Hello trusty forumites!


We would like to go for a short break in mid-October to the Cotswolds with our 2 yr old and newborn (will be 4 adults). We would love to find a good farm stay or other self-catering cottage that is child friendly. I am searching online for any that are still available in the area but would love any personal recommendations. Any suggestions of what to do also gratefully received (so far we plan to do Cotswolds Wildlife Park and maybe the National Arboretum).


As ever, thank you!

We stayed here last month.

We had a 2 year old and a 6 week old baby. They had so much baby equipment for both ie. moses basket, cot, toys, pram, high chair etc. Great location for days out and plenty to do on the farm as it had a great garden with a slide and other outdoor toys.


Rose and Farmer John own the cottage and were brilliant. It's a working farm so we had a tour of the farm and watched the cows being milked.


If you do contact them please say that I recommended them (Catherine Frusher)


Please PM me if you have any other questions


Thankyou


Catherine

Hello,

I know this isn't The Cotswolds but we had a brilliant week at Clydey Cottages in Pembrokeshire in the summer. They had thought of everything to make staying away from home with children enjoyable and easy!

      What helps you keep on top of your home?

      I bought a carpet swiper few years ago and it’s a game changer, mostly on the rug, couple of minutes in the morning during the week, cleans all the crumbs , pet hair etc.

      Plumber recommendation - A.F.E Plumbing Services

      By bobbychak · Posted

      I totally recommend Aria and AFE plumbing. He managed the renovation of a bathroom and refurbishment of a kitchen. He also helped with other smaller jobs around the flat. He was conscientious, communicated every step of the way, was helpful and did a great job. His team are nice people - which always makes a difference - and really  detailed in their work. They worked hard and the result was great. Aria is on 07739 734895.

      What helps you keep on top of your home?

      By Jess2003 · Posted

      I’ve been thinking about how different people manage their homes, especially when life is busy and there never seems to be enough time. Some do a little each day, some blitz at weekends, and some just tackle things when they can’t stand it anymore!   Here are 3 things I’ve noticed help a lot:   1. Start with one reset: Choose a single room (often kitchen or bathroom) and get it back to baseline.     2. Keep a simple kit: Just a handful of reliable products and cloths make it easier to get started.     3. Mini resets: 10–15 minutes daily stops everything from sliding back.       Personally, in my own home I do a quick evening routine — tidy up, hoover, flat mop (it’s quick and easy), a room spray, and fabric freshener. Then at the weekend I’ll do a deeper clean.   I’m curious — what works for you? Do you have any routines, hacks, or tricks that help you keep on top of your home?   I’m always looking for ways to grow and develop the services I run. My aim is to support busy, overwhelmed people who need a practical helping hand. My passion is creating supportive space resets that genuinely make homes feel lighter and calmer, and my goal is to keep building that here in our community.

      Bag of powdery substance found in children’s playground

      Hope the kids are all okay.  What did the bag look like?  what did you do with it after they’d all had a dab?
