Cottage vacation rentals in Channel Islands

We had such an amazing time staying at Liberty Barn. Tracey was extremely helpful and flexible when we were held up in traffic. The place was a rural paradise, and we so enjoyed the spa and sauna.

We’ve just spent a wonderful four nights here, absolutely loved it. Helen is a wonderful host, property was exactly as described, warm and cosy, lovely homely feel. Big bonus with this property is the free onsite parking, a rarity in Polperro. The walk back up from the village is a bit slower, but is how it’s described in the listing. We preferred to go to & fro the village via Brackenside lane (follow google maps) which continues onto a pretty woodland path and down a long flight of steps coming out near the ice cream shop. The ice cream shop is amazing! Beautiful lunch at The Three Pilchards and the views from the roof terrace eating area are spectacular. Would definitely recommend this property to others.

This is a lovely Airbnb. We stayed for five days, and had torrential rain for the first few — which we spent snuggled up on the sofas, enjoying the fire and underfloor heating, and making the most of the fully equipped kitchen with incredibly fresh produce from the local farm shops. On the sunny, clearer days, we caught a couple of gorgeous sunsets from the hot tub and even had a go at a bit of stargazing with the telescope provided. The barn is beautifully converted; the way it lets the light in is just something else! Our dog also loved having a garden to run around in and enjoyed meeting the neighbouring cows.

Great love and care has been taken with this converted cottage. Everything is 5* accommodation is immaculate, but still homely and the attention to detail amazing, from slippers and robes for the hot tub and milk, butter, tea bags and a delicious lemon cake !! Thank you Alan and Davina, we hope to be back Xx

Linda and David were the perfect hosts. We felt instantly at home upon arrival from the friendly welcome through to the wonderful provisions waiting for us including cider and freshly home cooked bread, still warm! Attention to detail such as this is very special. Our hosts were always ready to advise and help on a personal level throughout our stay. We thoroughly enjoyed staying at Vine Cottage, very peaceful, beautiful setting and fabulous garden not to mention the hot tub! We highly recommend Blavet Forest Gites as one of the best we have experienced in the 40 years of gite holidays.

a pleasant and peaceful place, where you feel at home. Very well equipped and tastefully decorated cottage, extremely comfortable bedding. Evie and Tom are very welcoming hosts, attentive and very available when needed. a Gite that I highly recommend and we will be happy to return.

A beautifully kept cottage with plenty to do within walking distance, friendly locals, and an unlimited amount of nature to explore. Ceri and Daniel are great hosts, and clearly care about their guests! We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves, would highly recommend.

Escape bubble, peaceful, clean, cozy accommodation, tastefully decorated, private sauna and jacuzzi are real bonuses.

We had the most wonderful Christmas stay at this lovely cottage! From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the spacious layout and how well equipped everything was. The cottage had all the amenities we needed to make our holiday special, from a good-sized kitchen to comfortable living spaces. Located in a quiet area just a stone's throw from the beach and cliffs, it offered us the perfect blend of relaxation and stunning views. Our host was incredibly responsive and made us feel right at home, ensuring we had everything we needed for a memorable stay. Whether it was providing recommendations for local attractions or simply checking in to see if we needed anything, their hospitality was outstanding. This cottage is ideal for anyone looking to unwind and enjoy the festive season in a beautiful setting. We can’t recommend it enough and are already hoping to return soon!

Lovely place to stay, brilliant location and exactly as described. Charlotte was great at communicating before our stay and we found the place very easily!

We had a nice relaxing break. It was a lovely cottage with beautiful surroundings. Sally was available for us when we needed anything. The directions she gave made it very easy to find. Wouldn't hesitate to stay there again.

Julie's place was a fantastic place to stay during our time in Portland. The place was spotless, smelt nice and had all the amenities and items you might need for your stay. Locally, the walks are absolutely breathtaking! Some of the best views I have seen anywhere! There are a few food shops and takeaways locally, all fairly priced and good food. We will definitely return!

Spotlessly clean hideaway. So peaceful yet minutes walk from the centre of Dawlish. Completely safe walled garden for the dogs. Train station 5min away, great coastal scenery in all directions. Nice walk to Dawlish Warren and plenty of places to eat and drink. 3 generations and suited us all. Would highly recommend.

Firstly Kamila and Elena were fabulous hosts, super quick to respond, very helpful with local recommendations and really friendly. We stayed at Pump Cottage, very tranquil and perfect for two adults. It was just what was needed to wind down and relax. The location is remote but within a 15 minute drive you have local amenities. Highly recommended is the Rising Sun in Altarnun, a 10 minute drive away, the food was incredible. This was a great base to go exploring and we didn't want to leave, so much so, that we have already booked to come back next month!

The cottage was comfortable and nicely furnished. We loved the rural location which was also in reach of all the attractions the Island has to offer. The bathroom is within the bedroom which wouldn't suit everyone, but fine for us. We would recommend for a peaceful break.

We did struggle to find it but once we were there, it was easy. Parking is tricky, there are not always spaces for the car park you get a permit for and without the permit, parking costs can really stack up quickly. The house is in a great location, right by the town but far enough out just to miss the overall hustle and bustle.

Lovely place, very nice and responsive hosts, great stay overall, would recommend!

Communication with Mark was great. The house is really lovely, as described, and the oak extension is great. It is tastefully decorated and comfortable. We enjoyed our stay and our 3 year old grandchild slept well in the peace and quiet. Thank you Mark.... we definitely would like to return.

Perfect rental for calm and birds chirping. Proximity to Avranches and the coastline.

Absolutely loved our stay at Hope Cottage! The cottage itself is cozy, clean, and beautifully decorated, with every little detail taken care of. It really felt like a home away from home. The location is fantastic, nestled in the peaceful Normandy countryside yet close enough to visit local attractions easily. The host was incredibly sweet and went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. He even shared local tips that made our experience even more special. The freshness of the surrounding was so beautiful. We do recommend that you must be traveling by car as it is in a private area.

Beautiful cottage, beautiful garden with sea view. Everything was perfect . Deborah is a responsive and helpful host. Highly recommend

We had a truly wonderful stay at Cottage de la Braize with our two teenagers. Enora was a thoughtful and generous host—knowing we would arrive late, she arranged a beautiful basket of local produce and meals, including delicious wine and apple juice, so we had everything we needed for a relaxing dinner on arrival. The house itself is absolutely charming—spacious, beautifully maintained, and perfectly equipped with everything we could possibly need. Each of the three bedrooms was large and comfortable, and the kitchen had everything to make it feel like a home away from home. The setting was peaceful and idyllic, a perfect place to unwind and enjoy the French countryside. Our only regret is that we didn’t stay longer. Thank you, Enora and Ed for such a delightful stay—we hope to return one day!

We had a great time with the family in this cottage which is really pretty, pleasant and very well equipped . Kids loved the ping pong table , foosball And the pond for fishing is really great! In short everything was perfect, host Joelle is very responsive and available

fantastic host and great place to stay with a group, the host and co host are always on hand to help. I would recommend for anyone and definitely stay again.
