The ability to wash during a holiday is important for many mums who try to keep the children spick and span. Holidays are a time when children spend a lot of time outdoors and depending on where you stay in Dorset and the type of holiday you book, the children could become dirtier than normal.
Part of the fun of holidays is being outdoors, climbing trees, jumping over streams, riding bicycles and rolling down grassy hills. The children’s clothes are going to get somewhat muddy. Many parents prefer not to take suitcases full of laundry home – they would rather deal with it on a daily basis and having a holiday home with a washing machine is high on the list of priorities.
A starter pack of detergents is usually provided but it’s always best to take your own, just in case.
There are so many fabulous places to take children in Dorset. Kids always love a beach and there are plenty to choose from along the Dorset coast. Lyme Regis is popular because of its sandy beach and also rock pools beside the harbour. The Heritage coast is famous for fossils; now that could keep the kids busy digging and unearthing for hours. And you need tot worry about the children getting their clothes muddied because that is easily solved when you return to your holiday cottage and use the washing machine.
