adult only holidays

Even if you love children, sometimes you just want to get away to somewhere special where you know that noisy children are never going to disturb your peace...

... and this can be particularly important during half terms and school holidays.  So, whether you're looking for an active holiday or just somewhere to lie back and relax in the sunshine, we have a carefully selected portfolio of adult only hotels and resorts that may be perfect for you.  This is true if you're travelling solo or as a couple, or as a group of adults.

Of course, outside of school holidays, practically all our featured resorts will be 'child free', but during the school holidays is when our adult only recommendations will come in particularly handy for you.  Here are some ideas...
