Last second breaks in the UK

With thousands of properties, plus holiday durations from one night to twenty eight, there’s no better place to find your last second break in the UK.

If it’s a cosy escape for two you’re after, you’ll be spoilt for choice with romantic settings and amazing features. If you manage to assemble a large gathering you will find an equal array of amazing choice – from cottages in the same setting to large mansions and manor houses!

You can even heat up your quick getaway with hot tubs, steam rooms and saunas, private pools, open fires and more.

All that remains is finding a location. Here are five perfect places for a last second break in Britain.

The Peak District

Last second Peak District

One of Britain’s most beautiful and easily accessible National Parks, the peak District can be easily accessed from Cheshire, Yorkshire, Nottinghamshire and Staffordshire. It’s perfect for planning a last second break!

Explore the beautiful market towns and villages, take long walks over hills and valleys or take to the skies in a cable car to the Heights of Abraham. We have loads of quick getaway holiday accommodation in the Peak District, so you could be there this weekend!

The Cotswolds

Equally accessible, but with a more genteel feel, you can reach the picture-perfect hills and honey-coloured cottages of the Cotswolds in next to no time from the Midlands, Bristol, London and the Home Counties.

Perfect for a last-second break, our Cotswolds escapes offer traditional charm and modern comfort. You can bring your four-legged friend to a pet-friendly property, book a place with an indoor pool or a luxury property to maximise your relaxation!
