We have had the pleasure of recently speaking to the fabulous shopping and retail site Intu to offer our top tips for travelling with the family and why having children should absolutely not prevent you from enjoying gorgeous holidays and fantastic accommodation: not a buffet or all-inclusive in site, unless that’s what you’re after.

If you think it’s all just about restless toddlers running through the airport and screaming newborns strapped into airplane seats for hours on end, you’re wrong (though, of course, how your little ones behave is beyond our control).

Kodomo.com founder Cass Chapman chats to Intu and gives her top tips on what to do when embracing family travel, why there is no need to skimp on luxury accommodation (that’s still absolutely within your reach) and why long-haul travel shouldn’t be avoided. Read the feature here now.
