Cottage holiday rentals in Western Europe

Lovely place and just as it was described. Cooked steak and shrimp on the grill one night and everything worked fantastic. Very close to town-ate out at the Altana Rooftop Lounge on Friday night and it was a very nice location downtown. The bed was firm and one of the most comfortable I’ve slept in (on the road) in years. The deck and hot tub facing the creek was perfect Overall a wonderful trip we look forward to coming back Thanks for being a great host!!

Enjoyed our stay at Vanessa’a lake house. It was absolutely beautiful inside and out. We enjoyed the hot tub and watching the wildlife in area. This place is the perfect spot if you’re looking to check out the hot springs as well.

The location was stunning. Enjoyed watching the sheep romp about. It was the perfect retreat for a girl’s weekend. Highly recommend!

We LOVED IT!! Definitely coming back when the weather is nicer.

So relaxing! We are always so busy and on the go, so this was the perfect spot for us! Private, and quiet; we enjoyed how peaceful it was. The space was super cute and clean and had everything we needed. Did some fishing, relaxed in the hot tub, and ate at a couple of local restaurants, The Wellwood, and The Forge. The only thing we didn’t enjoy, was leaving! Looking forward to going back! ❤️

The Lighthouse Lakehouse was very cute and cozy. It was so peaceful eating my breakfast on the deck every morning - staring out at the water and listening to the sounds of nature. If you want tranquility, this place is it. My teens enjoyed paddleboarding on the lake each evening. We spent the majority of our time at the AirBnb, but also enjoyed scenic hikes to nearby waterfalls and touring Blanchard Springs Caverns. It was the perfect start to our summer.

This Airbnb doesn't just look like it does in the pictures -- it feels like it does in the pictures. My wife and I could not have been happier with our stay at this beautiful property. Everything just worked, and the hosts provided lots of nice little touches. You can tell that they put a lot of thought and care into taking care of their guests. One especially neat part was the gentleman that greeted us at the property, Alex, one of the family members who helped build and now runs the property. I ran out of characters, so I had to cut this review short, but, long story short, I'd recommend taking Alex up on his restaurant recommendations and his tour of the cloud forest. Alex quoted us a very affordable rate for a group tour, but that day, it turned out to be just us and Alex. Alex had such positive, pura vida vibes, and my wife and I had a great time learning about the flora, fauna, and the history of Monteverde. I have zero reservations recommending this property. Pura vida!

The place was amazing....it rained for us, but we enjoyed it just the same! Back yard was so nice. We used the hot tub in the rain and it was great..loved the view out the living room windows as well as the windows themselves! Would return with pleasure!

We wish we could have stayed longer than one night. I could have spent all day sitting on the enclosed porch and watching the birds. It was so peaceful and relaxing. We also enjoyed the turtles in the pond. The cottage itself had everything you could possibly need. We felt right at home. We really enjoyed our time here.

Jeffrey is very kind! We were unable to stay there due to the lake conditions and flooding!! He was very kind to refund us due to the lake conditions! We will try again next summer! Well worth going back when conditions are good.

This was a beautiful location, the home was very comfortable. The host was very polite and responsive. I would recommend staying here to anyone looking for a peaceful stay in a cabin on a river.

We loved staying at the Airbnb! It was close enough to KC that we could do things, but far enough removed that it felt remote and comfortable. Would definitely recommend to anyone who wants a chill, quiet night after adventuring all day. Jim and his partner were very responsive and helpful! Thank you!!

Beautiful private space on a quiet road. Neighbors seemed friendly and the view towards the waterfront (facing West) was gorgeous. Private dock was lovely and interior of the space was welcoming, comfortable and clean. Curt was courteous and responsive when we had to deal with some issues from a neighboring renter. Home is a short 10-15 mins drive to restaurant and the Tobermory harbour. We really enjoyed our time at Curt's home and would love to come back another time. Thanks!

The Stone Cabin came highly recommended from a friend. After visiting and staying for a weekend I can truly appreciate and understand why. My wife and I reserved the cabin for our anniversary weekend. We heard it was a place to disconnect from the world at large and connect to each other and the outdoors. The cabin made it feel like stepping back to a simpler time and a slower pace. Renee met us at the gate and led us back into the property, a fire already started at the fire pit outside the cabin. Since it was our first time visiting she showed us what we needed to do for lighting and stove use, asked us if we had any questions, provided us with information to reach her if we needed anything, and then wished us a wonderful weekend.A must see is the sunset at the gate. Bring some snacks and drinks and enjoy the gorgeous view, make yourself a little fire there if you want to. My wife and I absolutely loved this place and already started talking about a return trip.

A beautiful spot overlooking the water. Provided a well needed couple of days R & R.

My husband and I stayed at Kevin’s place for a couple days in early June for a quick city getaway. Kevin was super responsive from the beginning all the way to check out and was a pleasure to communicate with! He is a fascinating well-travelled host with lots of cool souvenirs around the cabin from his travels and sports accomplishments. His place was very relaxing and was exactly what we were looking for with its lake front access and cosy interior. We travel for work and are constantly staying in nice hotels, and we had the most amazing sleeps in the memory foam bed with sheepskin duvet and agreed it was better than any hotel sleep we had recently. So peaceful! We canoed to a Mexican restaurant across the river for lunch which was a fun mini adventure and very delicious! When we checked out we got to meet Bodie, Kevins Golden Retriever that is in the listing photos. Was an awesome experience! We look forward to returning sometime back to Kevin’s Cabin!

We had such a wonderful stay at Lauren’s gorgeous home. It was beautifully decorated and a great base for our travels. We enjoyed evenings on the dock and mornings on the porch. It’s honestly one of the dreamiest houses we’ve ever stayed in.

Very nice place and owners are attentive and helpful ! Nice and quite but close to many fun places if you want to go out.

My wife and I just returned from our week at Villa Sorenti. We can say without reservation that this home and surroundings were as close to perfect as we could have hoped. As great as the pictures look, this villa with its breathtaking view of the crystal clear blue Caribbean were even more spectacular in person. Toni & Alex were very helpful, accommodating, and communicative, as was and property manager who lives close by. And the location... Rainbow Bay is the most beautiful part of the island, from what we saw and we did quite a bit of exploring and visited many beautiful spots. Rainbow Bay is also right in the middle of the island, allowing for excursions to the north or south without too much driving. This being our first visit to Eleuthera, we were flying somewhat blind, so we definitely feel like we lucked out in every respect.

This cottage is the cutest, coziest place to stay! Great location- you must visit the Freckled Hen Shop as well. The owners are so friendly and flexible. We were only able to stay one night but will definitely come back for a longer stay.

Great space and location - we had a great time relaxing on the screened-in porch and listening to all the birds. The interior is nicely decorated and arranged. We fit comfortably as a party of four. The kitchen works well for small in-between meals. The location is a nice mix with easy access to Sister Bay and Ellison Bay while still feeling remote and private! The host provided helpful recommendations for the area and was very responsive.

Laura & Pal are a very nice couple, and their place, a charming little house in the vineyards, gives a breath taking 180 degrees view on the Cinque Terre coast above Riomaggiore. Be just aware not to come with too heavy bags, if you come by car I would suggest you let them in the car and keep a small bag to climb there, because there are some steep stairs to climb. Highly recommended place for who wants to live an more authentic experience of the Cinque Terre, a bit away from the over touristy areas.

Had a great stay! Great host! Will stay again!

Great property in a beautiful location. It was clean, tidy and had everything we needed. Would recommend to anyone.
