All the streaming, ready to go

Netflix, Disney+, Amazon and NOW signed in on the Smart TV at every home.

Toys, books and colouring

A little corner of things to keep smaller guests happy on a rainy afternoon.

Complimentary welcome snacks

A little welcome for the first night in, so you don't need to head straight out.

Why guests choose us

Wick & Co curates a small collection of homes for the kind of family stay we'd want ourselves. Multiple bedrooms so nobody's sharing who doesn't want to, proper kitchens so a birthday breakfast is a real one, and gardens that open straight out from the living space so children can run about while dinner is on. Where a home has a hot tub, it sits under a lit pergola in a private garden.

We've tried to think of the small things across every home. Travel cots and highchairs on request, stocked welcome trays, hotel quality linen so the beds are actually restful, blackout blinds in the bedrooms, and streaming ready on the TV. There are books and board games for quiet afternoons, and a little cupboard of welcome snacks waiting when you arrive.

The South West is easy for families. Canal walks, country parks, museums and open countryside are on the doorstep of every home. Tell us your dates and what your children like, and we'll suggest the home that fits best.
