I booked a cottage in Grasmere for a long weekend with my sister. The booking process was clear and the confirmation arrived promptly. The property was immaculate and the surroundings are quite lovely, we were very content indeed. I'd happily return.

Read moreCottages are the thing to book with them, the properties are looked after properly and the booking calendar shows exactly what's free. We've stayed in four of their places now and every one had the basics done right, clean beds, a working kitchen and a clear check-in note waiting. The owners answered my pre-stay questions within a day.

Needed somewhere to crash for a friend's wedding in Yorkshire and this was the first thing that came up. Booking was fine but the payment page was a bit fiddly on my phone and I had to try twice. Cottage was lovely though, cosy and right by the moors.
The grounds around the Herefordshire property were the thing I remember most, the walled garden is very fine indeed. The booking was handled without fuss, though the reply to my query about the lift took a couple of days. The cottage was comfortable and well kept. A pleasant break all round.
Compared to a usual holiday let site this was a bit dearer, but the cottage in Dorset was spotless and the owner sorted a late key handover without fuss. Took a few days to get a reply to my first question though. Would still book again.

National Trust Holidays is the holiday arm of the National Trust, the charity that cares for historic houses, gardens, coastline and countryside across England, Wales and Northern Ireland. It offers self-catering cottages, farmhouses, lighthouses, castle stays and other properties in places owned or cared for by the Trust, many of them in rural and coastal settings. Bookings are made through the National Trust Holidays website, and each property is presented with details of its location, facilities and the historic or natural setting around it.
The holidays are aimed at visitors who want to stay close to the places the Trust protects, including families, couples and walkers, and guests can combine a stay with visits to nearby National Trust sites. Income from bookings supports the conservation work of the charity, which is a central part of how the business is described on its website.
