Travel has always been one of the most important parts of our family life – not just for the destinations themselves, but for the memories made along the way.
As our twins have grown into teenagers, the way we travel has naturally changed too. Family holidays now look less like surviving nap schedules and more like shared experiences: city breaks, ski trips, beach escapes, countryside weekends, and discovering places that all of us genuinely enjoy together.
This section of Raising Twins is a space for family travel inspiration with older children and teens in mind. Here you’ll find honest recommendations, beautiful places to stay, practical travel advice, and ideas for making family trips feel memorable, relaxed, and enjoyable for everyone.
You can expect:
- Family-friendly destination guides
- Hotel and resort reviews
- UK escapes and European travel inspiration
- Ski holidays, beach trips, and seasonal travel ideas
- Travel tips for families with teenagers
- Packing inspiration and travel essentials
- Realistic, honest insights into travelling as a family
We love finding places that feel special without being overly complicated – whether that’s a cosy countryside hotel, a stylish city stay, or a sunshine escape that gives everyone time to properly switch off.
Most of all, this section is about encouraging families to keep exploring together. Travel changes as children grow, but the experiences become even more meaningful — and some of the best conversations, laughs, and memories happen when you’re away from everyday life and simply spending time together.
