Personally, I’d rather take refuge in a teashop or pub where muddy boots are acceptable than eat ice-cream in a rain-swept beach car park!”UK rural escapes
“There’s something about exploring a landscape and taking in the big to the small scale. Britain’s countryside has great vistas, which are even better if you’re not stuck in your car! Then there’s finding that fabulous coffee shop, sampling local food, or simply appreciating something beautiful right where you are, whether it’s wildlife, a local feature, or a human kindness. Plus there’s no expensive flights, no airports delays, you’re not a ‘tourist target’ - so what’s not to love!”Finding that rural bliss

Rural accommodation travel advice
We have selected some of the most useful rural accommodation travel tips that our guests have provided over the years to help you make the very most of your holiday - and the space inside your suitcase.


“When choosing a car to rent, avoid the cheapest models. The climbs to and around Panokosmos are steep in places and our Toyota Aygo sometimes had to be coaxed up the steepest sections. It's worth it when you get to the top, though.” – David Jamieson


“Consider going slightly out of season, it was nice a quiet and not crowded everywhere. Don't leave it to the last minute to find somewhere to eat / get petrol though!” - Naomi Simcox
“Ensure there is plenty of space in your suitcase to bring back as much lovely local goats cheese and other lovely French stuff! Bring your walking shoes. Use the bikes and leave the car behind as much as you can.” – Valerie Guihen
