Having recently given birth I'm looking to treat myself and book my Summer Holiday and wondered if anyone can recommend somewhere family friendly?

I'm after somewhere in Europe (2-4 hours flight time), with a kids club for a 3 year old and also suitable for a 4/5month baby (a room with a small kitchen/kitchenette would be fab). Ideally a high 4 or 5 star type hotel/accomodation in a small resort but with good restaurants in walking distance would be perfect. Any suggestions appreciated!

We often go to Italy (everywhere from the north to the south) with the children as it's close and very child friendly (2 hour flight). We use the service tuscanynow.com.


Also, Greece is a good option for resort-type places with kids clubs, swimming pools and beaches (4 hour flight). We've stayed at one called the Sani Resort in Halkidiki which had a nice spa for the adults and a lot of restaurants in the harbour within walking distance.


Haven't used babyfriendlyboltholes but their website looks lovely and easy to use.


Have a lovely holiday!

would recommend Pefkos in Rhodes. Apartments are called Pefki Island Resort. Lovely clean place, people friendly, got two resorts where you can use the facilities in each resort, 3 pools, within 5 minutes of restaurants, bars etc. We have been going for years, you book thru Thomson. have a look at their website at the photos and reviews.

Agree with above posts but am firmly committed to Eurocamp/Keycamp type holidays. We usually go to France and hire a Mobile Home and yes we fly these days ( usually with Ryanair plus car hire). Good quality campsites offer a huge range of entertainment including Kid's Clubs. France never fails to have some delightful local restaurants which are always child friendly. Admittedly I hadn't been on such a holiday with a child as young as yours but with hindsight , would have done. To have a fully functioning kitchen to me is a real Godsend.


Anyway have a lovely holiday whatever you choose.

    • @NewWave I know how you feel. Like you, I've lived and spent prolonged periods of time in some pretty crazy places and always thought I could handle a bunch of kids. But, no - they got to me and I was shaking like a leaf afterwards. That's what age does to us.  But I did engage with them, so bear that in mind.  My advice would be to never let anything like that stop you doing the things you love. I'm certainly not going to stop using the park, there's no way they get to take away our cherished spaces!  If you see them, just change tack and keep out of their way. My dog won't even go that way again, so that's that problem solved. (If I see them again, I'm going to keep taking photos from a safe distance). 
    • Truly horrific. Being passive or fighting back is what many of us think about by violent theft. 
    • What ridiculous waste of money 
    • Lots of good primary schools within reach of there. Fairlawn, Goodrich, Ivydale and Horiman. Secondary schools you will definitely get into the Harris Academies or Sydenham Girls or Forest Hill Boys, you might just be on the boundary for the East Dulwich or North Dulwich Charter but it changes every year.
