If you’re looking for a large holiday house to rent for Christmas 2021, we have one word of advice: HURRY! Seriously, things have been so bonkers this past year that we’ve had to move bookings forward and with that and people not wanting to miss out again, we don’t have much availability at all now for this year. But we do have some, like a handful of properties that aren’t booked, so be quick and you can look forward to a fabulous festive celebration with your favourite folk.

For obvious reasons, there’s a huge demand for large holiday houses for the summer, so if you’re thinking of having a week or a few days away with all your favourite people, now’s the time to book. We have some of the best large group accommodation in the UK, sleeping up to 30 people, with heaps of space and luxury facilities like indoor pools, hot tubs, saunas, games rooms, cinema rooms, BBQ lodges and children’s play areas. Something for all ages.

This month we welcome the first guests to Kingshay Barton in Somerset, a large luxury holiday house with a private indoor pool – and what a beauty!

Huge congratulations to property owner George Bannister for such an awesome achievement! Please cast your vote accordingly!
