It doesn\u2019t have to be this way! Here are four of the best luxury family hotels in the UK, where children are warmly welcomed, and there&#8217;s no need for compromise. Whether you\u2019re looking for a chic city break or a countryside getaway, these hotels go above and beyond to make your stay unforgettable.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Stoke Park<\/h3>\n<p>With its grand suites and grounds designed by Capability Brown, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.slh.com\/hotels\/stoke-park\/\">Stoke Park<\/a> may seem very grown-up, but it\u2019s an ideal family hotel. In fact, Cond\u00e9 Nast Traveller has previously named Stoke Park one of its top 10 family retreats. For older children and teenagers there is plenty to do inside and out, with 13 indoor and outdoor tennis courts and access to golf lessons on the hotel\u2019s course. There\u2019s also a games room with air hockey, table tennis and table football. And finally, there are the pool and children\u2019s fitness classes run in the hotel\u2019s state-of-the-art sports centre. For the younger ones, a children\u2019s programme and a cr\u00e8che are available, as well as a babysitting service. The kids can even enjoy a taste of the finer things at the Little Stars Afternoon Tea in the hotel\u2019s orangery, complete with milkshakes, chocolate brownies and mini sandwiches.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"990\" height=\"500\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-7919\" src=\"https:\/\/testjournal.slh.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Stoke-Park-Collage-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/journal.slh.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Stoke-Park-Collage-1.jpg 990w, https:\/\/journal.slh.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Stoke-Park-Collage-1-300x152.jpg 300w, https:\/\/journal.slh.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Stoke-Park-Collage-1-768x388.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 990px) 100vw, 990px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>The Nare<\/h3>\n<p>The soft sand and blue waves of Carne Beach are just a few steps away from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.slh.com\/hotels\/the-nare-hotel\/\">the Nare<\/a>.
