Family Holidays
Large family holiday houses are group properties specifically well-suited to extended family gatherings and multi-generational holidays — combining the space for large family groups with the amenities that work for everyone from young children to grandparents, on an exclusive-use basis. Each listing sets out its own sleeping capacity and bed configuration.
This page focuses on large houses suitable for family holidays — school-break stays, summer weeks away and family-friendly layouts. If you are planning a wider all-ages reunion with grandparents, children and multiple households, compare our multi-generational holidays page as well.
Multi-Generational Family Holiday Homes
The best family holiday houses combine generous outdoor space — large gardens, paddocks, or coastal grounds — with well-equipped indoor entertainment including games rooms with table tennis and pool tables, and cinema rooms for family film evenings. Ground floor bedrooms and wet rooms cater for older family members or those with accessibility requirements.
Family holidays work best when catering logistics are solved. A large kitchen where multiple people can cook together, a dining table that seats everyone, and a well-stocked local area for grocery shopping are all essential. Many of our family houses are close to excellent local food producers, farm shops, and delivery services — and private chef options are available to take the pressure off for key meals.
What to Expect
- Spacious gardens and safe outdoor play areas
- Ground floor bedrooms for accessibility
- Games rooms and cinema rooms for all ages
- Large kitchens and dining tables for everyone
- Dog-friendly options available across the UK
Family Friendly
Safe outdoor spaces, games rooms and accommodation for all generations.
All Ages Welcome
Properties designed to work for children, teens, adults and grandparents.
Large Groups
Family houses across the full range of extended family group sizes.
Planning a Multi-Generational Family Holiday
Multi-generational holidays work best when the property provides enough space that different generations can each find their version of the ideal holiday day. Young children need outdoor space and adults who can supervise them within view. Teenagers need their own space and entertainment. Adults need peace and good food. Grandparents need comfort, accessibility, and the ability to be at the heart of the family gathering without being overwhelmed by it. A good family house provides all of this simultaneously.
Best UK Regions for Family Holidays
Cornwall leads the way for family coastal holidays — beach access, cream teas, and a huge variety of family activities. The Cotswolds suits families who want countryside walking, market towns, and a quintessentially English summer holiday. The Lake District is perfect for active families who want access to water sports, walking and cycling alongside a comfortable base.
Family Reunions and Christmas Gatherings
Large family houses are the ideal setting for annual family reunions and Christmas gatherings. A property that accommodates the whole family creates the conditions for the kind of multi-day family event that becomes a tradition. A large kitchen for Christmas cooking, a dining room for the main meal, a games room for post-dinner entertainment, and enough bedrooms that no one has to sleep on a sofa — everything Christmas should be.
