Welcome to Premier Cottages Welcome to Premier Cottages – the finest collection of four and five star graded self-catering accommodation in the British Isles and Ireland. No other group of self-catering properties has as many independent awards for quality, accessibility and sustainability (see pages 12-15 for more details). There are no booking fees and all Premier Cottages properties offer all-inclusive pricing (see pages 8-9). What is Premier Cottages? Premier Cottages really is different. It’s not a booking agency. It’s an organisation of independent self-catering holiday cottage owners, brought together by the shared aim of providing the very highest quality self-catering holiday experience. Established in 1997, Premier Cottages now represents nearly 1,000 cottages in England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland.

Crag House Farm

Many other cottage collections claim to have the best properties, however, at Premier Cottages we can substantiate our claim with a consistent and unrivalled record of both regional and national award-winning cottages. This fantastic track record reflects the hard work and commitment of our owners who, as professional self-caterers rather than second home owners, are passionate about providing a top quality experience for their guests, and whose aim is to ensure that you have a fantastic holiday. For a list of our most recent award-winning cottages, see pages 12-15, or visit www.premiercottages.co.uk and click on ‘Award-winning’ in the footer navigation to view them all.

Four and Five Star Premier Cottages only accepts properties graded at high 4 or 5 Star by their national tourist board, and acceptance into Membership is based purely on quality, not a willingness to pay for advertising space. In addition to achieving a 4 or 5 Star grading, each new property is also assessed by an experienced Member before acceptance. Only exceptional properties with owners who understand that the priority is the guest experience are accepted.

Four Star Very good to excellent standards throughout, with high quality co-ordinated furniture, fixtures and fittings. Ample space with well-planned layout of furniture; high quality and very good range of kitchen equipment.

Five Star

Flear Farm Cottages

Exceptional and outstanding levels of comfort throughout, with an excellent range of items. High quality furniture with striking interior design. An excellent range of kitchen appliances, cookware, crockery, cutlery and utensils, all in pristine condition.

Gold Award VisitEngland’s unique Gold Awards are given in recognition of exceptional quality within a property’s star rating, or for outperforming a star rating. Full details of the grading system for self catering can be found at: www.visitenglandassessmentservices.com/wpcontent/uploads/PDF/3.10-Self-Catering-Standards.pdf

A great deal more is included … Premier Cottages has the most generous all-inclusive package of any comparable business in the UK. A full list of what we include at every property in our collection is detailed on the opposite page. No hidden charges or booking fees Premier Cottages does not charge any booking, guests or service fees. If the price of the break is advertised at £595, then that is the price that you will pay. There are no budget airline style hidden charges or fees. Recently, many other websites offering self-catering accommodation have started introducing service fees or guest fees. These are, in reality, booking fees, added to the quoted price of the break, mostly hidden until the final moment of online booking, and payable to the company running the website, not the owner. These can amount to 25% of the price of your holiday, and can be many hundreds of pounds. Premier Cottages does not charge these.

The Hyning Estate

Old Barn Tregonetha

South Coombe Country Cottages

Additionally, many self-catering websites give you a headline price, just for the property. If you want the beds made up, towels provided, stair gates or cots, these will be added to the headline cost. For a cottage booking for six guests for a week this can add hundreds of pounds to a booking. With Premier Cottages, you can rest assured that the price you see is the price you pay (though charges may apply for additional services such as dogs, catering, spa treatments etc. – check individual cottage for details).

No hidden charges with Premier Cottages. See our ‘all inclusive’ pricing policy on pages 8-9

| Premier Cottages | 2019

All Premier Cottages’ properties are regularly visited and checked by their relevant national tourist board.

Most of our owners offer short breaks either throughout the year or outside the peak season. Owners displaying this symbol offer a mixture of short breaks, from long weekends, midweek breaks and in some cases totally flexible stays. Check with the owner direct for details.

Website and search filters

Website

Search filters

www.premiercottages.co.uk

Our website is designed to make it easy for you to find your perfect cottage. You can search by date, by location, by number of guests, by region, or by collection. So if you want to see all our dog-friendly properties in Cornwall that sleep 6, just enter the details in the Search box (with or without dates). It will show you all the results that match your criteria, and if you enter dates, it will only show those available for those days, and display a correct price. That saves you wading through properties that aren’t available, or don’t match your budget. Click on any cottage you like the look of to see its full description and details, such as photos, location map, local attractions, reviews, video, and 3D tours. Use the View on map button at the top right of the results to see all the results displayed on a map, so you can see their location.

No hidden charges with Premier Cottages. See our ‘all inclusive’ pricing policy on pages 8-9

| Premier Cottages | 2019

You can also use the ‘search filters’ to refine your search. This lets you choose from lots of criteria to find a cottage to suit you. We have over 80 different filters, under six different headings: • Accessible (includes properties graded under the National Accessible Scheme for mobility, visual or hearing impairments, and also those with at least one ground floor bedroom) • Family (lets you choose specific features, such as outdoor play equipment, soft play, babysitting, etc.) • Dogs (lets you find properties with enclosed gardens, dog-free cottages, and those where dogs are welcome)

Refine your search

• Services (includes things like catering, supermarket delivery, on site shop, etc.) • Property features (enables you to identify properties with features such as bike storage, real fires, all en suite bedrooms, etc.) • Facilities (lets you choose properties with facilities such as swimming pools, tennis courts, hot tubs, pubs within walking distance, trampolines, etc.) The ‘regional search’ lets you see all properties in a region, or by county, and gives you the option of seeing all the properties on the map, as well as giving local area information, and an events calendar of things that may be of interest.

Regional search

Collections

Finally, our ‘Collections’ pages let you see all our cottages in a particular collection (e.g. dog-friendly, just for two, accessible, etc). You can then search within the collection by date or size, and use the filters to help identify your perfect cottage. If you would like help, we also have a manned phone line you can call on weekdays between 09.00 and 17.00 on 0117 325 8810, or you can drop us an email to feedback@premiercottages.co.uk, or use the feedback form on our website.

Premier Cottages l Collections to inspire you Many guests prefer to choose their perfect holiday cottage based on the type of property that fits their particular requirements, rather than just see all cottages available for a particular date. South Coombe Country Cottages

Higher Wiscombe

Our ‘Collections’ group together all cottages that meet a specific set of criteria, making it easy for you to browse through them all. You can then refine your search by adding in the number of guests, your preferred dates, and your chosen region or county. You can also use the View map button to view their location, or add criteria by using the Refine my Search button to access our 80+ additional filters. Our current collections include the list below (number of cottages in each collection shown in brackets): Dog-friendly cottages (413) Dog-free cottages (435) Baby-friendly cottages (360) Accessible cottages (76) Family-friendly cottages (735) Just for Two romantic cottages (446)

Dog-friendly is our most used collection, but if you don’t like dogs, or have allergies, then we have a collection for you too. The Baby-friendly collection identifies cottages which provide loads of extra baby kit, not just the usual cot and high chair (which can save you some boot space!). Green Getaways are cottages which are all accredited by the Green Tourism Business Scheme, so you can holiday with a lighter carbon footprint. If you’re having a big reunion, then you can either look at Single Large Cottages (does what it says on the tin, with single properties sleeping 10-20 guests) or Great for Groups, which includes combinations of cottages on one site to sleep up to 39 guests, but where you can all dine together in the same room.

Accessible Cottages The National Accessible Scheme We understand that guests have different requirements, so try to make it easy to identify suitable properties for everyone. We have 456 luxury holiday cottages with ground floor facilities, with at least one bedroom, bathroom and living quarters on the ground floor, which is great for those who don’t like stairs, and perfect for adventurous toddlers! We also have a wide selection of cottages suited to guests with different access requirements. We use VisitEngland’s National Accessible Scheme to identify those properties which meet specific access criteria. This means you can be sure that those properties with the relevant ‘yellow badge’ will meet your requirements. Use the Refine my Search filters on our website and select Accessibility to choose cottages which are part of the scheme, and also to find those which have all ground floor facilities. Please check individual property details or contact the cottage owner to ensure the property meets your requirements. Older and less mobile guests If you can climb a flight of stairs, but banisters or grip handles would make this easier, look out for this logo.

Thatch Close Cottages

Part-time wheelchair users If you have problems walking or can walk a maximum of three steps, or need to use a wheelchair some of the time, this logo applies to you. Independent wheelchair users Similar to the international logo for independent wheelchair users. If you’re a wheelchair user and travel independently, look out for this logo.

Benallack is a range of traditional stone barns, dating partly from 1600, in private grounds and beautiful countryside near the historic village of Grampound. Perfectly located for exploring Cornwall, between the north and south coasts, the barns are a wonderful escape for people seeking peace and quiet, yet with easy access to all corners of the county. Two beautiful cottages, each sleeping two, are set around a Mediterranean style courtyard and surrounded by stunning four acre gardens. Tastefully decorated and furnished with country antiques, The Bullpen and The Dairy have everything you might need for a perfect break: from woodburning stoves, powerful showers, luxurious super king-size beds and fully equipped kitchens to local maps and welcome provisions. Babes in arms can also be accommodated and we welcome well-behaved dogs.

These two beautifully converted barns for couples, and couples with a baby, are hidden away down a farm drive in the idyllic Cornish countryside. Bramblings and Skylarks are arranged around a courtyard, each with a secluded patio to lap up the sun. Each barn also comes with the comforts of a boutique hotel with a sleigh bed, roll top bath, designer lighting, luxury soft furnishings, oak floors and fizzing woodburners. This wonderfully peaceful rural location is just a few minutes from the enchanting creeks of the south coast and a short drive from the rugged coastline of the north coast. An orchard lies just beyond the courtyard, framing a glorious view of fields. The National Trust’s Trelissick Gardens is five minutes away and there are three lovely village pubs nearby.

We can arrange meals for the fridge or a personal chef, newspapers, dog walkers, babysitters, bicycle hire and spa treatments. There is plenty to do nearby from breathtaking walks direct from the door to visiting historic towns, great pubs, houses and gardens.

www.llanfendigaid.co.uk Llanfendigaid has been owned by the Nanney-Wynn family since earliest records began in AD 1241. It occupies one of the most attractive stretches of Welsh coastline in Snowdonia National Park. The facilities include a 28’ x 14’ indoor heated swimming pool together with access to one of the more secluded beaches in the area. There are four properties on the site: Llanfendigaid, Stable Cottage, Dove Cottage and The Cow Shed which can accommodate up to 31 adults and 5 infants in cots. We welcome all types of groups including extended families, group of families, single families, couples, sailors, walkers, golfers, charities, low key hen and stag parties, school trips and management training courses.

The first two sleep 4 in two bedrooms and The Cow Shed sleeps 6 in three bedrooms. Dove Cottage has its bedrooms and bathroom on the ground floor as does The Cow Shed. Opportunities abound nearby for walking, golf, sailing, bird watching, climbing, touring cycling and mountain biking. Nearby Tywyn (5 miles) has a sand and shingle beach and is the terminal of the Talyllyn Railway, one of the famous ‘Little Trains of Wales’. Aberdyfi (7 miles) has a first rate golf course, excellent sailing, good pubs and 5 miles of golden sand and dunes. We can arrange full or partial catering, if required, for any of the cottages. Two well-behaved dogs are welcome in Stable Cottage and The Cow Shed only. View over Llanfendigaid

Llanfendigaid, a Grade II* listed family home, sleeps 17 in nine bedrooms and is set in an acre of lovely wooded gardens. It is surrounded by a further eight acres of shared grounds with magnificent views of beautiful scenery. The interior has been more recently improved whilst retaining its character; it boasts painted panelled walls, antiques, fine family portraits and a number of interesting items collected during travels around the world over the last 200 years to help give guests a truly memorable Welsh holiday experience. Close, but not intrusively so to Llanfendigaid, Stable Cottage, Dove Cottage and The Cow Shed share its attributes as far as location goes.

Wales

www.rivercatcher.co.uk A collection of five award-winning holiday cottages and four new log cabins. Set in the Welsh countryside on the banks of the River Dee each with private hot tubs. Our location means that we have access to some great places and attractions in North Wales. Snowdonia National Park has many walks, and for the adventurous, a zip wire just under a mile long that has you exceeding speeds of 100mph. Locally there are many mountain biking trails, rivers for white water rafting, walks, waterfalls, and not too far away numerous beaches and lots of Welsh castles. If you’d rather just relax then you can take a seat in your private hot tub and enjoy the views of the meandering River Dee and the undulating Berwyn mountain range.

Customer reviews: ‘Thoroughly enjoyed our stay, well equipped and fabulous countryside views. The location is beautiful and peaceful with lots to explore in the region and very little traffic on the roads making cycling and walking a pleasure. Highly recommend.’ ‘The whole family enjoyed our week at Rivercatcher. The location was idyllic and we laughed so much at the antics of the newborn lambs in the adjoining fields. We couldn’t think of anything that would improve it! Evenings watching the snow on the hills and the river rushing past from the comfort of the hot tub, then drying out around the log burner … Perfect.’ Shepherd’s Cottage

Each Rivercatcher cottage and log cabin has its own private secure garden with private hot tub and shares the extensive surrounding gardens and riverside walks of its small estate. Our games room ‘The Lodge’ is accessible for all guests and can be used for large groups for dinners and other celebrations. You’re never far away from good food at Rivercatcher, with a Michelin star restaurant in the village less than half a miles walk away, as well as good local pubs and a fantastic organic farm shop with restaurant.

Romantic luxury cottage – ideal for walking and golf

Relax by the pond

Come away to the land of the mountains and the glens; the perfect retreat for up to four guests or a peaceful hideaway for couples. Scampering red squirrels twenty feet from your door step, colourful goldfinches and spotted woodpeckers at the bird table, a hare loping across the lawn, and, if you are lucky, maybe a wandering deer or a mercurial stoat to surprise you: many of our guests come just to relax and enjoy the wildlife in our tranquil three-quarter acre garden. However, if you want to stretch your legs to recharge your batteries, there are opportunities for walking, cycling, skiing, fishing, golf, riding, or even bagging a munro or two. With many excellent golf courses within a few miles, and Gleneagles, St Andrews and Carnoustie each an

hour away, this is a golfer's paradise. Half a mile from the cottage door you can join the Cateran Trail, made famous years ago by bands of cattle thieves but now offering the walker peaceful breath-taking landscapes. There are plenty of options for lake and river fishing, including the River Isla running alongside our garden, and for winter activity the Glenshee ski slopes are only twenty miles to the north. Scone Palace and Glamis Castle are not far, and there are plenty of museums, art galleries, concert halls and theatres in Perth, Dundee, Pitlochry and Edinburgh. The newly-completed Dundee V&A is not to be missed. Spacious well-equipped kitchen/ dining/sitting room; ground floor twin bedroom; wet room; upstairs en suite bedroom with super king-size bed.

Both treehouses have large gardens with a wooden play area, barbecue, private hot tub and shared use of indoor heated swimming pool every day from midday. Apple Treehouse welcomes well-behaved dogs.

Our glamping owners all have 4 Star or 5 Star bricks and mortar cottages in the brochure, so they know what makes a great self catering offering. Their glamping offerings are quirky, original but extremely high spec and comfortable. These are all listed twice in the index – once in this Glamping section and once in their region, so you can find them with the list of other properties in the area. GLAMPING Beacon Hill Hideaways
