UK STAY: Playing at Happy Families

When you throw kids into the mix, the right location can make the difference between a good family holiday and a great one. Which is why we’re delighted to discover that Luxury Cotswold Rentals have announced a new partnership with the Toy Box Club. Whether you’re booking a cosy cottage or a grand stately home this half term, you can now have a bespoke box crammed full of age-appropriate toys delivered to the door. True treasure troves, the Toy Box Club’s delightful boxes are filled with tasteful wooden toys, puzzles, family games and fun books. Catering to children up to 12 years old, everything is selected depending on each child’s age and interests, all arriving fully assembled, batteries included where appropriate. Arranged by Luxury Cotswold Rentals’ helpful concierge, the bespoke box is delivered on the day of arrival and collected on check out.

Co-founder of Toy Box Club Jess Green comments, “A box full of new and exciting toys to play with – such a treat for any child and a great start to a holiday… and we will always provide enough games and toys to keep children intrigued for the whole week.” Better yet, Luxury Cotswold Rentals guests who go on to sign up to the Toy Box Club’s regular monthly subscription service will receive their first month free, plus free delivery. That’s what you call child’s play.
