Family Friendly Places

With everyone leading busy separate lives, it can seem almost impossible to get all your loved ones in the same place at the same time. School, jobs and social lives are just a few of the things in a long list of commitments which prevent us from being free to see the people we care about as much as we would like. And that’s where cottages for family holidays come in. It’s a chance to have a decent chunk of time with the whole gang – children, parents, grandparents, cousins, partners and anyone else who gets an invite. Click to view all the Ideas and Inspiration categories for your unique holidays.

The great thing about a family villa holiday is that wherever you go there will be something to entertain everyone. For the children, you can pick somewhere with a pool, or gardens with lots of hiding places. For the older members of the party you might want somewhere with quiet, shady spots for reading and enjoying the views. If you’re based inland you might find yourself somewhere you can all go out for a long walk, watching wildlife and exploring historic places and natural wonders. Alternatively, if your family villa holiday is based on the coast you will have a whole host of activities available to you – whether that is leisurely sunbathing or energetic water sports.
