Waterside Cottages

Fancy a holiday in a riverside cottage? View these waterside holiday cottages in the UK. Waterside cottages offer handily located self-catering accommodation for holidays by the riverside, the shores of a lake or alongside a canal towpath. Generally, with lovely views (and the occasional friendly duck for company), waterside properties are suitable for holidays at any time of year for families, groups of friends or a romantic escape for two. Perfect for spending days walking, wildlife spotting, fishing, messing about on the water in canoes, sailing dinghies, or feeding the ducks. Find riverside holiday cottages on the Norfolk Broads or overlooking a scenic South Devon estuary such as Dartmouth and Newton Ferrers. Then there's the Lake District in Cumbria or a whole host of waterfront holiday cottages on the shores of lochs in Scotland. Whether you want to walk alongside a river, lake or canal or indulge in a spot of paddling along an estuary shore, there's something about the tranquillity of a cottage within the sight and sound of water to create a relaxing holiday.
