Hello,
due to stay in a little lodge soon with 9 month old and 3 year old!
any must takes to add to my list?
beds made on arrival, but should we bring toddlers own duvet and pillow as he is used to it? We will bring a bed guard too!
thank you

A large box of toys. Train track, cars, books, skuttlebug etc.. When we fly abroad we devote one large suitcase to toys and it makes a big difference in preventing the holiday being the same slog but with fewer resources.

Toys/books, I’d take his bedding if you have space, and also the cot sheet from your baby’s cot to help them feel settled. Calpol etc! Is there child suitable plates, bowls etc provided?

Night light, white noise, blackout blind, baby monitor

It depends on the three year old and weather forecast. Lots of favourite snacks. Definitely take a bucket, spade, wellies and waterproof. if a beach nearby ours loved messing about digging in sand and water and collecting shells and pebbles and things. But maybe take a small amount of games, sticker books, reading book and a couple of favourite toys. Although many cottages have things like this.
