Big family stays.

Large child-friendly hideaways, sleeping 6 and above.

Family holidays are rarely quiet affairs. There are early risers and late sleepers, snack requests every 10 minutes, competitive board games… and someone’s always asking what’s for dinner. Our Big Family Stays collection brings together the best large family-friendly holiday homes in the UK – big houses and multi-unit stays, designed with families in mind.

We’ve sought out generous kitchens for feeding hungry crews, proximity to the seaside, gardens for den-building and kickabouts, and plenty of space for everyone to spread out after a day of adventures, whether that’s under the same roof or a few different ones. Some are large houses perfect for one or 2 families travelling together, while others are clever multi-unit stays where parents, grandparents and cousins can stay close by while still having their own space.

The common thread? They’re brilliantly child-friendly holiday homes – the kind where chaotic times are the best times and the holidays are the ones you’ll look back on so fondly when you’re grown up.
