Ed Maughan

Nothing says luxury like a private swimming pool, and when you’re planning a group getaway, having one all to yourselves takes the experience to the next level. Whether it’s an early morning dip, a lazy afternoon lounging by the water, or an evening swim under the stars, a pool adds something special to any holiday.

From grand countryside estates in the UK to sun-soaked villas in France, these 12 incredible properties offer the perfect mix of relaxation and fun. Some feature heated indoor pools for year-round enjoyment, while others boast outdoor pools with stunning views, ideal for making the most of summer days. Whether you’re celebrating a big occasion, enjoying a family break, or just escaping for some well-earned downtime with friends, a private pool makes all the difference.

In this blog, we’ve rounded up some of the best large holiday houses with private pools, offering everything from stylish modern retreats to charming rural escapes. So pack your swimwear, grab your suncream (or your robe for those winter dips!), and get ready to find your perfect group stay.
