Multi-Generational Holidays

Multi-Generational Holiday Houses Across the UK

The multi-generational holiday — three or even four generations sharing one house for a weekend, a week, or over a bank holiday — has become one of the most popular uses of our larger group properties. The single-house model works brilliantly for these occasions because it creates the conditions for family togetherness that hotels and separate accommodation can never achieve: grandparents at breakfast with grandchildren, shared lunches that everyone helps prepare, and the spontaneous moments of connection between generations that define family life at its best.

For families of 15 to 25 guests spanning three or more generations, our country houses, family holiday houses and large holiday homes with accessible ground-floor bedrooms and enclosed gardens work best. For larger extended family gatherings of 30 or 40 guests, our estate properties with multiple wings and outbuildings provide the space for every generation to have their own space while coming together for shared meals and activities.

Best Locations for Multi-Generational Holidays

The Lake District tops many multi-generational lists — excellent walking for all ages, lake attractions for children, and accessible towns for grandparents. Cotswolds properties suit families wanting a combination of countryside walks and beautiful market town visits. Cornwall is perennially popular for beach-based multi-generational family holidays. Yorkshire provides outstanding value alongside exceptional family-friendly scenery.
