Large Holiday Cottages To Book in 2023
Planning a large gathering of the clan? Suppose you’re looking for group accommodation to celebrate an anniversary, hold a reunion or share with other families. In that case, a large holiday cottage can be the perfect way for groups of friends and extended families to find a venue that can accommodate everyone in style.
Instead of the traditional hotel option, large holiday cottages with many bedrooms and a choice of living rooms allow guests the freedom to let their hair down and relax without disturbing other guests.
We’ve picked out five large self-catering properties in a rural location from across the UK that can fit everyone in for a group get-together or family gathering, so have a look through, and if one of the properties really catches your eye, then click through to see more details about it.
Tempest & Triumph | North Yorkshire | Sleeps 14
One day, this could be all yours (for the weekend). Tempest and Triumph in the Yorkshire Dales. Sleeps 32
OK, let’s start with the big one! For people planning a seriously large country house weekend offering group accommodation for up to thirty-two lucky guests, look at Tempest and Triumph.
This magnificent country house in North Yorkshire is probably one of England’s finest large self-catering properties. Its 17 bedrooms, 11 bathrooms, a swimming pool, games room and landscaped with fountains are only a part of it.
Located near Skipton, guests will be torn between simply staying ’at home’ to luxuriate in this fine estate house near Skipton or discovering the beauty of the Yorkshire Dales, and Wharfedale in particular.

Broadway - Gloucestershire | Sleeps 16.
Broadway - a Large Cotswold Farmhouse Sleeping 16
