Cornwall
A Rural Retreats self catering holiday is the ideal choice for anyone with small children. Most Rural Retreats properties meet the very different requirements of families holidaying with toddlers and young children. We indicate in our property descriptions on both the web site and brochure whether babies and young children are welcome, and, when cottages are not suitable for young children under normal parental supervision, eg properties with hazards such as steep stairs or ponds, we have advised of this in the property description too. A Rural Retreats self-catering holiday suits families because there is more space for children to run around and being ‘in the sticks’, there is no need to worry about the noise your children make. In fact they can make as much noise as they like!

You have no need to pile the car with all the extra essentials, as we cater for young children by providing facilities for toddlers including cots, stair gates and high chairs at many cottages. All linen is included (cot linen is sometimes the exception). When you arrive, we greet you with a specially selected complimentary hamper to provide for your immediate needs, a chilled bottle of wine for yourselves, juice and some light snack and breakfast provisions, so there is no need to dash out looking for a pint of milk as soon as you arrive!

But most importantly it is our enchanting locations which cater for your children the most, Children love water and many cottages have beaches within easy driving distance and over 20 properties have swimming pools. Being in rural locations, many have walks just outside the door (we have many dog-friendly properties) and are situated in areas which abound in wildlife. Activities suited to families with youngsters are well advertised in the welcome packs we supply at each cottage.

Furthermore children are not tied to the timetable of a hotel - you can stick pretty much to their normal routine in a Rural Retreats Cottage, our trademark being quality cottages supplying complete home from home comfort. For example, most of our properties are stocked with books, games, toys, dvds and videos and many have a children’s snug, den or a children’s tv room. Properties with safe, fully enclosed gardens are indicated in the property description. Bikes or cycle hire are often available and we can often provide other services to make your stay more liberating, such as babysitters or a dinner delivery service. Many properties have extra facilities such as a games room with table tennis, table football etc. Many have large grassed areas, for various fun activities such as ball sports or kite flying, and well equipped play areas with wendy houses, play areas and trampolines to keep your children safely amused around the cottage.

It is very important for us to find you a property that best meets your requirements so that you can enjoy a wonderful family holiday. Please contact us on 01386 701177 where a member of our experienced team will have first hand knowledge of our properties and will be happy to help with any information you need and can take your booking. Alternatively, please visit our website at www.ruralretreats.co.uk where you will be able to view details and availability of your chosen Rural Retreat. We hope you and your family find your ideal holiday retreat!
