Lovely site, lovely set-up..

Those who read this blog normally will know I don’t normally recommend sites or review them in great detail. However, I have decided to buck the trend somewhat to talk about the fabulous Baby Friendly Boltholes site. You can access it here. Since becoming a father to my gorgeous son Oscar, I have spent hours scouring the internet trying to find decent, yet stylish accomodation for a family holiday. Most cottages in the UK look like a damp, unpleasent experience, yet say they “can cater” for children.

BFB as its called when you are in the know, really goes the distance in terms of offering everything a wanna-be yummy daddy and mummy want from a holiday. The site is really great to use, the set-up easy to understand and in most cases the accomodation is totally stunning. I won’t tell you where we are looking at booking but it is absolutely lovely compared to the dross I have seen other sites peddling out. Why should I get poorer, cheaper looking accomodation just because I am a Dad?

One of the things that stands out most for me is the desire to please members. In particular as I was enquiring about a property, they asked which other areas of the world they should be investigating for BFBs. New York and Florida seem the popular choice, but I opted for San Fran – the 2nd best city in the world after the big smoke of London.

Anyway, check BFB out – but only if you are a wanna-be stylish parent like me.
