Why Holidaymakers Love Cottage Accommodation

Getting away from it all and having some fun on holiday is important and there’s no better place to do just that than in the Lake District.

More and more people are giving hotels a miss and booking cottage accommodation – hiring a home away from home where they can relax and enjoy the local amenities. It doesn’t only give you plenty of freedom to plan your holiday how you like, but many of the locations and views are absolutely stunning and the Coppermines has a great range of gorgeous cottages in and around Coniston.

Holiday Accommodation Lake District

These are some great reasons why Holidaymakers choose Lake District Cottages for their holiday accommodation.

Local Adventures

When you stay in a hotel, you usually have everything supplied for you from food and drink to TV and even play areas for the kids. That can mean you don’t actually get out and about as much as you should on your holiday. Especially if you have kids in tow, you will often settle for the local amenities rather than going further afield because it’s more convenient.

There are hundreds of amazing activities and adventures that you can take part in when you visit the Lake District. Making a cottage your base means you’re more likely to get to know the local culture, food and people and have a fulfilling experience that you will remember for many years to come.

Setting Your Own Pace

Hotels tend to have strict times for meals, and you have to share the tables all with lots of other people and all the noise that creates.

When you hire a cottage for a week, you get a home away from home with all the amenities that you would expect. You can cook what you like when you like, have a barbeque in the garden, put on DVDs or watch satellite TV, and even do your washing. You have much more space to play around with and don’t have maids coming in and out to clean your room.

In short, a holiday cottage gives you much greater flexibility and options to run things how you want them to be run.

Extra Amenities

A holiday cottage has lots of different amenities for you to take advantage of. Not only will you find a kitchen and dining room where you can cook some local fayre but many of the cottages have extra benefits such as a private swimming pool, hot tub, or barbeque area.

When you’re staying at a hotel, it can be quite difficult to find some privacy. There’s no such problem if you want to kick back and read a book in the morning sun while drinking a coffee, or you want to have some relaxing me-time in the hot tub.

The Cost of a Holiday Cottage

The good news is that the price of hiring a holiday cottage is comparable to most hotels in the area. Especially if you have a large group of friends, you can easily split the cost, saving you money to have fun around the Lake District.

What’s more, you’ll find these cottages in secluded locations as well as small villages where you not only have great views of the surrounding countryside but plenty of peace as well.
