At Big Cottages, good things come in bubbly packages. Home to the largest collection of group accommodation with hot tubs, cosy up in secluded cottages for four or party away in grand estates for 24.

From dog-friendly properties and amenities ranging from swimming pools to tennis courts, everyone will feel at home.
In Colchester, you won't struggle with things to do. If you can drag yourself out of the hot tub, visit Colchester Zoo and Beth Chatto Gardens. Explore the picturesque Dedham Vale, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, where you can enjoy scenic walks along the River Stour and admire the idyllic countryside that inspired renowned landscape painter John Constable.
