Group Getaways: The perfect choice for a memorable holiday
Whether you’re planning a family reunion or a weekend celebration with friends, a group getaway can provide the perfect opportunity for a memorable experience.
There are two main types of large holiday accommodation ideal for group get togethers. The first being a large Individual house with multiple bedrooms and ample shared communal space. Alternatively, you may prefer to choose a collection of individual cottages in the same location. Each option offers unique advantages and considerations.
The Large Individual holiday home
A large individual holiday house offers a range of benefits for group getaways. One of the main advantages is having your own private bedroom, whilst also having access to shared areas specifically designed for the large group to socialise and relax. This is ideal for intergenerational families or groups of friends who can all be together around one large dining table or in lounges where everyone can enjoy the fun, chat and atmosphere as a group.
At Coast and Country Stays we have a fantastic large individual house called ‘Castle View‘ . This property is in a particularly stunning location, right in the shadow of Bamburgh Castle, Northumberland. Castle View boasts 8 spacious bedrooms, each with its own en-suite bathroom and can sleep up to 18 people. The open-plan, downstairs living space provides ample shared communal areas, large enough for your whole group to get together after a day exploring the Northumberland coast. However, there are still a number of nooks and crannies to escape into!
This large house allows everyone to enjoy quality time together whilst also having their own personal space. This is particularly beneficial for intergenerational families as it allows space for those who may need their own quiet area to rest or relax, while also providing shared spaces for activities, games and get togethers.
The collection of cottages
For those who prefer a bit more privacy, a collection of cottages located next to each other can be an excellent choice. Each cottage offers its own private space, allowing guests to enjoy their own time and activities. However, the proximity of the cottages also provides opportunities for social interaction and shared experiences. Guests can easily gather to go on their adventures, whether it’s to the beach, explore the local attractions or simply meet for a chat.
At Coast and Country Stays we have the perfect location at Beadnell for a group get together for those who would rather have individual cottages. Situated in the heart of Beadnell, within easy reach of the beach, fabulous cafes and excellent pubs is a row of 7 cottages which can be booked individually or as a group booking. The cottages sleep from 2-4 people and offer fantastic flexibility and opportunities for group get togethers.
Key Considerations for Choosing the Right Accommodation
When selecting between a large holiday house or a collection of cottages, it’s important to consider the needs and preferences of your group. If you’re looking for a communal atmosphere and plenty of shared space, a large holiday house may be the best option. However, if you prefer individual time and more privacy, a collection of cottages can offer a more intimate experience.
Regardless of which option you choose, booking a group getaway offers several advantages that make it a fantastic choice for a memorable vacation.
- Cost-Effective: Sharing expenses can make a vacation more affordable for everyone involved.
- Reduced Stress: Planning and organising a trip as a group can divide the workload and reduce stress for individuals.
- Enhanced Safety: Traveling in a group can provide a greater sense of support.
- Increased Fun: Sharing laughter, joy, and experiences with loved ones can make a holiday even more enjoyable.
- Personalised Experiences: Group getaways can be tailored to the interests and preferences of the group, ensuring everyone has a fantastic time.
- Time Together: Spending quality time together can help create lasting memories.
Whether you’re planning a family reunion, a friend’s birthday celebration, or simply a weekend getaway with your closest circle, a group holiday offers a unique and rewarding experience.
