Best Family Holiday Cottages in the UK
Renting a country cottage or any kind of self-catering property has always been the best choice for a family holidaying in the UK. And even in these days of more kid-friendly hotels and B&Bs, it still remains the most flexible option. There are literally thousands of self-catering properties around the country that are ideal for a family holiday, whether it's because they have a great location – by the sea, deep in the woods or close to popular attractions – or because they are well set up for children, with big gardens, games rooms, films and books or just a reliable wifi connection. In any case, living somewhere different is always fun; children love to colonise places and soon make them feel like home. We have loads of UK family cottages to share, from regular holiday cottages and beach huts to cabins and lodges. Which one will be perfect for your family?
