    Family-friendly holiday homes cater to the needs of children on holiday. Everyone looks forward to a holiday and none more so than children. Teenage children are in a category of their own. Their first requirement of a holiday home is likely to be the PIN for Wi-Fi. They may be somewhat interested in the presence of a hot tub or sauna. Their bedroom will be important, especially the size of television and whether or not it has its own bathroom.

    Younger children are more likely to have somewhat different interests. They would definitely explore the garden, any swings, climbing frames, trampolines and other play equipment. Bunk beds in a bedroom may produce squeals of delight, closely followed by an argument between siblings over who is going to have the top bunk.

    Toddlers and babies, fortunately do not express any opinions about their holiday accommodation. Toddlers will go and explore and this is where it is essential to book a holiday home where a stair gate is provided should the holiday cottage be on two levels. Various accessories may be available to guests arriving with babies.

    Irrespective of the age range of the children, a garden is usually appreciated, especially one that has sun loungers, garden furniture and a few sun trap corners which allow the family to extend outdoors.  There are always those down times on holiday before going out for the day, or on your return, when the children go and do their own thing before the next event.

    Self-catering holidays with a family are much greater fun when everyone participates in cooking, cleaning up, or making a picnic to take out for lunch. It is good practice for the children to take responsibility for their own rooms and make their own beds. This is their parent’s holiday too.

    Most people, on holiday with children would prefer to rent a cottage that has a washing machine and dryer, plus a dishwasher. A freezer in addition to the usual refrigerator is also fairly essential. Family holidays demand ice cream, frozen pizzas and snacks than can be quickly popped into the oven.
    Northumberland is an excellent destination for an outdoor holiday with kids. The national park offers opportunities for mountain biking, rope adventures and trekking.

    Have a go at watersports on the coast or go cycling as a family. There are plenty of visitor attractions for days out and there are always a few places that people want to visit on their wish list.
