The furnishings are set up for genuine day-to-day living rather than a stripped-back vacation setup, which matters when you are staying for 30 days or more and need the space to function as a proper home. Each listing on our long-term rentals page details exactly what is included at that property, and if you have specific requirements around setup or amenities, our team is available through the help support to confirm the details before you commit.

You can filter directly through our pet-friendly cottages to find properties that suit both you and your animal, with each listing clearly noting any size or breed considerations.
