Vibrant shared spaces indoors and out bring a lift to remote working or informal catch-ups, while freerange roaming in the grounds, a maze and indoor and outdoor play areas for the kids ensure everyone’s happy, however they’re spending their time.

Portmeirion Village

The village of Portmeirion stands on a rugged clifftop on its own private peninsula overlooking Cardigan Bay on the coast of Snowdonia. It is surrounded by acres of sub-tropical woodlands and miles of sandy beaches.

Portmeirion was built from 1925 to 1976 by visionary Welsh architect Sir Clough Williams-Ellis, who wanted to prove that development need not mean defilement. All the cottages in the village are let as rooms and suites as part of the Hotel Portmeirion or as self-catering cottages sleeping up to 8 people. The village has several cafes and eight different shops.

Many know Portmeirion as the location for Patrick McGoohan's classic "The Prisoner" television series. It is also known for the Portmeirion Pottery, designed by Clough's daughter Susan Williams-Ellis. A new contemporary styled brasserie opened at Castell Deudraeth in 2001.

Portmeirion is signposted from the A487 at Minffordd midway between Penrhyndeudraeth and Porthmadog.

Where memories are made

Just over 2 miles from the beautiful North Cornish coastline, West Woolley Farm in Bude has a selection of luxury child friendly cottages, a great place for your children to enjoy the seaside, meet our friendly animals, and make new friends.

Children love feeding our chickens, ducks, pigs, sheep and pygmy goats every morning, borrowing our buckets and spades to take to the beach, or working off some energy in our sports barn complete with ride-on toys.

Parents love unwinding in the comfort of our beautifully equipped four star barn conversions, the fresh air, fabulous walks and family-friendly pubs and restaurants, and the fact that they can easily get to us (M5 75 minutes) as well as to great family attractions in Devon and Cornwall.

Together you’ll create new memories that will last forever – the children’s laughter as the chickens and goats eat from their hands, their first paddle on one of our fantastic beaches, or the waves lapping at the sandcastle you built together.

We provide cots, high chairs and stairgates so you don’t have to, and are on hand to provide advice about the best beaches and days out to make your holiday special.

Take a look at our website for lots more information, photos, availability and easy online booking.

Child friendly holidays in Devon

Caffyns Farm finds itself as a contradiction, close enough to smell the sea air despite being a stone's throw from woodlands; exciting in it's immediacy to outstanding tourist sites yet in its secludedness.

A family friendly non-booking pitch-free relaxed campsite (complete with a ensuite B&B & self contained Family Suite that sleeps 6 for the non-campers) set high overlooking the Valley of the Rocks and Lynton & Lynmouth, this working farm has diversified to include many points of interest in recent years.

The onsite bar/restaurant located within a converted Doomsday Book-old stone barn offers a home to home. From eating freshly-made flavoursome food to drinking cider brewed from our 3000-tree strong farm apple orchard to even feasting with the goats via Devon's only Goat Cafe the hospitality contained within these old stones will not leave you disappointed.

The 12 acre orchard offers itself as breathtakingly peaceful paradise to get lost within on the short 25 minute walk down to our nearest beach which also takes you past many of our more social animals such as the donkeys, turkeys, chickens & sheep who are always welcome for a farmyard natter. Our own craft cider made is sold in our fully stocked camping/farm shop (alongside the bar) which contains many camping essentials and locally sourced products.

Horse Riding gives you a different perspective with which to explore the farm and the majesty of surrounding Exmoor. As the only coastal trekking centre that caters for all ages (5+) we have a number of different options and lengths of ride to suit everyone from the first timer to the seasoned riding veteran.

So from camping to horse riding to cider drinking to goat schmoozing we feel Caffyns has everything a campsite could ever dream of and just a little more.

family friendly cottage holidays

Nettlecombe Farm has been in the Morris family for over a century, and you'll still meet us around the farm today. In the heart of the rolling Isle of Wight countryside, our farm is at the top of a quiet lane half a mile from the sleepy village of Whitwell. Surrounded by green fields and lakes, our luxurious child friendly self-catering holiday accommodation on the Isle of Wight is not only safe and comfortable for visitors of all ages and abilities, it's also the perfect base to explore the farm with its friendly animals - or the Islands wider countryside and scenic coastline.

Visitors are welcome to explore the farm and meet the animals, and there's plenty of fun to be had at any time of the year. In the Rickyard there is a wide variety of livestock to make friends with - usually chickens, geese, turkeys, pigs, goats, rabbits and even our reindeer ‘Comet & Dancer’. In springtime orphan lambs sometimes need feeding with milk, which can be messy but is always popular! When the kids need to let off steam there is a range of grassed play areas, toddlers play equipment, a big Wendy house, our fabulous wooden tractor and a rustic climbing play facility. For the older children there is a sports area ideal for all sorts of games and football. Our three fully-stocked fishing lakes and of course the farm and nearby countryside is full of places to explore, walk and cycle, and Nettlecombe is a dog-friendly farm too. You might be tempted to enjoy some relaxing yoga at one of our sessions in the modern function barn.

Our beautiful rural setting is quiet and secluded, but it's easy to use the farm as a base to explore the beautiful island that is our home. Explore Queen Victoria's country retreat at Osborne House, see where King Charles I was imprisoned at Carisbrooke Castle, or just marvel at the spectacular Needles. Beaches are especially easy to reach from Nettlecombe Farm, from the dramatic shoreline at Compton to the miles of golden sands and seaside amusements at Sandown and Shanklin.

We think you will love this part of the Isle of Wight as much as we do. The passing of the seasons and the changing landscape make Nettlecombe Farm worth visiting at any time of year and we are happy to offer short breaks for out of season guests visiting between October & May.

Since 1977, the Peter Le Marchant Trust has provided day trips and longer holidays for disabled and seriously ill people of all disabilities and all ages on specially designed canal boats. Over half our passengers are aged under eighteen.

From April to October inclusive, “Symphony” takes 26 people on day trips (including weekends), “Serenade” takes 10 people on 3/4 night holidays, and narrowboat “Melody” is available for weekly hire by a family or group with at least one disabled member. Charges are kept to a minimum so as not to exclude any groups. The remainder is raised in donations.

Child friendly farm holidays in South Devon

Knowle Farm is a paradise for little children with animals galore, indoor and outdoor play areas, indoor heated pool, tennis and so much more - all set in 44 acres of beautiful South Devon countryside making it perfect for family friendly holidays.

The purpose built indoor toddler soft play area plus new outdoor toddler race track with ride-on toys, tractor tyre tunnel and play house are a real hit. The race track surrounds a large walk-in rabbit enclosure where children can stroke and feed the rabbits. Our pigs ‘Rasha’ and ‘Streakie’ are really popular with the children along with our miniature donkeys who love to be stroked. Don’t forget our alpacas, sheep, Pete the Dartmoor pony and his friend ‘Apache’ the skewbald donkey – they all love to say hello. Open your cottage door the chickens and ducks will be waiting, hoping to be fed.

There are six beautifully converted barns and the cottage range includes one, two, three and four bedrooms sleeping from two to eight plus cots. We hold a Gold Award for exceptional quality of accommodation, have a Four Star rating and also a Gold Award from the Green Tourism Business Scheme.

The indoor heated pool is ideal for children with gentle steps to the shallow end and you can arrange swimming lessons with a qualified teacher. We also have our very own woodland and riverside walks where you can truly relax.

The area is awash with local attractions including steam trains and river trips and there is an excellent 11th century local village pub that is child friendly (baby-sitting can be arranged). Wonderful sandy beaches are within 30 minutes. Dartmoor National Park is on our doorstep.
