Range cookers are intended in catering for a larger group on holiday, perhaps a big family or just a collection of friends staying together. Lots of walking clubs organise weekend breaks in Welsh national parks and this type of bigger cooker is perfect for them when they need to prepare large quantities of food.
Any holiday cottage that has a range cooker will also have suitable pots and pans to use on it. They are more commonly found in the bigger properties and Welsh farmhouses. The huge mansions to rent will have at least one range cooker if not more plus a variety of separate ovens, perhaps a steam oven and microwaves.
