Nadine and her daughter provide a fast and friendly service to customers looking to find a cottage in the Yorkshire Dales. They have over 40 on their books and know them all intimately, so if you have any special requirements don't be afraid to ask. They've been established for over 15 years now, so their experience in the Yorkshire Dales is second to none.

Ken and Sue only have ten cottages, some of which they own and some they let for property owners. The cottages vary massively, but you can be sure that they've all been vetted closely to ensure that quality in king. Romance, the outdoors and relaxing are all catered for here and their insider knowledge can really help.

Marion and Clare run a very friendly self-catering agency covering the East of England, mainly village, coastal or rural based cottages and apartments. As with all the agencies in this section, they insist that all their cottages have a national inspection by VisitBritain.
