I guess the ultimate way to spend your holiday would be in a luxury holiday cottage.

The whole idea of going away is to relax and live in a way you normally cannot. Be it on a river, on a moor, tasting wine for a week, next to a warm pool, whatever your desire is the holiday is where we indulge in selfish extravagance.

The icing on the cake can often be staying in a luxury holiday cottage. A quality cottage will provide you with real comfort and decadence. Often found in accommodation of this ilk are luxury hot tubs and heated pools, with dressing rooms and covered BBQ areas. The quality of the equipment provided should be first class, washing machines and tumble dryers should be included, Broad band internet and a dishwasher should now be standard in any luxury holiday cottage.

The location of the cottage is also an important factor. Luxury cottages should have a bearing, boast a view, nestled in a valley – there should be something that gives you that wow factor and makes it stand out from the rest.

I always consider that if I want a luxury cottage I think would this be my ideal home if I could afford it? If the answer to this is yes then its probably right for your ideal holiday.

Dartmouth is home to the Royal Navy training college Britanna. Over looking the town from high up on the hillside.

The location has a strong connection with the sea created by being a deep water port.  The valley is a delight; tree lined to the waters edge. The shopping in the town is superb, with original craft and general stores mixed in with chandlers and eateries to suite all pockets.
