Holiday Cottage Help.

[Kayzr]

How do you choose your holiday cottage?

We have a shortlist of about 10 but we just can't seem to pick one.

We are swinging towards the ones that provide a cot and highchair so we don't have to bring them with us.

What do you look for that helps you to choose?

Thanks

Location, activities and dishwasher!

arf and tumbledryer too

[rolls eyes at British Summer]

always go with the same company rural retreats as their places are always fab

location , comfort level, on site amentities, proximity to attractions

a sofa each for DH & I to idle around on
parking
dishwasher
CLEANEST looking kitchen & bathroom

oh god yrs, dh has managed to book one without a dishwasher this year

I usually look at decor, number of rooms and loos, lol

dh looks at price and location

Ihave booked a cottage for its literary connections

But it still has a dishwasher.

Dishwasher, washing machine, tumble drier, microwave, bedlinen and towels provided, location, enclosed garden, more than 1 loo, decent shower, price. When the dses were little cot and highchair. Always use English Country Cottages. Have never had a bad one.

Cot, Highchair (If your cottage owner doesn't provide a decent cot/highchair they're probably not aware of the basic needs of parents), dishwasher,w/m & dryer, enclosed garden, bath & shower, blackout curtains or blinds, TV & DVD for rainy days, games & toys, babysitting and lots and lots of space indoors for letting off steam, hide & seek and getting a bit of privacy (dc's and adults!!)

enclosed garden, no water (ponds etc), Sat changeover, no coin meters are absolutes
like dishwasher w mach etc etc but could do without

would want cot/highchair there if dcs needed them
prev have gone to family friendly places first time this year where it isn't specifically and I allready don't want to go (just discovered it has a meter)
