Our Favourite Family-moon Accommodations in the UK

If you already have children when you get married, it does not mean that you must enjoy your honeymoon without them. We at Suitcase Travel have a real mix of couples who do and do not take their children on honeymoon and even couples who do both! Why not do both – it is your honeymoon after all.

For those that opt for celebrating being newly married with their children, known as a familymoon, the UK is a popular choice. It makes sense as travelling with children can sometimes be challenging so being able to jump into your car and leave at your own time can be a great option. As a result, Penny who is our resident honeymoon expert, has picked her top 6 UK accommodations for a perfect familymoon. Whether you have a baby, toddler or teenage children, you will like all these recommendations.

Talacre Beach Resort – Axminster, Devon

Talacre Beach is a 5-star Tourist Board award winning retreat that blends the traditional seaside holiday with a contemporary twist, and a touch of nostalgia. It has direct access to the beach for all to enjoy and is close to Snowdonia National Park for you to explore. The children of all ages will not get bored here with the variety of activities that are on offer including snorkelling, body zorbing, crossbows and raft building plus a tropically heated indoor pool to splash about in. There are also various clubs for children of all ages to give the adults a little time to themselves if they wish. To help the adults relax more there is the sauna and steam room.

Landal Kielder Waterside – Kielder Water and Forest Park, Northumberland

We have another award winning destination for a perfect familymoon. The location is situated where you have the darkest skies in England so you can all get cosy together under the stars to see them like you never have before.

Whether you are a thrill seeker or searching for a relaxing break create your magical moments at Kielder. There is adrenaline fuelled mountain bike trails for the adventurous and leisurely strolls through the forest for those that like to take it a little slower.
