A large, enclosed garden is the most desirable feature for families looking to book self-catering holidays, a 30 year historic overview from Brecon Beacons Holiday Cottages has revealed. ‘Large gardens’ and ‘enclosed gardens’ were the two most popular requests, followed by a close proximity to activities and cafes/pubs.
The information is based on a four-year analysis of booking requests by Brecon Beacons Holiday Cottages, the Brecon-based holiday cottage agency with over 30 years experience and around 400 properties located throughout the Brecon Beacons National Park.
Other entries in the list of top ten self-catering requests included access to a games room, whether the property accepted pets and if cots/high chairs were provided. The full list is as follows:
1. Large garden
2. Enclosed garden
3. Walk to pub/café
4. Nearby activities
5. Games room
6. Nearby walks
7. Pets accepted
8. Family-friendly events in area
9. Cot & high chair provided
10. Spaciousness of property
With summer just around the corner, there are still a variety of family-friendly self catering accommodation available via Brecon Beacons Holiday Cottages.
