Cheap Whitsun Half Term Holiday Cottages

Whitsun Holiday cottage breaks

With spring in full bloom and the summer approaching, the Whitsun half term holiday is a great time to get away for some early sunshine on a cottage break at great locations across the UK.

Whit Week, as it's often referred to, is a popular time to get away as it normally coincides with the Spring Bank Holiday and the school half term towards the end of May.

It's a great time for a cottage, lodge or apartment break too, as the prices are well below the peak season so there is many a bargain to be found. So whether you are looking for a few nights away or a weeks holiday you will find some great value breaks in England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland.
