Luxury Big Cottages and Cottages Complexes for Group Stays

Multiple Holiday Cottages on One Site: How Does it work?

When you’re booking a larger retreat with multiple units on one site, it means that there’s a lot of organising of different families, friends and needs. It normally falls to one super organised friend or relative to take charge and organise a group holiday like this.

It’s often sensible to set up a group what’s app chat, agree dates and an idea of location which works for everyone and send a few initial options through to the group with a link to this Boutique Luxury Retreats collection offering different options and interpretations to multiple holiday retreats on one site.  I would then ask them to give feedback on which ones they prefer and why and you’ll soon get them telling you what their essential criteria they need to make a group holiday work.

Once you’ve worked out all of these ever changing requirements, you need to get in touch with the Owner directly via the enquiry button or button ‘to book on owners website’, which will take you through to the owners website.

Luxury Big Cottages Amenities to Consider

Group holidays like this need both space to have fun together, but also private space for downtime and relaxation. When you’re working out what group retreats to book, you need to consider the amenities that your guests are after and what are considered essential amenities and are on the nice to have list.

Perhaps you need a large entertaining area for a drinks party or a dining room for big dinner parties. You might need an extra kitchen if you’re hiring in a private chef, so that they have preparation space without having to get in the way of your group. BBQs and outdoor cooking is always popular in the summer, so perhaps an outdoor kitchen is an essential amenity for your party.

We love our retreats with shared amenities like games rooms, swimming pools or maybe a tennis court for communal activities. We’ve carefully chosen properties where you can both relax and have a lot of fun – chosen properties with facilities like a games room, a hot tub, or a swimming pool, to keep everyone entertained.

Don’t forget if you have a large party of guests, you need a lot of space. A large garden with plenty of garden games like croque and badminton always goes down well. Also some quiet areas for perhaps older members to be able to take time out, hide and recharge their batteries in the library, snug or drawing room.

Best Destinations for Cottages Groups in the UK

The UK is a wonderful country to holiday and there are many fabulous counties to explore and stay. Why not visit Herefordshire or Devon?

It’s important to agree with your group of family and friends where the ideal location is and that it’s practical for you all to reach. Many of our large group cottages are secluded properties, with some just a stone’s throw from Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty or a National Park such as The Peak District National Park.

Your party may have other ideas and want to be in a bustling market town or townhouse with fabulous local restaurants and fine dining at hand.

You might want to go for some group retreats in the trees; some of our treehouse retreats offer just that – several private treehouse retreats but in one main location.

For those groups who want to be totally looked after, you might want to consider our small and independent hotel collection
