Take a Multi-Generational Holiday in our Waterside Cottage

Taking a canal boat holiday in the UK is booming right now, but what if you want to take a multi-generational family holiday where some family members want to keep their feet firmly on dry land? Simple. Book our Waterside Cottage that sleeps up to eleven guests in six bedrooms!

Families can look forward to escaping the hustle and bustle of everyday life and it can be hard to decide on a holiday that will appeal to all ages when you want to take your kids and grandparents and even aunts, uncles or cousins away for a family break.

If you have a passion for the water, then there is nothing better than exploring the beauty and nature along the fantastic inland waterways on a canal boat holiday. However, if you have elderly or very young family members that prefer to stay ashore, then you can strike a great compromise by booking a Waterside Cottage holiday.

Get the best of both worlds

Getting the whole family on board for a boating trip may not be possible. However, you can keep everyone happy, warm and well-fed with a holiday in a comfortable cottage by the water's edge.

There could be no better place to keep everyone entertained from babies and toddlers to teenagers and the older generation, than in Waterside Cottage. 

Eating in or out

You can enjoy having family meals together in the cottage or you can take the family out  discover a cosy pub or waterside restaurant. Or you can take a short walk along the canal-side and explore the local cafes and eating places in Leighton Buzzard. 

There is a lovely garden area outside the cottage where you can enjoy a bit of al-fresco dining while sitting and watching the boats coming and going from the Wyvern Boat Yard. 

There is plenty of parking for your cars in the boatyard next to the cottage to make it easy to take a drive to go shopping, grab a bite to eat or take a day trip to one of the local tourist spots or historical sites of interest that are nearby Many offering coffee and cake or light snacks to enjoy.

A positive experience for all generations

Booking a short stay or longer break in our Waterside Cottage is a great way to ensure that everyone in your family party has a positive experience and gets to spend some quality time together.  We get a lot of repeat bookings from many families who want to keep coming back.

Unlike taking a more structured family holiday where mealtimes are dictated and offer little in the way of flexibility and don't really cater for all generations, booking with us for a self-catering break in Waterside Cottage satisfies everyone.

If you fancy a day of staying indoors with a good book, you don't have to leave the cottage if you don't want to. Waterside Cottage comes with a fully equipped kitchen to enable you to cook everything from a cosy meal for two to a large family meal for everyone in your party to enjoy.
