With over 600 properties in the West Country, family-run Helpful Holidays is continuing to add to its port folio of stunning and affordable holiday homes of all sizes, catering to large and small parties.

Their “tell it like it is” ethos means that Helpful Holidays have become one of the most trusted holiday home specialists, offering straightforward advice to people looking for self-catering holidays in the West Country. Scrupulous inspection processes make sure that each holiday home meets the standards that Helpful Holidays have maintained for thirty years, and their verification service means that nothing is overlooked when it comes to guaranteeing quality.

Lovely property and location. Always use Helpful Holidays when holidaying in the south west- always a pleasure.

Based in Chagford within the Dartmoor National Park, Helpful Holidays are the authority when it comes to selecting properties in the West Country. From a romantic retreat for two, to a large seaside home sleeping forty-eight, their telephone team are on hand to help holidaymakers select their perfect holiday home.

Despite their renown and success, Helpful Holidays maintain a ‘small firm’ ethos. Arranging over 16,000 holidays each year, the team know that the customer comes first. More than 60% of their bookings are from people who have booked with them before, and last year 99.25% of customers who answered questionnaires agreed that they would recommend Helpful Holidays to a friend.

Everything was as good as the pictures and descriptions on the website. It made for a perfect holiday.

The range of clear photographs and concise information on their website means that customers cannot be misled, and staff are always on hand to answer any questions they may have.
