Holiday cottage extras in Wales
The headline cottage price is not the stay. Linen, cleaning, parking, firewood and a hot tub are extra unless the listing includes them. ‘Sleeps 4’ means the beds the listing actually names.

A cottage “from £X a night” is often a headline, not the invoice. Linen, cleaning, parking, a hot tub and a pet fee sit on top unless the listing says they are included.
Ask before the deposit
- Bed linen and towels
- End-of-stay cleaning
- Parking (a coastal town space is not a field)
- Heating / firewood / hot tub hours
- What “sleeps 4” means — beds vs sofa beds
- Changeover day (often Saturday on the coast)
We do not invent a national extras tariff. Read that booking’s conditions.
Town chapters such as cottages in Tenby and cottages in Llandudno are the local door, not a second booking engine.
Common questions
- Is linen included in a Welsh holiday cottage?
- Only if the listing says so. Cleaning, parking, firewood and a hot tub are the usual extras. Ask before you pay a deposit.
- What does ‘sleeps 4’ mean?
- Count beds, not sofa beds, unless the listing is explicit. Changeover is often Saturday on the coast.
