Dinner party for large group

Large holiday cottages, group accommodation and big country houses to rent

Looking for a large holiday house for a group of friends / family to rent for a mini-break, long weekend (3 days) or for a longer holiday? Perhaps you are organising a wedding, celebrating a special occasion, or just going away with friends - there is a wonderful selection of big family holiday houses to rent, some by the sea, contemporary town houses, bunk houses and large country houses and lodges too.

Some of the larger more expensive houses are actually cheaper per person per night to rent than the smaller cottages, and often include luxury features for on site entertainment such as: in-house cinemas, saunas, hot tubs, swimming pools, games rooms, tennis courts, fishing, walking, cycling, shooting, large open fires and some will offer cooks for a catered option too (or you can rent a free-lance one from an agency). Do not be put off by price - when you start dividing by large numbers, it can be surprisingly cheap holiday.

Houses sleeping 8, 10, 12, 14, 16 , 18, 20, 22 - 32+ guests and above can be rented. Not restricted to the home counties, but well scattered around England, a lot of the large holiday houses are in Cornwall, Dorset and in Yorkshire, Derbyshire and Northumberland but you will see them across all the English counties too. Christmas and New Year bookings are often made at least a year in advance - don't leave it until the last minute to book a big holiday house.

Do you have reason to celebrate? - Why not arrange a party and rent a large house for the occasion!
