Find Cottages to Rent for Your Perfect UK Getaway

More and more people are choosing a holiday which includes activities, particularly where there are youngsters in the party. The freedom which staying in cottages to rent gives you is a definite bonus on these holidays. Many parts of Britain, particularly the wilder bits, now offer a wide range of activities for all ages. Having a base which you can return to as often as needed and where kit can be stored (and dried) is a real necessity. Cottages to rent give you this freedom.

Some country areas offer canoeing/kayaking, rock climbing, abseiling, pot holing, horse riding, archery, bush craft – the list is long . Having the freedom of using cottages to rent as a base, means that you can return from any of these activities when you like, for as long as you like.

Staying in cottages to rent can be beneficial where there is a wide age range within the family party. It is possible that some more mature members of the family would like an occasional break, whilst the younger ones keep going. What better than enjoying the calm of cottages to rent on a nearby farm then enjoying another activity tomorrow?

Perhaps your family is not quite that active, but still require things to do. A good example would be renting holiday cottages in Cornwall, Wadebridge and seeing what that area has to offer. Wadebridge is at the northern end of the Camel trail – a purpose built cycle route, using the redundant railway lines. Anyone can manage some of the trail, it is relatively easy; many do the whole distance – it is not steep, just long. There are bicycles for hire and organised parties if required.

Not far away from the cottages to rent at Wadebridge, is the fishing village of Padstow. Here the activities require more patience than brawn – fishing is the order of the day. You can buy your dinner ingredients from the fishermen who have brought in that day’s catch and take them back to your cottages to rent for the evening. Sea fishing is dependant on the tide, so when you bring your catch back for eating can be very variable. With cottages to rent, it does not matter; you just eat when you are ready.

Some cottages to rent come with attached entertainment and activities. Many holiday farms offer accommodation surrounded by animal attractions for children, play areas and walks for all. Here youngsters can often feed animals, see them in their natural environment or watch (and sometimes participate in) the normal workings of a farm. Whatever your level of activity, there are sure to be cottages to rent nearby to complete your freedom to enjoy yourself.
