Four of the Best UK Holiday Homes for New Year"s Eve
November.
Christmas is almost upon us, and with it the usual glut of shopping and stress.
But for the forward-planners amongst us, there's another even more important date to bear in mind: New Year's Eve.
What to do? What to do? The bars and clubs are rammed - and ludicrously expensive! - then there's the question of getting a cab home...
It's frankly not a terribly attractive proposition.
Which is why, with every passing year, more and more people are looking to escape the cities and booking UK holiday homes for New Year's Eve.
Here's a selection of four of the very best UK holiday homes from which to see in 2011...
The Cornwall Holiday Cottage for New Year's Eve A holiday cottage in Cornwall is the perfect NYE destination for the jaded city dweller to escape the hustle and bustle for a couple of days.
And few places could be better than High Rosevine Farm Cottages...
A traditional Cornish farmer's cottage miles away from anywhere, and surrounded by fields and woodland, at first glance it's a pretty impressive setting.
Throw in the wild Cornish coastland that's only five minutes' away, however, and it quickly becomes upgraded to the downright sensational! The Lake District NYE Bolthole It almost goes without saying that the Lake District - like Cornwall - is one of the UK's most inviting retreats for holidaymakers looking for glorious landscapes and a bit of peace and quiet.
And if it's peace and quiet you're after then Fellside Lodge, a luxury self-catering lodge on Limefitt Park in Troutbeck, could hardly be more suitable.
The Highlands Holiday Home for Hogmanay Few towns in the UK have such a sense of stunning remoteness as Lochcarron, on the West Coast of Scotland.
For a 'Hogmanay' holiday home it's an ideal spot for anyone looking for some great walking and long nights in front of a roaring fire.
Up to the north of the border, they obviously go for New Year's Eve in an even bigger way than down in England - and Hogmanay is, in many ways, the highlight of the calendar in Scotland.
New Year's Day in the Highlands is simply magnificent.
Cold and crisp, it's also an even better time than usual to see the stunning landscapes in all their glorious stillness - as the rest of the world sleeps off a hangover! The Edinburgh Holiday Home for Hogmanay Ok, fine.
Edinburgh's a city.
But it's also a truly special time of year to be in a truly special city.
One of the best apartments for Hogmanay in Edinburgh is the Storytelling Apartment.
In the heart of the Old Town and voted as one of The Sunday Times Magazine's 'Great Value' holiday homes back in May 2010, it's a cracking place to see the New Year in from.
