Accommodation

How to Choose the Best Family-Friendly Accommodation

When planning a family holiday, selecting the right accommodation is crucial to ensure everyone enjoys their stay. Here’s how you can choose the best family-friendly accommodation to create unforgettable memories.

Consider Space and Layout
The first step is to ensure there’s enough room for everyone. Look for properties that offer multiple bedrooms and spacious common areas. For example, Tedsmore Holiday Cottages, like Martingale and Bridle, provide up to four bedrooms and spacious living areas, ideal for larger families.

Safe and Welcoming Environment
Safety is a top priority when travelling with children. Choose accommodation that offers a safe environment for your family to relax and play. Look for places located away from busy roads, offering a peaceful and secure setting. Expansive grounds are ideal, allowing children to explore safely while adults can enjoy the surrounding tranquillity.

Facilities to Keep Everyone Entertained
Whether it’s indoor or outdoor entertainment, a family-friendly accommodation should cater to everyone. Look for places with beautiful walking trails, open spaces for family activities, and proximity to local attractions to keep everyone entertained during your stay.

Self-Catering Options for Flexibility
Families often appreciate the flexibility of self-catering accommodations, where you can cook meals at your convenience. A well-equipped kitchen ensures you have everything needed to prepare your favourite meals, which can be particularly beneficial for families with young children or dietary needs.

Pet-Friendly Accommodation
Family holidays are more enjoyable when pets can come along. Choose accommodation that welcomes pets, allowing you to bring the entire family, including your four-legged friends, to make the holiday complete.

Reviews and Recommendations
Don’t forget to check reviews from other families who have stayed at the property. Honest feedback from past guests can provide valuable insights into the quality of the accommodation and help you make the right choice.

Location, Location, Location
Choose accommodation that’s well-positioned for exploring local attractions. Ideally, it should be close to points of interest but still offer a peaceful setting. Finding a place conveniently located near historical sites, outdoor activities, and cultural events will make day trips easier and more enjoyable.

Cost and Value for Money
Price is always an important factor. Look for accommodation that offers value for money, with amenities and services that meet your family's needs. Affordable yet comfortable self-catering options are ideal to ensure a memorable stay without overspending.

Special Family-Friendly Touches
Some properties go the extra mile to accommodate families. Ask about available extras such as cots, high chairs, or child-friendly entertainment options. Having these little details taken care of will make your stay much more comfortable and enjoyable.

Conclusion
Choosing the right family-friendly accommodation can make all the difference in your holiday experience. Look for spacious, safe, and well-equipped properties that offer a welcoming environment for all family members, including pets. Tedsmore Holiday Cottages offer the perfect blend of comfort, flexibility, and family-friendly amenities in the beautiful Shropshire countryside.


Self-Catering

Self-Catering vs. Hotels: Why Cottages Offer More Freedom

When it comes to planning your next getaway, the choice between self-catering cottages and traditional hotels can greatly shape your experience. At Tedsmore Holiday Cottages, we believe that the independence and comfort offered by self-catering accommodation often outweigh the benefits of staying in a hotel, especially for those looking to enjoy a more personal and flexible holiday.

One of the most significant advantages of self-catering cottages is the complete freedom they provide. Unlike hotels, where you’re tied to specific meal times and a set schedule, cottages allow you to plan your day exactly how you like. You can enjoy a lazy morning with a leisurely breakfast prepared in your own kitchen or pack a picnic for an afternoon exploring the stunning Shropshire countryside.​

The intimate, home-like atmosphere of a cottage adds to the appeal. Each of Tedsmore’s cottages is beautifully appointed with cosy interiors and modern conveniences, providing a warm and welcoming space to relax after a day out. Whether you're travelling as a family, a couple, or solo, having the extra cottage space, a living room, kitchen, and private outdoor areas offers a sense of privacy and relaxation that’s hard to find in a hotel.

Additionally, cottages are ideal for those who want to immerse themselves in nature without sacrificing comfort. You’ll have access to private gardens, scenic views, and walking trails, giving you the chance to truly unwind and disconnect from the hustle and bustle of daily life. For pet lovers, many cottages also allow you to bring your four-legged friend so they too, can enjoy the holiday​.

Ultimately, if you're seeking a break from the routine and prefer the flexibility to make your own plans, self-catering cottages like those at Tedsmore offer an unmatched level of freedom, privacy, and charm. It’s a home away from home, tailored to your needs and perfect for creating lasting memories.
