Getting the whole gang together is always a brilliant idea, but finding a place that keeps everyone entertained can be a bit of a challenge. That is why our large games room cottages in Derbyshire are absolute lifesavers. You'll have your own private space to host tournaments, settle old scores, or just let the kids burn off some steam while the adults catch up over a drink.
Why a games room is the ultimate group essential
We all know that classic holiday dilemma: what happens when the weather doesn't play ball or you just fancy a night in? Instead of everyone staring at their phones, you've got a dedicated space for pool, table tennis, or even a classic arcade machine. It turns a standard evening into a proper event. When you book one of our large holiday homes with games rooms, you’re getting more than just beds for the night. You’re getting that essential communal space where memories are made. Plus, with kitchens big enough to prep a feast for twenty and lounges that actually have enough sofas for everyone, you won't be fighting for elbow room.
Finding your perfect Derbyshire base
Derbyshire is a fantastic choice for a big group getaway, especially when you've got a games room to retreat to after a day of exploring. Whether you are planning a milestone birthday, a hen do, or just a long-overdue family reunion, there are plenty of spots that hit the mark. You might want to look at Bakewell, Buxton, Ashbourne, Matlock, or Ashford in the Water for your next big trip. Having a central hub in these areas makes it so much easier to get everyone organised and out the door for local adventures, knowing you've got a fun-filled base to come back to.
More room for fun
When you're travelling in a pack of ten, twenty, or more, space is everything. We focus on properties that offer genuine room to breathe, so you aren't all tripping over each other. Many of these places feature massive gardens perfect for a summer BBQ, hot tubs for a bit of relaxation, and enough bedrooms to make sure everyone gets a decent night's sleep. Because squeezing everyone around one tiny table isn't much fun, we make sure our large group accommodation includes those big dining areas where you can actually enjoy a meal together. And if you have a four-legged family member you can't bear to leave behind, we have plenty of big dog-friendly cottages too. It is all about making your group getaway as stress-free and exciting as possible.
