Coastal retreats

We’ve personally inspected every one of these self-catering homes, hotels and B&Bs that sit within three miles of the coast all across the UK & Europe. You can take the sea air anywhere from the pretty fishing villages and rugged coastline of Cornwall, to the peaceful crags of remote islands in Scotland, the glitz of the Cote d’Azur and the secluded beaches in the Algarve.
