Finding a house that ticks everyone's boxes for a multigenerational family getaway AND that fits your budget isn't easy !
Whether you are looking for celebration home with a hot tub, games room, or near the beach with a fabulous view finding one that meets your needs can feel overwhelming, I know!
Here I've shared five child and pet friendly houses perfect for a family celebration in the South of England - Kent and Dorset.
What is it you look for in a large house to share with your family? Let me know if there is something that hasn't been offered by any of these locations.
I've popped some ideas of things to do or places to visit with the children. I'll be adding some digital downloads and ideas for books to read and activities to keep the children busy while you are away!

1) Sun Beach This has to be one of my favourites - it looks like it should be somewhere abroad in the sunshine !
Celebrate with your family on the edge of the sea at this stunning accommodation!
Spend time in the hot tub with sea views, relaxing on the sun loungers or balcony while the children play in the garden. Or cosy up by the fire in the colder months.
Plenty of fun activities to do in the local area to burn off energy
2) Cosy Cottage
This beautiful farm cottage is set further inland than the others in the middle of the Kent countryside. It has traditional wooden beams, a big beautiful garden, a games room, a hot tub and even a sauna ! Even your furry friends are welcome !
3) Waters Edge
Imagine waking up to these views and your children learning all about the wildlife in this area of scientific interest !
Set further inland on a working farm, Coombe Wood Coach house has plenty for the children to explore !
Also in rural Kent, built on a previous RAF site the Officers House is steeped in history for the family to discover as well as that feeling of luxury you want for those special birthday celebrations.
I found lots of other options too. Let me know if you'd like to see more or if there are facilities you definitely need that aren't featured here.
I can't wait to grab a group of friends and visit !
Have you been to a big house that you loved and would recommend ? Let me know.
