South West Summer Holidays

Spend your summer in the sunny South West. Known for having the best of the UK weather, the South West counties - Devon, Cornwall, Dorset and Somerset – are the best destinations for a UK summer holiday.

Each area has something unique to offer for your summer holiday. At Helpful Holidays, we aim to provide the best range of properties we can to help you find the ideal UK cottage your needs.

Things to do in Summer in the South West

If the South West has one thing, it’s beaches! Across ever county there are a myriad of spectacular shores to discover. Across North Devon you’ll find an array of amazing coastal spots. Explore the unique Tunnels Beaches in Ilfracombe, enjoy a sunny summer break in Woolacombe Bay, or visit the seaside town of Westward Ho!. A fun fact about the latter town; it’s one of only two places in the world to have an exclamation point after its name!

Browse Beach Cottages in Devon

In Cornwall, surfing is the activity of the day. Newquay’s Fistral Beach is the top location to go, with Bude, Widemouth Bay, and St Ives all offering great surf too.

Dorset has the epic Jurassic Coast, and even Somerset has amazing beach towns like Minehead, Weston-Super-Mare and Porlock Weir.
