Check out: Great value properties in Devon to rent for the family at Easter

A lot of holiday cottages in the UK are "under occupied" this year, meaning good deals are still available

Easter is only three weeks away. Gulp. The more organised among you will have planned what to do with your restless brood months ago. However, some of you probably haven't. Panic not. A lot of holiday cottages in the UK are "under occupied" this year, meaning good deals are still available. Down in Devon, we've noticed a couple of great value properties from Coast & Country. Almost on the waterfront in Salcombe, 1 Combehaven is available throughout Easter (weeks starting 4 and 11 April), and in South Hams, refurbished Hooppells Barn is available for one week starting 3 April.

• Both properties sleep eight for £850pw, 01548 843773, coastandcountry.co.uk.
