I'm doing an uplift weekend in october with my brother in law and we will be bringing our families with us. That's four adults, two children, a baby and two dogs.

It is a tall order, but any recommendations? A self catering cottage would be ideal.

Thanks in advance.

I can't recommend this place highly enough. Its at Mabie forest down the road. Right on the trails too

We had a great time there last year. The kids would love it. Great big fire int he middle. Hot tub outside for when you get back.

It might be a bit pricey with just the two families. It will sleep a lot more. You could ask some more people along and split the costs

EDIT: THE smaller Bunkhouse looks ideal for a party your size

Forgot about that

Looks pretty cool, but maybe not with a teething baby! ๐Ÿ™‚

Aha.... a fair point.

To be honest, I think you'd be ok with the baby in one of the bunkhouse rooms. You've got all the facilities you need there.

Singletrack onto the trails straight from the door. Hmmmmmmmmmmm ๐Ÿ˜‰

There is a house advertised at the Shed @ Mabie. Give them a call for the number.

You are 40mins from Ae along the bypass

This place is great - has a sauna and pool table and not expensive! 'Bout half an hour's drive from Ae.
