Another request for holiday help - self catering...anywhere

Trawled this forum until eyes going wonky but still not sorted so help please!

2 pre school families wanting a holiday in April so need good indoor facilities.
Cornwall & the fancy child orientated complexes of cottages too far and a bit too expensive...but am not quite ready for a holiday park either.

Could be a stand alone cottage but with access to leisure club & ideally somewhere we can get most places without all piling into the car. Happy to stay in a town (looked at Swanage - looks lovely).

Location not really that important.

Is that really too difficult or am I just being picky!!

Exactly what we are looking for.
Think I had seen it and discounted it as no 4 bedroomed accomod but have emailed them and asked - they may have something or 2 interconnecting apartments.
Thanks

It's a great site, make sure to take ride-ons for the littlies if you go as there is plenty of open space and level paths. Also, 2 really welcoming pubs within toddling distance.
There are forest paths to walk/cycle straight from the site, and some good trips within 20-30 mins by car, including a great craft centre where you can make your own pottery.

We usually stay in a 2 bed lodge(5 of us), and book lodges that are next to each other as we go in a large family group.

Hope it works out for you

Unfortunately Justgettingbymum Whitemead only does lodges for 6 - and nothing connecting - think might save it for a family hol by ourselves as it looks so lovely.

Try looking on justlodgeholidays.com

They have hundreds of lodges all over the UK and they also have a special button to click for larger group lodges.
