With the long May bank holiday weekend, half term for the kids and the sun starting to shine, there’s no better time for a relaxing UK staycation. Spring is in full force during May, so you’re guaranteed to get the best views of green landscapes and floral surroundings across England and Wales. And with holiday cottages in beauty hotspots across the UK, you can wake up to stunning views every day with kate & tom’s.

Treat the little ones to a getaway during the May half term or gather a group of close friends for a long weekend by the beach. Whether you’re enjoying fish and chips by a Sussex beach or enjoying the views from the top of Mount Snowdon, the crowds are likely to be less busy during May – and if you’re not a fan of the summer heat, the cooler spring breeze is perfect.
