Family Self Catering Cottages

Going on a self-catering holiday with your family and staying in a charming little cottage is a great way to spend some quality time with your loved ones and to experience a beautiful part of the UK. If you have children then booking a lodge with a pets corner is something that will be very special for them, especially if you have pets at home that you had to leave behind on your break! The kids will simply love to play with and stroke the rabbits and guinea pigs that reside on the grounds of the cottage and it is a wonderful way to give them something different when on a self-catering break.

Larger animals often reside within the grounds too, such as lambs and cows, for children to see and interact with. They may even get a chance at feeding them and this will be a brilliant activity that they will adore and will want to do time and time again. There are holiday cottages on a farm where children can feed the chickens. If your family has come from a busy city then the kids may not be used to this kind of countryside environment and may not have any experience of seeing these types of animals before and so this will definitely be a holiday that they will remember forever. It is also a great education for them as they will learn to care for the animals by feeding and petting them, and so renting a holiday cottage with a pets corner is a wonderful idea for so many reasons.

Wherever you rent your cottage it is bound to be in an area of beauty, be it by the sea or nestled within enchanting woodlands. For those days when you just wish to stay within the cottage grounds, however, a pets corner within the vicinity is perfect to keep young children entertained as they will love the sense of responsibility and caring for the rabbits and other creatures. If you already have pets at home, it is a great way to make sure they don’t miss them too much and if you don’t, then it is a fantastic introduction to the world of pet-keeping for if you are unsure of getting one for your children just yet.

Self-catering breaks are perfect for kicking back and unwinding in a second home, and being able to see a different part of the UK. Renting one with a pets corner is an added bonus that children will simply love and is a great idea if you want to try something a little different on your next break.
