Beachfront vacation rentals in British Isles

Really nice little spot right by the beach! Great views and a really peaceful area. Lisa was so lovely and really responsive to any messages. Great communication and clear instructions with check in and check out. Really accommodating for our dog as well and made his first holiday perfect! We couldn't have asked for more 🥰

Brilliant location for a small family with to multiple beaches, pier and harbour front within 2 minutes walk and Woolacombe only 15 minutes by car. Nicely kept house with all of the amenities you'd require. Small parking space is 10 minute walk away, but this is advertised on the listing and unloading/loading outside the property was easy. Nicholas quickly responded by text to any questions. Would definitely re-visit.

We had a great week at Boscombe with our extended family group. The house was perfect and in such a great location with the beach only a few minutes walk away and shops/ restaurants 5-10 minutes in the other directions. The hot tub was a great touch for kids and adults alike.

We had a lovely stay at Carey's place. The flat was clean, comfortable and warm, with plenty of space. It was well-equipped with everything we needed and the little outside space was a fabulous sun trap. We found it to be fairly quiet, despite the close proximity to a takeaway. The flat is in a great location, within easy reach of the shore / beach walks and a short drive to the new forest. Carey was a great host, providing plenty of information ahead of the visit and also providing an extensive welcome folder. We would love to return when visiting friends in the area again in the future.

We had an absolutely wonderful week in this great property- the direct access to the beach is very special - and the house is a real home, furnished for comfortable living rather than rental. Lots of gorgeous walks near by - great golf course up the road, handy EV charging point 2 mins walk away, and Ashford designer shopping outlet 30 mins drive away.

Lovely place, everything you could wish for - spacious, clean, comfortable, great location and a wonderful beachside balcony.

The bakehouse was a great, we had wonderful time the house have everything that you need to feel comfortable and everything it’s 5 min less walking distance. Great place and host . Definitely recommendable

Amazing destination and the most perfect place to relax. Would definitely return!

If you're looking for the ultimate beach getaway, stop scrolling and book this place! This flat is literally steps from the sand – you fall asleep to the sound of waves and wake up to the most breathtaking sunrise right outside your window. It’s like living inside a postcard. The space itself was spotless, super comfy, and had everything we needed. You can tell Mel and David put a lot of thought into every detail. From the cozy touches inside to the local tips they shared, they made us feel like VIP guests. They were amazing hosts – super responsive, friendly, and just genuinely great people. It felt like we were staying with friends (but with total privacy and all the perks). We didn’t want to leave. Already planning our next trip back. If you get the chance to stay here – do it. You won’t regret it.

From the moment we arrived we knew we made the right choice, the accommodation was spotless & the views were amazing. If you want to get away and just switch off from the rat race we would highly recommend this little gem. Julie (the host) informed / updated us each step of the way, from how to get there, access to the key etc, any query was answered promptly, the information booklet was a great tool too, from operating the heating, TV etc. We will definitely return, thank you Julie

wonderful little stay amanda and david were great hosts. the area is perfect for a little trip which we had and lots to do for the adults and littles one nice little community feel with the shop and fish n chips being so local and welcoming the chalet itself is lovely and charming, the space is very snug and spread out enough so that you dont feel on top of each other the hosts have a nice information pack which we found very useful. hosts were perfect, let us know we could check in early, and communicated clearly on anything they needed before or after check out very friendly and responsive. will definitely be back David

We recently had the pleasure of staying at Nina’s house in Southbourne, and we can't recommend it enough! The house itself was fantastic—spacious, well-equipped, and perfect for our large group. The location was ideal, allowing us to easily explore the beautiful beaches. We thoroughly enjoyed using the facilities at the house, which added to our overall experience. Whether it was soaking in the hot tub or cooking in the well-stocked kitchen, everything was just right for our getaway. Nina, our host, was exceptional. She was responsive, polite, and incredibly helpful throughout our stay, ensuring we had everything we needed. Her attention to detail truly enhanced our experience. Overall, this was the perfect getaway, and we would definitely stay here again. Thank you, Nina, for being such a wonderful host!

Had an absolutely amazing stay weather was perfect location was lovely caravan as described. Caravan park was great pool and restaurant really good staff very helpful. Carol came over to introduce herself had a lovely chat and she gave us some really good places to go and see. Location was just perfect lovely sea views from the caravan and just a couple of minutes to walk to the beach. We will definitely be back ☺️

We had a 2 night stay the caravan was located with a sea view and i enjoyed listening to the sound of the waves crashing on the shore . The caravan was spotlessly clean with bedding and towels included. The kitchen had everything including a coffee machine . An enjoyable stay with plenty to amuse in Gt Yarmouth. Would recommend.

What a lovely place to stay, we’ve stayed at few beach front places on Airbnb and this one is certainly up there with our favourites. Such a lovely interior, nice touches everywhere. Really comfortable beds. Very peaceful and calm and stunning views from the garden to chill. The location to the beach within a few minutes walk is just superb. Andy and Rachel were just lovely throughout. We can’t wait to book again. And a welcome basket was a nice surprise.

fantastic stay at this beautiful place- so calm and peaceful, right on the beach side. lovely house for our family of 4, well equipped and beautifully clean. thanks so much!

Absolutely beautiful place in such a beautiful setting. My hubby and I felt very at home here. Our two little dogs loved it. The beach barn was spotless. The photos of the place are true to what it's like, however, if you're organised like us and think of bringing along coffee pods as you've seen photos of the machine so to not use all of the host's pods. Be aware it is not a Dolce Gusto machine, they now have a Tassimo. Don't fall into buying the wrong pods like we did by looking at the photos🤦‍♀️😂 A very short walk to The Captain's Wife pub and 1988 Indian, the food at both of these places is lovely and definitely worth trying! Lots of things to do and places to see whilst here. We drove to the Barrages walking over to Cardiff Bay, definitely worth a visit and also try Cosmeston Lakes Country Park, lovely walk around there and the medieval village. Barry Island beach is also perfect, it's lovely, clean, and perfect for dogs! We'd love to return the beach barn again in the future.

Amazing stay in Selsey! The beachside view was breathtaking, and the modern design made it so relaxing. As a group of couples, we settled in the moment we arrived. The peaceful surroundings and stylish, creative vibe made it feel just like home. The games on the shelves and well-equipped kitchen with quality cutlery were great essentials for our stay. Highly recommend to anyone!

We stayed for three nights over half term. The photos don’t quite do this place justice - I’m not exactly an architectural connoisseur but the place is stunningly designed with bifold doors straight onto the beach and a fire with ‘floating chimney’ visible from 360 degrees in the living area. Jo was an amazing host and showed us around personally, as well as supplying a very nice welcome pack and ample firewood! Whilst being right on the beach, this always felt like a very peaceful location. We enjoyed being able to do a bit of beach combing from the door as well as walk to the nearby nature reserve. Also had a very nice day out at West Wittering which is a relatively short drive. The weather was mixed during our stay (it was February!), but this the place is equally well equipped for a bracing walk followed by time by the log fire and more sunny days. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking for a short break by the sea.

What a fantastic place. You instantly felt like home from the moment you walked in, really clean and had everything you needed to cook meals from scratch in the kitchen. Great location if you don’t want to drive, everything is a couple minutes walk from the house - can easily walk to the beach or the shops without driving. Bonus for us, there was an EV charger that Sue remote controlled so we could just plug in and top the car up. Would love to stay again, not sure we’ll ever get weather this good again though.

We had a lovely family gathering here. Loved the close proximity of the beach and had some lovely walks from the door with the dogs. We ate in and the kitchen was very well equipped for larger numbers. The two lounges worked well for us we used one as a playroom. The rooms were spacious, larger than in the photos and lovely and warm. Jo was a very good host, with clear and warm communication.

We had a lovely stay here in Waterford! The hot tub was so relaxing after long days of hiking. Lots of room and a cozy living room to watch movies together.

I really like this place it’s lovely. Beautiful and peaceful place I will be back for sure , I really recommend to all of you to stay in the beautiful house …….

Absolutely fabulous little cottage about 20m from a calm, beautiful sea. Woke to the sounds of the waves lapping the shore, swam each morning despite it being November, walked West along the coast to a great pub and East on Saturday to Lulworth Cove taking in some breath taking views. The little area the caravan is in is secluded and private, there's a nice cafe about a 5 min walk away and the decking area is the highlight to have a coffee on as the sun rises or a glass of wine as it sets. Really beautiful, we will 100% be back.
