Where to find your perfect seaside escape
The UK coastline is packed with brilliant spots for a short-notice holiday. If you want dramatic cliffs and world-famous surf, Cornwall and Devon are always top choices for a spontaneous trip. For huge sandy expanses and massive skies, a quick getaway to Norfolk is hard to beat. Or perhaps you fancy hunting for fossils in Dorset, exploring the rugged coves of Pembrokeshire, or enjoying traditional fish and chips on the coast of Yorkshire. We even have stunning properties ready to go on the Isle of Wight. Whatever direction you decide to drive, you'll find fantastic coastal cottages waiting for you.
Why book a late availability beach cottage?
There's something brilliant about dropping everything and heading to the coast. A last-minute holiday is the perfect excuse to switch off from work, enjoy a digital detox and recharge with some genuine peace and quiet. It's also a fantastic way to spend quality time with your favourite people. Need to celebrate a birthday, an anniversary, or even pull together an impromptu family gathering? A big seaside house gives everyone the space to catch up properly. Plus, booking late means you can often take advantage of unexpected cancellations and snap up a cheap cottage break, saving money while filling a free weekend with a proper seaside adventure.
