About Big Cottages
Big Cottages was founded to help users find properties for group accommodation.
In 2018 we became part of the Snaptrip family when we were acquired by the Snaptrip Group with a goal to help our customers become more spontaneous and book a last minute group holiday. By combining thousands of professionally managed properties along with hundreds of independently owned large holiday homes and offering great last minute discounts across these properties, we are able to provide our users with a great choice, in turn fuelling enquiries and bookings for our partners.

Our mission is to make taking a staycation easy and affordable for everybody.
Our core values
We are value champions
We believe that there should be a property for everyone; regardless of their budget, timing or who’s going. We always strive to ensure our customers find the right holiday for them at the best possible price for every possible budget. We understand that while all of our customer’s needs are different, we know and appreciate the value in the experience they want to take and will champion on their behalf the best price and discount at all times.
We are trustworthy
We will only work with suppliers who can 100% guarantee the validity of their inventory and the security of our customers’ holidays. We will work tirelessly to ensure our website focuses on truth, as we know how difficult it can be to find the perfect place to stay. We are here for you if and when you need us.
We are pioneers
We focus on price, we focus on live availability, we focus on discounts and we look to the future not the past. We will always strive to make booking your holiday easy by solving complex problems in simple ways, never accepting the status quo.
We are inspirational
We share our zest for life and love of the UK in everything we do. People come to us not just for breaks but to broaden their horizons. We build the tools that inspire our customers to find the perfect place to stay, whether they want to sit by the fire or climb a mountain. We make it easy to find good times. We’ll take a customer’s idea, no matter how vague, and turn it into their perfect trip.
