Family stays
A cottage that actually works for a family holiday
A lot of "family-friendly" Cotswold cottages are essentially adult cottages with a high chair stuffed in the cupboard. Mae Cottage is set up for families properly: a kitchen that can cope with three meals a day for everyone, a sitting room kids are allowed in, two bathrooms so the morning works, a garden for running off the breakfast energy, and a market town outside the front door for ice cream and a slow afternoon.
