The Power of the Private Estate: Why Your Next Group Trip Needs More Space.
Finding a holiday home that fits everyone is hard. Finding one that lets everyone actually relax is even harder.
At Breakwater Holidays, we’ve always believed that the best memories are made when you have the space to be yourself. That’s why we are so excited to introduce the newest jewels in our crown: The Bydown Collection and Weekstone Lakes Estate.
Bydown: The Ultimate Family “Village”
Located in the quiet village of Swimbridge, Bydown isn’t just a house—it’s a private compound. By booking the whole site, you get:
- Bydown Cottage, Lodge, and Barn: Sleeping 13 in total.
- The Shared Joy: A massive lawn for games, a gym for the early risers, and two hot tubs for sunset drinks.
- The Private Peace: Grandparents can retreat to the quiet of the Barn while the kids (and the noise!) stay in the main Cottage.
Weekstone Lakes: Lakeside Luxury Meets Adventure
On the border of Devon and Cornwall lies a gated sanctuary designed for those who want a bit of “extra” with their holiday.
- Scale: The Lake View Big Barn can host up to 26 guests—perfect for milestone birthdays.
- The Tech: From mood-lit sensory en-suites to kitchens that would make a professional chef jealous.
- The Perks: Spend your morning paddleboarding on the lake or take advantage of the complimentary golf rounds at the neighboring club.
Which one is for you?
If you crave traditional countryside charm and easy access to Exmoor, Bydown is your match. If you want high-concept design, lakeside views, and a touch of “resort” living, Weekstone Lakes is calling your name.
