What to check before booking a cottage for couples

A romantic break means something different to everyone. For some, it is a quiet cottage with a fire; for others, it is a waterside apartment close to restaurants or a dog-friendly base for long walks.

  • Sleeps and bedrooms: A cottage for couples may sleep more than two, so check the bedroom layout and living space.
  • The setting: Check whether the property is rural, coastal, central or remote rather than relying on a broad location description.
  • Features that matter to you: Confirm details such as a hot tub, log burner, garden, sea view or nearby pub on the individual listing.
  • Short-break availability: Minimum stays and changeover days vary between properties.
  • Travelling with a dog: Check the property’s specific dog policy, including numbers, charges and any garden restrictions.
  • Getting there and getting around: Consider parking, public transport and whether local amenities are within a practical distance.
