Acerca de Big House Experience
Escrito por la empresa
Our aim is simple: to offer truly wonderful experiences in truly exceptional houses, for groups of friends and families. We have curated our fabulous collection of large houses to rent with great care. Each and every house has been hand-picked with those truly wonderful experiences in mind. All have oodles of space, luxury as standard, and unique features that add the ‘wow’ factor.
We’re a family business. It started with just the two of us; husband and wife duo, Gareth and Claire Allen. We’re developing a team of lovely like-minded people around us as we grow, who will make sure we never lose that family business feel. And that means we’ll never lose that level of personal service that our wonderful guests have come to love.
We are selective. And unapologetically so. We feature only houses we’d be genuinely excited about staying in ourselves. It’s not about numbers for us – we’re happy to keep our collection of properties small and beautiful if that means we can recommend each property with confidence and pride.

Stunning property location and facilities
We have just returned from a very special break at this fantastic country home - a party of 13, 6 adults and 7 children from 2 to 14. The apple cabin has everything anyone could wish for, an adjacent building containing a spacious swimming pool, jacuzzi, table tennis and numerous other games. In the main living quarters, 5 large bedrooms, each having their own en-suites.
An enormous table seating the entire party and a fantastic log burner make the main focus of the living area. There is also a cinema/tv room should others prefer that option.
The outside seating area has views of rolling countryside.
Kitchen is fully equipped to satisfy the needs of any occasion.
This was a 60th birthday surprise and the apple cabin gave us a memory we will never forget. Thank you to all those involved.

The amazing Courtyard Granary
We have just returned from a fabulous stay at Courtyard Granary. As a family group of ten, age range 70 plus down to 3 years, the house was perfect, in our opinion, nothing could be improved. It was just as pictured, spotlessly clean, fully fitted with everything you could need and all of high quality. The games room, hot tubs and superb outdoor space were wonderful, beds were really comfortable and the kitchen well equipped. Different sets of outside tables and chairs were positioned to catch the sun with the larger one next to the bbq for evening dining.
Everything about the house felt well considered and we cannot wait to return; no-one wanted to go home!
The communication with Big House Experience from booking through to arrival was also very professional.
We would award six stars if that was an option.

Simply the best
We stayed at The Hideaway, which was the most beautiful house and in the perfect location. It fit all 20 of us without ever feeling like we were cramped in. We had the best weekend and I really feel like it was the house that made it for us!
I found the booking process really easy and the team responded to emails very quickly. Everyone came across as friendly and helpful and will definitely be my first choice if I need a big house again!

60th birthday celebration
Celebrated a 60th birthday. Great place to stay old quirky but modern also. Fantastic facilities throughout. Lovely and quiet location. Loved the hot tubs.
The garden is absolutely fantastic. We spent 5 days here as family and friends get together total of 13 adults and two small children and the rooms still never seemed full. Certainly a treasure to see.
5 stars.

The Longhouse Experience
Very warm welcome from Amelia on arrival-lovely spacious house. The en-suite bathrooms are a great bonus-well equipped kitchen which made our self catering very easy for 14 people! Family enjoyed jacuzzi and the bar area was a great success. So despite poor weather we were able to enjoy a great family holiday!

A fabulous time at Great Oak Farm
We had a fabulous time at Great Oak Farm booked through Big House Experience. The house is huge, beautifully decorated and had everything we needed for a fantastic family time celebrating my 60th Birthday. Lovely touches (a welcome food basket, English Sparkling wine in the fridge, lovely toiletries in the bathrooms) combined with plenty of spaces for adults and children make this an exceptional rental home. The playroom, outside playground and the indoor pool were all thoroughly enjoyed by the grandchildren. And a massive thank you to Fern & Farrow catering who provided a sumptuous dinner and an outstanding Sunday feast.

Lovely family Cotswold break
We were a family of 15 from under 2 to 73 and we enjoyed this beautiful large Manor House with wonderful grounds. The sauna was great, and the kids loved the football pitch and tennis court. Too cold for a dip in the lake but we went in anyway after the sauna! Bedrooms and bathrooms were excellent and the water hot and plentiful. The local pub did the best Sunday roast I have ever had out.

Lulworth House…
Lulworth House is a fantastic location with stunning views! The house is exceptionally well appointed and stocked with everything you need for a great family time. Beautifully furnished but with "lived in" feeling which is very welcome, especially with small children. The pool and the garden were especially fantastic. We appreciated the smaller details - messages from the team before we arrived to be greeted by Heidi who had ensured essential supplies (including fresh flowers) were on hand. A first class experience in every way which didn't disappoint. Thank you.

Churchside Manor was excellent
The place was amazing, Phil and his wife had done an amazing job renovating it! Really well kitted out inside and outside too! Plenty to do in the local area even with a toddler, Seascale beach was a nice day out and Muncaster castle well worth a visit! Liz and the team also really helpful to deal with throughout the whole booking process and after we’d checked out also! Would highly recommend to anyone!
