| 2020 |

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?

The Cottage Beyond

Cae Du

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. 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

Alma Grange

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.

Atlantic View

Bodnant Estate

Tunstall Road Farm

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).

All Premier Cottages’ properties are regularly visited and checked by their relevant national tourist board. This ensures that the property is what it says it is, as verified both by independent third party inspection, and by our own rigorous membership criteria, which includes inspection of all prospective new member properties.

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.

National tourism awards With an outstanding portfolio of properties, Premier Cottages has a great pedigree of long standing in the VisitEngland National Excellence in Tourism Awards. VisitEngland didn’t run any national awards in 2019, but 2018 saw Wallops Wood (Hampshire) win in the Dog Friendly Business of the Year category, and Cottage in the Dales (a 2017 winner in the Self Catering Category) was awarded a bronze in the Inclusive Tourism category for their exceptional new accessible property – The Dairy. Meanwhile, the coveted VisitEngland ROSE (Recognition of Service Excellence) Awards – of which only 100 are bestowed annually, and include not just self-catering accommodation, but also pubs, hotels, B&Bs and guest houses – were won by another 6 of our members this year (and 10 last year), which is a testament to the very high quality of our portfolio. The ROSE Award is a Lifetime Award, which has been running since 2015, and now more than 10% of our members have been accorded this honour.

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 | 2020

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. You can drop us an email to feedback@premiercottages.co.uk, or use the feedback form or Livechat on our website. Happy hunting!

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. Trewidden House

Beacon Hill Hideaways

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 (384) Dog-free cottages (406) Baby-friendly cottages (343) Accessible cottages (81) Family-friendly cottages (705) Just for Two romantic cottages (437)

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.

Wallops Wood 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. Assisted wheelchair users If you're a wheelchair user and travel with a friend or family member who helps you with everyday tasks, this logo applies to you.

Thatch Close Cottages

Visually impaired and blind people If you have difficulty reading small print, are registered blind, have poor sight or a visual impairment, accommodation with this logo is suitable for you.

Cottage in the Dales

www.bodrugan.co.uk Located within one mile of the picturesque fishing village of Mevagissey, in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Bodrugan is home to five lovely cottages, located on a coastal, working farm. Rowards sleeps two, and is a romantic retreat for two adults overlooking 40 miles of coastline. It has a modern feel and a fabulous bathroom where you can lie in the bath and admire the gorgeous view through the French doors.

Boats can be slipped in at Portmellon, and the coast path beckons walkers. Heligan, Eden, Caerhayes, Gorran Haven and Mevagissey are within a few minutes drive, and there are many pubs, cafes and restaurants nearby in the picturesque village. A special place to stay for couples or families, and a dog is allowed in some properties – please call. WiFi is available in all cottages.

All our cottages have firepits with a barbecue rack so you can enjoy al fresco dining. Each cottage also has garden furniture so you can kick back, relax, and enjoy a glass of your favourite in the sun. All cottages have access to the heated indoor swimming pool and the footpath through the farm which leads to the most delightful secluded cove, where fabulous rockpools are teeming with marine wildlife, in a little bay which is safe for swimming.

Rowards

Shellseekers and Rockpool are a pair of semi-detached, recently refurbished cottages each with three bedrooms, a garden, and driveway parking. Swallows is situated close to the pool and looks at the pond – the cottage has two bedrooms and central heating with a log fire, and a new kitchen for 2020. Stables sleeps eight guests in six en suite bedrooms, and is an ideal hub for large family gatherings, or two families to share. Mevagissey Bay

Two charming and stylish barns for couples, 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 gorgeous 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.

This is what makes Old Barn such a great retreat.

On the ground floor we have wide bi-fold doors, one king double 5ft (Hypnos) and one single 3ft bedroom and an accessible ground floor bathroom. There is a small step up into the kitchen but this is highlighted. There is also level access to the south facing gardens which provide plenty of space for relaxing outside.

The 15th century barn is converted for light, space and comfort, and retains historic features including gorgeous travertine bathrooms and a granite kitchen. The interior is decorated in a luxurious, modern style. The property has oak flooring and underfloor heating. The barn is very quiet and secluded; the rolling hills and narrow wooded lanes are a barrier to 21st century life. The area abounds with wildlife – you can observe stunning species such as lizards, hedgehogs, and the spectacular red deer, which congregate in the adjoining fields at certain times of the year. In our fields, or around our pond you might find a shed antler … we have! There is a log burner for cosy evenings, and everything is done with the comfort of our guests in mind.

A walk from the door through the farm where you can join the Wye Valley Walk and head for a choice of pubs! If you fancy getting out why not explore the Brecon Beacons or canoe down the Wye.

Gaze out of the window at our pedigree herd of cows or sheep, lie in the hot tub with a glass of fizz or sit by the log burner with a good book! Excellent country pubs on the door step, endless beautiful walks in the Dales and all within easy reach of historical cities such as York, Harrogate and Durham. Why not take the children to nearby Camp Hill for a climb in the treetops or a ride on a Segway or quad bike, or to our local theme parks of Lightwater Valley or Flamingo Land? Thorp Perrow is very close by too with its breathtaking gardens and falconry. There is something to suit everyone.

No expense has been spared in the renovation of these three beautiful farm buildings that are full of character and charm. Equally suited to a large gathering of friends and family as a quiet time away with a loved one. We believe the social space of a house is so important, therefore all three houses have been designed so none are overlooked, and each has a large kitchen/diner/living area but with separate snugs too. The Farmhouse has its own large private hot tub, patio and lawned area. Galloway House a private courtyard and Greendale Lodge a private patio and lawn.

Cape Dutch armoire in the upstairs living room

Surrounded by woodland and fields, Tyas Cottage is Grade II listed and one of three properties within a secluded hamlet in Merrydale. It was here, in the late sixteen hundreds, that the first water-powered mill in the Colne Valley was built. Our nearest village, Slaithwaite, is a delightful half-hour walk down Merrydale Clough. Tyas Lane, an ancient packhorse route, leads through steep woodland to a good restaurant pub. Furniture includes a hand-carved antique (Georgian) 4-poster bed and Cape Dutch armoire. The spectacular first-floor living room opens onto a balcony with a swing seat above a barbecue area for the sole use of guests. There is a large shared garden. It contains a millpond, sculptures, a stream, waterfall, swings and a picnic table.

Here there is something for everyone from walking and bird watching, surfing and coasteering, to ruins of castles and abbeys, family days out, live theatre and local boat trips to find the bottlenose dolphins and puffins. Paul Jeeves of The Express wrote, ‘An indoor swimming pool and spa alongside a well equipped games room, outdoor play areas and a gym helped the whole family get into holiday mode. The children, even my too-coolfor-school 13-year-old, really didn’t want to leave their new found friends (human and four-legged) behind’. ‘The hard work and passion Andy and Sylvie put into Croft Farm are evident for all to see and their warm welcome made us feel instantly at home.

Five award-winning luxury cottages and four luxury log cabins in North Wales

Rivercatcher

Log cabin

Flyfisher’s Cottage

Gezellig bedroom – log cabin


|

Wales

www.rivercatcher.co.uk A collection of five award-winning holiday cottages and four luxury 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. For the keen cyclist we have a lock-up facility for your bikes, a place to clean them, and local route and trail information. Private hot tubs in all cottages

Romantic luxury cottage – glorious tranquillity, stunning scenery, wildlife

Relax by the pond

A world away from the busyness of everyday, experience the peace and grandeur of the mountains and the glens; a restful retreat for anyone and a perfect 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. 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.

The Minack Theatre is set into the cliffs at Porthcurno nearby. Experience a show sat under the moon and stars whilst gazing out to sea and even catch a glimpse of a pod of dolphins swimming by. St. Michael’s Mount is a fairytale castle steeped in Cornish myth and legends in Mount’s Bay and coastal towns and villages like St. Ives and Penzance are all less than half an hour away. Boskenna – this is Poldark country, Rosamund Pilcher country and the location for ‘Summer in February’.

There’s even a glass-panel roof above the bed, so you can spend cosy evenings watching the stars glisten from under your thick duvet. The styling of Merino Shepherd’s Hut is charming, with a soft grey and warm white colour palette that sits elegantly next to the stripped wood. Add to this the beautiful textiles – from pure wool cushions and cosy sheepskins to beautifully dressed windows. A handsome woodburning stove adds more character – not to mention keeping the hut super cosy, even in the depths of winter. There’s also an en suite shower and toilet, and we provide luxury soaps and shampoo. Guests will benefit from full use of our facilities here, including our indoor heated pool, sauna and games room!

Full mains shower room

Shepherd’s hut heaven at Beacon Hill

Our luxurious shepherd’s huts are a perfect haven for two adults of any age!

The bedroom has a luxurious five foot double bed and a Smart TV; from your bed you can look through a large window towards the beech wood and the sea – which is eight miles away. The adjoining bathroom has a shower, loo and basin.

Beautifully located in a south facing wildflower meadow, our Hideaways are built to house building standards – unlike most shepherd’s huts! The 360 acre estate is teeming with wildlife … the walks in the 40 acre semi-ancient beech woods or to Meg’s Lake are magical.

The living area has a combined microwave/oven, a halogen hob, a fridge and Belfast sink and masses of utensils. There is a Bose Bluetooth speaker and a digital radio.

The Hideaways are 32 feet long and have three rooms and a westerly facing terrace. It’s a short walk on a woodchip path to the Spa – you can even walk there in your slippers! The Hideaways have mains drainage and electricity – there is WiFi.

Heating and hot water are provided by a combi boiler and radiators and there is also a log burning stove – everything is provided in the cost.

Hideaway heaven with a view!

Glamping 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
