26th March 2025

The Old Oak at Coleman's Farm

It's nearly bank holiday season! We have three long weekends coming up: Easter weekend (18-21st April), the early May bank holiday weekend (3-5th May) and the spring bank holiday weekend (24-26th May).

At least one of these needs to be spend chilling in a cute country cottage, a treehouse in the woods, or a house by the beach.

To help take the hard work out of searching, we've picked some of our favourite places with bank holiday weekend availability. Don't wait too long as they're booking up fast.
