Reuniting with family and friends is one of the most important aspects of Christmas, but it can be difficult getting everyone together in the same place. However, holiday cottages can provide a comfortable base perfect for spending quality time with your loved ones, and Hideaways has a selection of cottages that are still available for the festive period.

By staying in a holiday cottage at Christmas, groups scattered across the country can find a meeting place that is in a suitable location, provide room to accommodate everyone and enjoy a change of scenery. Make the most of being in the countryside with cold crisp walks in the morning, before returning to an open fire, board games and a spot of Christmas TV.

For those looking to get away this Christmas Day, Thatch Cottage in Somerset sleeps up to six and can still be booked for the week beginning the 20th December for £819, which equates to just £137 per person. With charm and character throughout, this cosy 18th-century cottage has a woodburner, with the cost of renting the cottage inclusive of logs, and a nearby pub within 400 yards for those who may wish to treat themselves to a traditional Christmas dinner, without the washing up.
