The people behind the Hall

Starting in 2011 with one house in Symonds Yat, Big House Holiday Lets has grown to offer a local agency service to owners of large self-catering holiday homes in the Forest of Dean and Wye Valley.

We have a number of well-kept characterful holiday lets big enough to sleep 18 to 50 people per group booking. Each has their own set of positive features and we will happily match you up with the right house.

None of our houses are owned by a chain. They are independent and still retain their charm and unique features. There are many similarities between them to ensure that your stay is comfortable and enjoyable from start to finish. If the one you want is not available we can usually offer another nearby.

Pick the one that suits you: a village house, a town house, a farmhouse, a riverside house, a converted coaching inn, a converted hotel, a house on a hilltop — all perfect for large self-catering holiday group accommodation.

We believe our personal service in finding you the right holiday home makes us different from other online booking sites. With our local knowledge we can listen to your needs and help you find places to visit, tell you where the local shop is, or any other detail that bigger sites simply don't know.

There's seven of us in the Team. We know every one of our large holiday cottages intimately and we know the Forest of Dean and Wye Valley too.

We live here. We drink in the pubs, eat in the restaurants, canoe the rivers, bike the forest trails, walk the paths, drive the roads, shop in the shops.

We know the specialist food providers, the micro brewers, the cider makers, the vineyards, the caterers. We're active members of the Tourism Association and if you want something we generally know who will provide it for you.

We make group accommodation holidays special, and easy for you, but only if you want to spend time in the glorious Wye Valley and Forest of Dean.

So there — a no brainer. Tell your family and friends you've found a destination, a large self-catering holiday house and a company that's going to take care of you from the minute you book till the minute you leave. They can relax, we can relax, but most importantly of all……YOU can relax.
