Make the most of those long summer evenings and glorious sunny days with a stay in a luxury cottage this August bank holiday weekend. England and Wales are bursting with beautiful locations. So, whether you love sun-drenched beaches or colourful countryside landscapes, kate & tom’s has it covered.

As summer draws to a close, there’s still time to make memories last with a magical late summer stay. The kids will love exploring new destinations with a host of activities like walking, mountain biking and paddleboarding to try out. August bank holiday getaways are also an ideal time to head to the seaside. Soak up the rays and splash in the waves on some of the best beaches in Europe. Fish and chips or ice cream is the cherry on the cake of your perfect stay.

Perhaps getting away from the hustle and bustle for a few days is your cup of tea. That’s where countryside retreats are the perfect August bank holiday staycation idea. Dine alfresco admiring captivating landscaped gardens. Or watch the kids playing in the pool while you stoke up the barbeque. Your cottage break really is a place to unwind before autumn comes.
