Was thinking of taking Nick away for a few days as a wedding pressie, maybe a surprise, over Xmas - think the entire universe will be booked up by now???

UK or abroad, for a few day's break anyone???

Anyone know the best websites to use?

Never booked on line although I have surfed and found not a lot!

What about hiring a little cottage? personally, we are big fans of North Norfolk and North Devon but Lake District is lovely too if you don't mind the long drive.

I can recommend www.english-country-cottages.co.uk we have been away with them a few times and you can book online.

Good luck, let us know if you find somewhere.
