If you’re holidaying with small children, then Dorset is a great spot and the old-fashioned seaside resorts offer plenty of beach fun. Take the kids to paddle in Weymouth and Swanage, visit the beautiful Isle of Purbeck, run free on a wide open beach at Studland or go fossil-hunting on Chesil Beach. And don’t forget the aquariums, Monkey World and ...
With chalky white towering stacks stretching out into the English Channel, secluded sandy beaches with clear water and timeless villages, the Isle of Wight is picture perfect. And with the added bonus of being reached via ferry, it very nearly counts as a trip ‘abroad’! The Isle of Wight is the perfect family getaway and as soon as you hop off your...
Norfolk is a firm family favourite, with gasp-worthy beaches and traditional seaside resorts offering tons of quayside seafood (ie fish and chips) opportunities. Popular spots along the coast include Cromer, Wells-next-the-Sea and Hunstanton. For traditional British seaside classics like pleasure piers and arcades, head to Great Yarmouth’s Golden M...
Historical sites to take you back through time, vast landscapes to explore, and wildlife to make you go ‘aw’ – that’s Northumberland. Countless castles jostle for attention, and we mean ‘proper’ castles with battlements and portcullises, ghostly ruins guarding endless sandy beaches, and ones that echo with ancient footsteps. Bamburgh’s imposing cas...
Yorkshire’s a brilliant bet for something every member of the family will enjoy – it’s got dales and moors, peaks, national parks and a breath-taking coastline to boot. For those water babies, there is a Sea Life centre at Scarborough, penny arcades and a wide array of family-friendly beaches. Pack your swimmers and head to one of Yorkshire’s lates...
How could the entire family not be charmed by the yellow-stone Cotswold hamlets, chocolate box cottages, and stately manors perched on rolling emerald hills? If you like the great outdoors, these west-central hills are a real treat for walking. If you haven’t spotted buzzards sweeping across the hilltops, get a bird’s eye view of species like barn ...
The North East county of Tyne and Wear is brimming with cultural quayside cities and sandy North Sea beaches like Tynemouth Longsands where the surf is almost always up. There are several cosmopolitan cities to visit, including Newcastle (named Rough Guides’ top place to visit for 2018) and Gateshead, where heritage, culture and art are a heady mix...
“There’s nothing to do,” said no one on holiday in the Scottish Highlands, ever! With wildlife parks, a mountain railway, outdoor adventure parks (think zip wires, quad biking, climbing wall, archery, clay pigeon shooting, gorge walking, kayaking and more) plus fishing, grass sledging, an indoor ‘fun house’, and miles and miles of beautiful trails…...
Pembrokeshire, tucked away in South West Wales, is a remote but beautiful corner of the UK, with spectacular coastlines on three sides and gorgeous countryside alongside highly picturesque towns such as Tenby, Fishguard and Haverfordwest. Home to the UK’s only coastal national park, it’s a great spot for an active family break – especially if you’r...
A UK holiday round-up which doesn’t mention Cornwall? Impossible. A perennial favourite for families, Cornwall has breathtaking coastline, family-friendly beaches and attractions like Land’s End, The Minack open-air theatre, St Michael’s Mount, and the Eden Project. Hayle is a popular destination, with its miles of sandy beaches. There’s surfing le...
14 of the best UK holidays for families. From seaside resorts and holiday parks to sandy beaches, National Trust knockouts and shoreline sights, these are the places to take your clan.
- Jimi Famurewa
- Blackberry Wood, Sussex. It’s easy to see why securing a summer booking at this boutique campsite can be a little like getting your hands on a Glastonbury ticket.
- Bournemouth Beach Lodges, Dorset. Seaside huts – even when they’re glorified cupboards – always have huge waiting lists and spark an oddly intense desire in people who don’t live near a beach.
- House in the Clouds, Suffolk. It may look like a crashed, balloon-free version of the house from Up, but this 1920s water tower – cunningly disguised by an architect as a floating abode – is actually a uniquely kooky bit of family accommodation.
- Loveland Farm Pods, Devon. Off-grid living and futuristic design collide in the form of these appealing geodesic Loveland Farm Pods, perched on farmland in distractingly pretty north-west Devon.
