The government announcement has been made and from the 4 July the hospitality sector can open their doors to start trading again. Prior to this news, Classic Cottages were already experiencing an increase in demand for summer self-catering holidays.

We expect the demand to increase further following the statement made on the 23 June with the self-catering industry being a popular choice across our beautiful British landscape this summer.

With new properties joining our portfolio as well as some existing properties still available for this summer, Classic Cottages has a collection of beautiful places to book for July and August. Please read on to see a few of our favourites. Alternatively, feel free to get in touch and we'd be happy to help with your enquiry: press@classic.co.uk or 01326 331879.

About Classic Cottages

An exclusive portfolio of places to stay, handpicked in the best locations from the tip of far west Cornwall across the south of England and over on the Isle of Wight, Classic Cottages find holiday cottages to get excited about.

From bijou fishermen's cottages on a harbour's edge, to sprawling country pads, we're picky about what we offer so you can be sure you're always getting the best. Holidays with hot tubs, properties that welcome four-legged friends and homes set up with babies in mind all feature in our eclectic mix of home-from-homes.

Whichever property you choose, we want you to want for nothing. All of our properties have an over-the-top minimum inventory as standard, with more than enough teaspoons, hairdryers and all the fluffy towels and bed linen you need. Get ready to be wowed when you arrive; put the kettle on, feet up and…relax.
