We found 15 holidays in Family Holidays in France
France is one of the great family holiday destinations, and for good reason. It's close enough to feel easy, different enough to feel like a proper adventure, and set up magnificently for families with children of any age. A short ferry crossing or a couple of hours on the Eurostar and you're in a country where the food is a genuine pleasure, the pace is unhurried, the roads are clear and the welcome is warm. French hosts, almost without exception, love children. The question isn't whether to take the kids to France. It's where to go and what suits your family best right now. Brittany and Normandy are the natural first choice for families making their first French trip. Easy to reach from Portsmouth, Plymouth or Dover, reliably beautiful, and packed with beaches, crêperies and things to do. Stone gite complexes with pools, farm animals nearby and a market town within cycling distance are the staple here, and they're hard to beat. The Dordogne and Lot suit families who want space, sun and something to explore. Honey-coloured villages, rivers perfect for kayaking, prehistoric caves that genuinely awe children of every age, and some of the finest family gite complexes in Europe. This is where a proper French holiday happens. The South of France is for families ready for something more luxurious. Lavender fields, long hot summers, outstanding pools and full-board child-friendly hotels in France where you arrive on Sunday and barely need to think again until Friday. All of the properties you'll find here are Away with the Kids approved, visited, vetted and loved by families with children of their own.
