Why Oakwood Suits Family Stays

Family accommodation needs to work for everyone in the group, from practical room arrangements to food that keeps children happy without compromising on quality for the adults. Oakwood was built around the idea of purposeful spaces and genuine hospitality, and that extends naturally to how we approach family stays — comfortable rooms, straightforward parking, and dining options suited to a range of ages and appetites.

Our rooms can be arranged to suit family groups, whether that’s booking adjoining or nearby rooms for a family with children or a larger group of relatives travelling together. Our team is happy to discuss the best room configuration for your family’s needs ahead of booking.

Dining Options for Families

Food and drink sit at the centre of the Oakwood experience, and our dining spaces are built to suit different occasions within a family stay. The Pub offers a relaxed, informal setting well suited to family meals, with a menu built around Gloucestershire-sourced produce that doesn’t compromise on quality just because children are at the table. For a more special evening out during the stay, The Grill provides a slightly more considered dining experience, suited to older children or a parents’ evening out if grandparents or other family are also staying.
