Short Breaks in the South East

Whether you decide on a night away or a longer stay, the South East of England is a place, which boasts some of the very best attractions throughout the UK. Whatever the weather, there's always something to do which will satisfy the whole family. For more inspiring days out, you could delve into the wonderfully colourful history of the area and visit impressive forts, historic houses, castles or the famous London Dungeons.

Why not hop on an open top bus and take in the sights of the Capital such as Buckingham Palace, Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament? With a variety of zoos, wildlife parks, museums and guided tours the whole family can be entertained. For more of a romantic getaway, you could live a life of luxury in a stunning city centre hotel, take a trip to the West End and enjoy a night at the theatre or wine and dine until your hearts content and show your loved one just how much they really do mean to you.

The South East is the perfect setting for any number of occasions, or simply a place where you can enjoy quality time with your nearest and dearest. Booking a short break with us will ensure you'll take advantage of all of this, at a great price too!

Fantastic short break

What a fantastic birthday gift, the murder mystery evening was fully engrossing, the actors were really professional, they played their parts very convincingly and fully included all the guests. All the staff at the hotel were really helpful, friendly and worked really hard until the early hours. The 3 course meal was absolutely delicious, everything really enjoyable. The breakfast was lovely, a real treat to end our overnight stay, we ended up trying everything and going back for more. The whole package was extremely good value for money. We will definitely be booking again

Haven of peace

From the friendly welcome to our departure we had a super time here. The wigwam pod was spotlessly clean, cozy and comfortable, surrounded by nature with a couple of friendly Robins visiting. The pod was equipped with a good size fridge with freezer compartment, a microwave and electric kettle and plugs for phone charging etc. counter top and shelving for meal preparation. Outside deck area, picnic bench with disposable bbq pad. Quiet, intimate, back to nature site with all modern amenities, shower/toilet blocks, dish washing and clothes washing facilities (machines and tumble driers) children's play area and woodland walks. Close to walking trails and places of interest. Haven of peace away from a busy world, we thoroughly recommend a visit.

Great hotel slight shame though

Beautiful stay but I asked for rose petals and swan towels on arrival as it was for a birthday and they said it was fine to do this. I then called that that to double check this will be there. Then walked in and nothing was set up and it was very disappointing. Later that evening, the birthday guest said they would have loved to walk into something like that which felt even more disappointing as it could have been exactly what they wanted. As for the actual stay and facilities though, they were all good
