Wherever you stay in Cumbria there's usually a good range of fun to be had outdoors - from the most energetic sports to the most relaxing pastimes. Banking on continual excellent weather, however, can be a little short-sighted in Cumbria. If the rainclouds arrive it may be a good idea to stay inside and get out a pack of cards or an old fashioned board game. With wi-fi more and more common (but don't expect urban speeds) you could even download a few great tv shows or games. Or you can just embrace the weather and get out there in a raincoat, splash about, and pretend that you really are still young.

All the agents we work with have good customer service teams, so please contact them if you have additional questions or problems. Nearly all country cottages have free parking near the property, but you may find the urban cottages to have more parking restrictions. Many owners, if they are local, will be pleased to give you tips on the best pubs and restaurants around, so make sure you ask and take advantage of the info! Countywide cottages in Cumbria are not just good value, but also offer the benefits of home comforts versus a hotel. Some people ask whether bed linens and towels are provide, and in our experience linen is yes, towels can be no - but you should check with the owner / agency.
The fact that guests are on holiday in Countywide in a rental home together, sometimes with three generations in larger rental holiday homes, brings a much different atmosphere to the cottage break or holiday. When you're so focused on the final destination, its easy to forget to pack some of the basics, so here are a few tips. First of all, make sure you remember their shampoo, since not all stores in Countywide will carry tear-free shampoo. Snacks for the car can make the trip to Countywide much more pleasant - bored kids with low blood sugar are not the perfect companions. Sometimes just taking a few soft toys from home can make bedtime feel more comfortable in a strange house, and they don't need to take much space in the boot.
