Just the very thought of going on holiday with children strikes dread into the heart of many a parent. It's not just the mountains of essential equipment that you need to pack but also the thought of having to entertain, placate and deal with the problems that arise when taking children on long journeys. Air travel frequently involves delays, queuing to get through customs, and fretful children.

Self-catering may be just the easier and less stressful option for you, especially whilst the children are young. Many country cottage owners provide high chairs, cots, stair gates and other equipment that you may require. Some can organise baby-sitting services so that you get a break. It is in their interest to ensure that you have a happy holiday and return the following year. Some cottages will have large enclosed gardens for the children to run around, swings, slides, swimming pools and so on.

Please use the Feature Pages Menu to find the ideal self-catering holiday accommodation to suit your family's needs.
