Going on holiday with the family should be a highlight of the year. But as many a stressed-out parent will attest, keeping everyone happy and entertained can be challenging.
That means choosing the right place is crucial. You’ll want to make sure there’s plenty for the kids to do, but ideally with scope for a few grown-up adventures – everyone’s on holiday, after all.
Well, we’ve chosen these unique retreats with just that objective in mind. Rich in family-friendly adventure by themselves, they’re also close to (or in some cases, right on!) immersive attractions that all but guarantee a fun-filled holiday for everyone.
A mere hour from Disneyland Paris, you can bed down in one of two enormous themed suites, with child-friendly furniture, indoor games, and delights that include a Citroen Mehari car-bed, a circus-themed bathroom, and a ‘mini club’ room with disco lights!
Longer breaks could see you heading for the US of A, perhaps to a vibrant animation-themed retreat in Pennsylvania’s ‘Red Rose City’, or a movie-themed pirate ship in Wisconsin Dells – a city famed for its abundance of theme parks.
Staying closer to home? Sleep in a scrumptious Oreo bed (yes really) at Chessington World of Adventures, or make like a fairytale princess in an enchanting Alton Towers-based treehouse… your choice.
There’s much more to choose from here, including underwater suites, school-bus stays, and thrilling ‘film-set’ glamping. Come and take a look!
