Family Holidays in Herefordshire
With beautiful countryside, castles, wildlife, family attractions and plenty of open space to explore, it offers the perfect balance of outdoor adventure and opportunities to simply slow down and spend quality time together.
At Scenic Stays Herefordshire, we offer three family-friendly properties, each with its own character and facilities. Trevase Granary and Penblaith Barn each sleep up to 18 guests (plus infants in cots) across eight en-suite bedrooms, with dedicated cinema rooms, games rooms and hot tubs, making them ideal for larger family gatherings. Old Barn House offers a more intimate setting for up to eight guests (plus infants in cots), with an enclosed garden, private hot tub and peaceful countryside location.
Spacious, fully equipped kitchens, generous dining areas and outdoor barbecues make self-catering easy, whether you’re preparing breakfast before a day exploring or gathering together for relaxed family meals in the evening. Combined with thoughtful family-friendly facilities throughout, our properties have been designed to help you spend less time worrying about the practicalities and more time enjoying your holiday together.
We know travelling with young children often means packing more than you’d like. To help make your journey a little easier, we provide a range of complimentary family equipment at each property.
