Large Group Accommodation UK

Large group accommodation typically refers to whole-house rentals that comfortably sleep 10 or more guests under one roof. Our collection includes properties from 8 to over 40 guests across England, Scotland, and Wales. These properties feature multiple bedrooms (usually 5-15), several bathrooms including en-suites, spacious communal living and dining areas designed for group gatherings, and often extensive private grounds with gardens, patios, and ample parking. Unlike booking multiple hotel rooms, large group houses keep everyone together with shared kitchens, living spaces, and premium amenities like hot tubs, games rooms, and cinema rooms.

We specialise in group accommodation across the UK for 8 to 40+ guests. For small-medium groups of 8-15, we offer luxury cottages, barn conversions, and townhouses in destinations like the Cotswolds, Bath, and Devon. For larger groups of 16-25, our country houses and manor properties in the Lake District, Yorkshire, and Cornwall provide ample space with multiple reception rooms and entertaining areas. For very large gatherings of 30-40+ guests — ideal for family reunions, corporate retreats, or milestone celebrations — we have estate properties and purpose-built group lodges with extensive grounds and multiple living areas.

Yes — midweek stays are available at most of our large group properties and offer excellent value. Midweek rates are typically 15-25% lower than weekend pricing, making them ideal for corporate team-building events, training retreats, multi-generational family holidays, and groups with flexible schedules. A midweek stay in a luxury Lake District lodge or Cotswolds manor that costs £3,000 for a weekend might be just £2,200-£2,500 Monday to Thursday. Midweek guests also benefit from quieter local attractions, easier restaurant reservations, and more relaxed surroundings.

Many larger properties are event-friendly and regularly host milestone birthday celebrations, anniversary parties, engagement gatherings, and small intimate weddings. Properties with large gardens, marquee-suitable grounds, and spacious reception rooms are popular for events. Some hold wedding licences for civil ceremonies. Each property has its own guidelines around events, music, and external catering — contact the owner directly to discuss your specific event requirements.

Midweek stays (Monday to Thursday) are typically 15-25% less expensive than weekend bookings at the same property. When split between a large group, this saving is significant — for example, a property costing £3,000 for a weekend might be £2,200-£2,500 midweek, saving each guest £30-50 in a group of 20. We also see better availability midweek, particularly during peak summer months and school holidays when weekends book up months in advance. Many of our Cotswolds, Lake District, and Cornwall properties offer special midweek group rates — contact the property owner directly for a side-by-side quote.

Our large group properties come fully equipped for self-catering stays. Standard inclusions are spacious communal living and dining areas seating 10-30+ guests, fully fitted kitchens (often with double ovens, commercial-grade dishwashers, and large-capacity fridge-freezers), multiple bathrooms, high-speed Wi-Fi, central heating, ample parking, and quality bed linen and towels. Premium amenities vary by property but frequently include private hot tubs, games rooms with pool tables and darts, cinema rooms with surround sound, BBQ areas with outdoor furniture, extensive gardens, tennis courts, and in some cases swimming pools or sauna facilities.
