A seventieth birthday in Sicily
A baroque villa with a lift, eleven of us across three generations, a chef in for four of the nights and a boat day the teenagers still talk about.

Multi-generational trips are the hardest thing we plan and the ones people remember longest. Grandparents who need a lift rather than a staircase, teenagers who need wifi and a boat, toddlers who need a nap, and one person quietly paying for all of it.
The trick is a house or hotel that can hold all of that at once, and a week with enough optional days that nobody has to do everything.

Exclusive use of a sporting estate, every fire lit, a chef for Christmas Day and walks graded so both grandparents and small children had one they could do.

Two houses side by side rather than one compromise, shared long lunches, and separate evenings so everyone stayed friends.
Bedrooms that are genuinely equal, and one on the ground floor.
A chef, a housekeeper and a driver, so no relative ends up hosting.
Booked a year out. Big houses at Christmas and August go absurdly early.
