LOCAL HOLIDAY COTTAGE COMPANY IS THE BEST IN THE UK

A Lake District holiday cottage letting agency, Sally’s Cottages, has won gold in the Best UK Holiday Cottage Booking Company category in the prestigious 2018 British Travel Awards.

The announcement was recently made at a glamorous Gala Awards ceremony held in London and attended by more than 900 people in the travel industry.

Sally Fielding, owner of Sally’s Cottages, collected the accolade in London. “I’m absolutely thrilled to have been able to accept this award on behalf of the whole team. We have won silver for the past three years and to receive gold this year is just a dream come true. It’s a real testament to everyone who works so hard to make Sally’s Cottages the best in the business, and to all the people who voted for us, who believe we can do it.”

The company was set up by Sally in 2003 with just one holiday cottage and today employs 21 people in its office. It is now the largest independent self-catering cottage company in the Lake District with over 480 holiday cottages and it receives regular recognition for excellence both locally and nationally. “Cumbria can sometimes get forgotten on the national business stage,” adds Sally, “but we want to play a part in making the rest of the UK take notice of what our county has to offer.”

British Travel Awards’ chief executive Lorraine Barnes Burton said: “Sally’s Cottages is to be congratulated on winning Best UK Holiday Cottage Booking Company. The British Travel Awards are the only travel industry accolade voted for exclusively by the consumer and the Awards serve to recognise all that is great about travel, as experienced by the travelling public. To win a British Travel Award is a true achievement.”

The British Travel Awards is a proudly independent organisation, verified by leading global business practitioners Deloitte.
