Family activity holidays

Our family activity holidays are located in Austria, France and Spain, where there is plenty to keep everyone entertained. There is a mix of hotel-to-hotel holidays, where you move on every two days, and single-centre trips, where you are based in one hotel for the duration. It all depends on what you fancy, and who you're travelling with.

For example, on our Austrian Lakes Activities holiday you'll be provided with walking and cycling route directions and bikes and a traditional hotel will be your base for the week, whilst our Dordogne Activities tour features a mix of walking, cycling and canoeing, staying in a selection of family-run hotels, all with pools and delicious food.

A family activity holiday with Headwater means that you can enjoy the best of both worlds: an active break with family and friends, no matter what the mix. We give you all the advice, equipment, route directions and help with activities to fill your days, and the choice is yours.
