Self Catering Holiday Cottages Near a Pub

One of the many advantages of going self-catering is as the name suggests, you're able to cater for yourself. For those on a limited budget; with special dietary requirements; with young children who need to be in bed early and for people passionate about cooking, it's the ideal holiday solution. However, it's nice to have a night off cooking while you're away so we've made it easy for you to search for holiday homes within walking distance (up to a mile) of a pub. Read more

Book a cottage near a pub

Many of the cottages are located in villages or towns, where you can stroll out for supper or just have a drink whilst the dinner slowly cooks itself in the oven back at the cottage. Others are within a mile walk, so perfect for stopping for lunch or refreshments after exploring the countryside.

A trip to the local pub provides a great opportunity to experience a taste of not only the local tipple but also the way of life. Locals are normally more than happy to share their cherished cultures and traditions and it's a great opportunity to find out about local events and attractions to help you get the most out of your stay.

For foodies, the UK has an ever increasing number of gastro pubs and fine dining restaurants showcasing the very best of local produce. It also has its fair share of traditional inns serving hearty local fare and a cherished pint of local ale.

Tips: Before you book, make sure you like the look of the local pub and check it caters for the type of food you like eating and your personal needs such as being child/dog friendly. Popular places get booked up, so pre-book to avoid disappointment. If there is a little walk to the pub, make sure you pack a pocket torch so you can find your way home!
