The forces community can save on Rural Retreats cottage holidays through the live deals gathered on this page, with more than 600 holiday homes to choose from across the UK.

Each deal shows its own terms before booking.

Booking a cottage with a Rural Retreats deal

Every offer here links through to Rural Retreats, where properties can be searched and shortlisted side by side.

  1. Open a deal from the offers on this page to reach the Rural Retreats site.
  2. Check the terms, as a deal may be limited to certain properties or dates.
  3. Pick a cottage and dates, then apply any code at checkout.

The booking team can also advise by phone, as staff have first-hand knowledge of the properties. If no live offers are showing, the email sign-up further down this page is the best way to hear about new ones.

Getting more from a country cottage break

Short stays suit a tight block of leave. Rural Retreats offers two and three-night breaks most of the year at most properties, and two nights is the minimum stay.

Many cottages have no fixed changeover day. That flexibility helps anyone fitting a trip around duty rosters or a partner’s return from deployment, subject to availability.

Comparing the total cost of a stay is simple here. Linen, towels, electricity, heating and fire logs are not charged as extras.

Families with very young children can leave some of the bulky kit at home. Travel cots and foldaway high chairs are free on request at many properties, and most stays start with a complimentary welcome hamper of essentials.

Longer trips bring a small bonus too. Stays of eight nights or more include a complimentary service clean with fresh linen and towels, arranged with the housekeeper.

How can forces families save at Rural Retreats?

Forces families can start with the live deals on this page, then compare short breaks against a full week. Items such as linen, heating and cots at many properties come at no extra charge.

Can dogs come on a Rural Retreats holiday?

Many properties accept up to two well-behaved dogs, and a charge applies. Cats and other animals are not allowed.

How long is the minimum stay at Rural Retreats?

The minimum stay is two nights. Short breaks of two or three nights are available most of the year at most properties.

Where are Rural Retreats cottages located?

Rural Retreats has more than 600 holiday homes in countryside settings across the UK. The company has been letting holiday properties since 1985.

More UK break ideas for the forces community

Rural Retreats sits alongside other UK options, including Parkdean Resorts holiday parks, Shorefield coastal breaks and Just Go coach holidays. Days out near a cottage can be planned with English Heritage membership.

The full range sits in the forces holiday deals hub, and the military discount guide covers savings across the UK.
