Featured large group houses
A selection of current properties across the UK, with confirmed features and group capacity. Check individual listings for latest availability and pricing.
How to choose the right group holiday home
The right property depends on your group size, occasion and priorities. Here is what to think through before you enquire.
Start with confirmed headcount
Work out your firm guest numbers before searching. Properties with the right sleeping capacity are easier to price and more available for your dates. Use the group size pages — Sleeps 15, Sleeps 20, Sleeps 30 — to pre-filter results before looking at anything else.
Match destination to occasion
Location shapes the character of the stay. Derbyshire and the Peak District suit country retreats and celebration weekends. Yorkshire offers farmhouse character and good value. The Lake District suits active groups. The south coast is best for smaller groups wanting coastal access.
Match house style to group needs
A games room, cinema room and hot tub suit hen parties and birthday celebrations. Multiple reception rooms suit family reunions where different ages want different spaces. A large open-plan kitchen-diner is more important than a formal dining room for most group stays.
Book direct with the owner
Every listing on Group Escape Houses links to the owner's own website or booking calendar. You enquire directly, receive a transparent price breakdown and confirm without paying commission. Owners respond faster and can agree flexible terms — deposits, payment plans, extras — directly with you.

Where you stay determines the character of the trip as much as the house itself. Here is a quick guide to the destinations we currently list properties in, and what each one suits best.
Derbyshire / Peak District
Large country houses in the Peak District fringe, including Stretton House which sleeps up to 38 guests. Good for large celebrations and countryside weekends.
Yorkshire Dales
Stone farmhouses and rural retreats including Willowbrook Farmhouse in Masham (sleeps 22, hot tub, games room). Excellent value versus the Cotswolds.

One of the most popular UK group destinations — well-served by country houses and rural retreats within easy reach of Cotswolds villages.

Coastal properties and rural retreats across the South West. Best for summer group stays and active outdoor weekends.

Coastal townhouses for smaller groups, including Highfield House and Heene Terrace — both within easy reach of the seafront and a straightforward drive from London.
Browse by popular feature
Many groups have a specific feature that is non-negotiable. Use these pages to find properties where that feature is confirmed — not just listed as optional or a possibility.

Common questions about renting a group holiday home
How do I book a large group holiday house through Group Escape Houses?
Browse the listings and use the filters to narrow by location, guest numbers, price and features. When you find a property you like, click through and use the Contact Owner or Check Availability button to enquire directly with the owner. Group Escape Houses is a curated advertising platform — you deal with the owner direct, which means no booking commission, transparent pricing and faster responses.
What group sizes do your properties accommodate?
Properties on Group Escape Houses are designed for groups of 10 or more, ranging from smaller coastal townhouses sleeping 10 up to large country houses sleeping 38+. Use the guest filter to match properties to your exact headcount.
How much does it cost to rent a large group holiday house in the UK?
Prices vary by property, location, season and group size. Smaller properties sleeping 10–14 typically start from around £600–£900 per night for a weekend; larger country houses sleeping 20+ start from around £1,200–£2,500 per night. Check individual property pages for current pricing and use the 'enquire' or 'check availability' button for an exact quote. All prices shown are 'from' rates and may vary by date.
Are deposits required and can I split the cost between the group?
Most owners require a deposit of 25–50% at the time of booking, with the balance due 4–8 weeks before arrival. Deposit and payment terms are set by each individual owner and confirmed at enquiry stage. For splitting costs fairly across the group, use apps like Splitwise or Monzo group pots to collect contributions — this avoids chasing individuals close to the travel date.
Do any properties have hot tubs, games rooms or cinema rooms?
Yes — a number of properties have specific premium features. Willowbrook Farmhouse in Yorkshire has a hot tub and games room. Stretton House in Derbyshire has a cinema room and games room. Use the features filter to browse by specific amenity, or visit the features page for a full list of properties confirmed to have each feature.
How far in advance should I book?
For bank holidays, school holidays and peak summer weekends, book 4–6 months ahead. Properties with specific premium features like hot tubs and cinema rooms, and larger properties sleeping 30+, tend to book furthest ahead. For Christmas and New Year, book by October at the latest. Midweek stays and quieter winter dates can often be booked with 6–8 weeks' notice.
