At Oliver’s Travels, we’re looking forward to getting away with our family and friends again, making memories that will last a lifetime in some of our exclusive wow-factor party houses. With luxury villas, grand manor houses and magical chateaux to choose from, there’s somewhere to suit every type of 2024 reunion holiday. So let’s get planning – you’ve already spent far too long apart.
If you want the experience of a hotel, the privacy of a villa and the history of a castle, we’d recommend Chateau Noble for your 2024 reunion. Story is ingrained into every inch of this noble residence, which was founded 400 years ago by a Lord using money gifted to him from King Louis XIII. Part of our Vill’otel collection, the chateau can come fully staffed, including a chef, butler and maid service, so you can relax in the classical furniture and focus on what’s most important: spending time together.
Don’t forget to sample the various honey, jams, herbs and fruits you’ll be served – these are either produced locally or at the chateau itself, and you can really taste the difference. You’ll probably want to give foie gras a go too, as the local town of Samatan is famous for this divisive dish.
This sprawling Grade-II listed home in Suffolk offers enough space for 22 guests to recharge and reconnect. No matter your age, you’ll love splashing in the swimming pool or playing a few games on the tennis court, while the property also acts as an ideal base for exploring the local area – think long afternoons spent cycling down the coast, bird-watching on the beach or even taking a boat trip. Then, come together by candlelight in the stunning dining room, sitting back as you sample delicious local cuisine from a private chef.
What better backdrop for your 2024 reunion than idyllic Sorrento? The perfect base to explore the stunning Amalfi Coast, Villa Bahia offers spectacular views of the deep blue sea from the pool and two terraces, allowing you to wake up to the most stunning sunrises imaginable. Designed with al fresco dining in mind, it comes equipped with a barbeque, pizza oven and fresh vines bursting with lemons, oranges and pomegranates for the picking!
Craving a little quiet time among all the fun and games? The Rose Angle bench provides the perfect spot to get lost in a good book surrounded by beautiful blooms. However you experience this exclusive villa, you’ll really feel like you’ve jumped right into a postcard.
Whether you’ll be snuggling down for a winter 2024 reunion or taking a dip in the loch come summer, Scotland’s Loch Lomond Manor offers a tranquil spot to relax and unwind together. Standing in stark contrast to the surrounding more modern architecture, this 1901 National Monuments house provides beautiful views over the Clyde and beyond, inspiring you to get out on various day trips – will you pick the Highlands, Fort William, or head a little further to Glasgow?
Fitting 12 across six characterful bedrooms, it will surely prove a favourite for younger guests once they see the staggering gardens or have a go on the tree swing. We’d recommend visiting the outside Hut for a spot of afternoon tea or post-dinner drink – there aren’t many settings more calming and cosy.
This striking property is aptly named Paradise. An architectural gem on the edge of windswept sand dunes in South Africa’s stunning Eastern Cape that comprises a fabulous infinity pool and private chef. Kick back with your party of 8 guests and enjoy sundowners with the backdrop of Indian Ocean views and bushveld scenery. Your only neighbours are a herd of giraffes!
You’ll love the central courtyard with plunge pool – as if you needed even more serenity at this wondrous spot…!
Situated within the walls of Loire Valley’s Loches, 18th-century Palais D’Or is bursting with history. When you’re not relaxing within its acre of gardens, dining al fresco on the terrace, or revelling in the gold spine shower, venture into the city to discover an array of bustling markets and picturesque restaurants. A stroll along the river is a must – perhaps you’ll even rent out a canoe? – before heading back to your palace to unwind like royals do: with a candlelit feast.
Looking for a property that seems straight out of a storybook? Search no further: Villa Elounda is located just a short boat ride away from Spinalonga, the inspiration for Victoria Hislop’s “The Island” novel. However, there’s just as much to take in back at your stunning home away from home, nestled within a majestic hillside that’s bursting with olive trees.
Featuring contemporary furnishings within a communal open-plan setting, it benefits from ample natural light through the French doors and high ceilings. While the Crete villa already sleeps 12, you can book it in tandem with neighbouring Villa Elounda Megali to truly bring everyone back together again for your 2024 reunion.
Located in the heart of the New Forest National Park, The Brick House is a perfect 2024 reunion property for those more adventurous groups. While you can choose to relax within its charming brickwork interiors, making the most of the cosy wood burner in winter and spacious terrace come summer, you’re also ideally positioned for exploring the surrounding area by foot, bike, or even boat.
Expand your party further by having four additional guests stay in the Annexe, coming together on the large lawn for outdoor games or even a barbecue.
Morning dips, stargazing and sundowners on the lawn, all this and more is possible at Spindrift, one of Devon’s most luxurious and contemporary homes. This coastal jewel is ideal for up to 10 guests to enjoy a private getaway with a beautiful backdrop and stunning walks and beaches within easy reach. Indulge in dinners together with sweeping sea views. Dreamy!
After the last couple of years, you deserve a trip worthy of royalty – Elizabethan Manor is certainly a fitting choice, boasting Queen Elizabeth I among its previous guest list. Nestled in the idyllic village of Pulborough, Sussex and dating back to 1252, it brings together vintage details like a working fireplace and period paintings, with all the modern features you need to feel comfortable – a heated swimming pool, BBQ terrace and tennis court, to name just a few.
While you’ll already have over an acre of private land to explore, this Grade-II listed building also serves as a great base for discovering the local towns of Goodwood, Petworth, or perhaps South Down National Park. However, with the rich furnishings, chandelier-lit dining room and spiral staircase, we wouldn’t blame you if you choose to just stay in again.
At Oliver’s Travels, we have a huge selection of stunning villas, storied chateaux and spacious manors, wow-factor holiday homes and party houses to fit any type of 2024 reunion, large group or gathering.
So if you’re ready to get the planning started, just fill in this quick form and we’ll help find the perfect place for your next big holiday.
