Handpicked for their style and charm, our luxury self catering holiday cottages offer our guests exactly that, in breath taking locations across the North of England and South of Scotland.

Luxury Self Catering cottages

Create a holiday to remember in a self catering cottage surrounded by the idyllic natural beauty of the United Kingdom. Crabtree & Crabtree self catering cottages are handpicked for the comfort and luxury they provide and, since you'll be setting the menu, let you spend your holiday time in exactly the way you want to spend it. Venture out to sample the local cuisine in a pub or restaurant, or stay in to whip something up yourself in the kitchen: it’s completely your choice.

Create and cook

A self-catering holiday is about freedom: keep your own schedule, make your own meals, and build a special experience for you, your family, and your friends. Located throughout the north of England and southern Scotland, our self catering cottages put you in proximity to those regions’ most interesting communities, landscapes, and landmarks. Since you’ll be on the doorstep of a range of local suppliers, farms, and stores, you’ll be able to source delicious ingredients for every meal, including an array of fish and seafood, caught fresh from the North Sea.  

Any holiday, any occasion

Our properties range from cosy coastal cottages and converted farmhouses, to extravagant manors and castles, each featuring a beautifully-appointed kitchen stocked with modern appliances capable of handling everything from a humble fry-up to an extravagant feast. A luxury self catering cottage is ideal for almost any special event or occasion: bring family and friends together for a birthday or anniversary, set up a romantic candlelit dinner for two, or throw a catered party for dozens of guests in a stately dining room steeped in history. If the weather holds up, you could even dine out under the stars to make the moment extra special.

The joy of luxury self-catering lies in making your holiday unique and getting the most out of the luxury property that you choose. So, whether you’re a master chef or simply a home-cooking enthusiast, rest assured your holiday cottage is waiting for you.
