St Georges Day Cottage Breaks in England

Saint George is the patron saint of England and from the 15th Century it was celebrated each year with a major and national holiday, putting it on par with Christmas! It has to be said that since the 18th Century, after the union of England and Scotland, that St Georges Day was celebrated on a much smaller scale and no longer as a National holiday.

However, the tradition of celebrating it does continue with events such as Salisbury's annual St Georges Day Pageant and the wearing of an English red rose. In recent years there has been a growth of interest in St Georges Day and if you are in England are likely to come across events as well as the flying flaga of St George.
