Midweek Holiday Breaks
Have you ever noticed that many cottages and holiday lets operate on a Saturday to Saturday basis?
That's all well and good if you work in an office or any other job which is on a Monday to Friday basis. But if you work odd hours, odd days and strange shifts you might actually benefit more from a midweek break.
Unfortunately that can cause problems. Not all locations will offer anything other than dates which go from one Saturday to the next, which can cut down on your options.
Luckily the Cotswolds have many different cottages to offer for short breaks in the mid week, no matter what day you want to start your short break or holiday on. Take the wonderful Blacksmith's Cottage for instance. Located in Winchcombe, this cottage provides a lovely base from which to explore all the best parts of the Cotswolds. And since you can book your stay to begin on any day of the week, you can make the best of whatever time off work you have.
Of course if you would like a more unusual place to stay in for a few days, you might like the Old Ann Cam School. Yes we did say a school! This impressive building began life back in 1825, and is now enjoyed by many visitors to the area.
Meanwhile, the village of Bampton is out to the east of the Cotswolds, and it offers a stunning barn conversion to stay in if you're bringing a few people along with you. Extremely light, airy and very spacious, this retreat offers the ideal base for anyone who wants to explore the great outdoors.
This property is near the Buckland Road, which leads into the village of Bampton in one direction and Buckland Marsh in the other. This offers plenty of opportunities for walkers to stretch their legs and get up close to the best of nature that the Cotswolds is renowned for.
There are many reasons why opting for a midweek break is better for some people than others. But one of the best ones is that you don't have to limit yourself to a seven day holiday. If you want to book nine days away, that's fine. Perhaps you have an extra couple of days to take, or you want to take less than a fortnight? That's not a problem either, since you are in control and you can book one of the above properties for however many nights you wish.
You'll notice that some of our new properties operate on an 'any day' start basis, but be sure to check the listing for each one to see whether you can book it in this way.
You can see that all the most versatile properties in this sense are dotted about the Cotswolds, offering you the biggest selection of places to stay in. So no matter what you want to do when you arrive in the Cotswolds, you can be sure to fit it in just when it suits you best.
