FAQ

Autumn Breaks — FAQ

The best autumn breaks span every corner of Britain — from the Scottish Highlands to the Cornish coast. Our collection features properties selected specifically for how they shine during this time of year, whether that's a cosy fireside retreat or a property with gardens at their seasonal peak.

A autumn breaks offers a chance to experience the UK at a particular moment in the year, with properties that make the most of the season. Expect seasonal menus, appropriate activities, and an atmosphere that embraces rather than fights the time of year.

For peak seasonal periods and school holidays, book 2-3 months ahead. For midweek breaks and shoulder seasons, 2-4 weeks is usually sufficient. Last-minute deals can appear, but the best properties and rooms go early — especially for Christmas, New Year, and summer weekends.
