Sobre Big House Experience
Escrito pela 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.

70th birthday
We had a wonderful time celebrating. The house was warm and inviting on arrival with lots of snacks and essentials we could use before our groceries arrived. Everywhere was spotlessly clean and the bedrooms were like hotel bedrooms. Only downside was the number of times the streaming service would cut out when we were watching a movie.

Hi Maureen,
Thank you for your lovely review. We're delighted your 70th birthday stay at Campden Retreat was such a special occasion and that you found the house welcoming and comfortable throughout. We appreciate you mentioning the streaming issue - we’ll make sure it’s followed up.
We’d be very happy to welcome you back to one of our special big houses in the future.

60th Birthday Celebrations
Damson Barn was easy to find due to very clear directions. On arrival we were all overwhelmed by the barns facilities and high standards. Everything was available to hand. The bedrooms were spacious and very well equipped. The large open living space was amazing to use. A great place to gather as a family.
The pool, sauna and hot tub created hours of fun for the grandchildren. The views and peaceful surroundings made for a lovely relaxing weekend. We all can’t wait to go back in the summer so we can enjoy the decking and outdoor dining facilities.
Absolutely 100% recommend this gem of a place.

We’d be delighted to welcome you back in the summer or for another stay at one of our special big houses.

Our stay at Barford Beach House
Our stay at Barford Beach House, which had been planned for well over a year, was everything we hoped it would be and more. Its very hard to organise an extended family holiday for 15 people age range from 3 to 83 (four generations). This house and location were perfect.

Longslade Hall was fantastic
Longslade Hall is a fantastic, luxurious house, and was brilliant for our family birthday celebrations. It was spotlessly clean on our arrival, and it had all the features and facilities that we could ever possibly need, even in winter the pool was lovely and warm.

Outstanding property
Absolutely stunning property in a fabulous location. Ideal for what we needed, my husband and I were getting married and wanted a venue that could fit the family in, had a pool and pool table so we picked this property. It has a fresh water pool, no chlorine smell, steam room, hot tub, games room, pool table and cinema room. Lots of big comfy seats, even with 20+ people there you never felt on top of eachother. The property is well maintained and cleaned to an extremely high standard. The staff are amazing and so pleasant. It had everything we needed, we got married on site in the workshop which is a small outbuilding, it was nice it was a place all of its own and the staff set it up for us! The online staff kept in regular contact with us and gave us everything we needed and I couldn't be happier with the service. If youre looking for a place to celebrate with family, this is it!! Just wonderful!

Family Weekend
We had a 3 generations family get-together over the weekend of 31.10.25 to 03.11.25. We have stayed at Kingswell House on a previous occasion, so new what to expect.
As before, the house was immaculately presented and we were given a quick tour and an update on anything that had changed.
We were lucky with the weather and were able to take full advantage of the tennis court and the croquet equipment. The children loved the games room and the cinema room.
Everything we needed was provided, including some lovely cake! The only thing that we were short of was a few more small port or liqueur glasses for an after dinner celebration.
Overall, it was a very enjoyable experience.

Hi John,
Thank you for sharing your lovely review. We’re so pleased you chose to return to Kingswell House for your family get-together and that it once again lived up to expectations. It sounds like you made the most of everything - from the games room and cinema to some great weather for tennis and croquet! We’ll make sure to note your feedback about the glasses for future stays.
We’d be delighted to welcome you and your family back to one of our special big houses again soon.

Birthday weekend to remember
Overall our weekend experience at Barford House was amazing - the house perfectly set up, immaculately clean throughout and exactly as we had envisaged from the photos and descriptions. The position and views from the house were incredible and, although the weather kept us all indoors for some of the weekend, there was plenty of space and varied activities inside to keep us all (from 8 -70 yrs) happy and occupied. A couple of little 'niggles' were soon sorted by the team at Big House Experience so absolutely no complaints on our part. The holding deposit was returned promptly.

Fab Wow factor House
We have just spend a fab 5 days at Olive House. The house is gorgeous, high end finish and comfortable and definitely has the WOW factor. There were 20 of us and plenty of indoor and outdoor space. The hot tub, pool, sauna, BBQ & pizza oven were thoroughly enjoyed by all. The bedrooms and bathrooms are all spacious and the layout so well thought out. I would thoroughly recommend this to anyone looking for a big house stay. Can't wait to go again

Beautiful surroundings and lovely…
Beautiful surroundings and lovely setting for such a lovely house.
The host had left a very generous gift for us to celebrate
Unfortunately the pool was cold, and despite 2 visits by a plumbing/heating company, the problem was not resolved, which resulted in most of us not wishing to use it. What surprised us was that the owner wasn't aware there was a problem.
There were a lot of little steps, and some stairs had a slight overhang; these caused one or two trips/slips, but we soon became more aware.
Big House Experience were helpful from our initial enquiry through to our visit.
We would definitely v recommend both the company and the house
