Simpson Travel

Award-winning Simpson Travel’s family-friendly holiday collection features the most beautiful destinations across Corsica, Greece, Mallorca, France, Italy and Turkey. And whether you choose a spacious villa (with or without professional childcare), boutique Simpson Hotel or a contemporary apartment near the beach, the same personalised, friendly, professional service applies. This even extends to complimentary infant packs at more than 80 properties in Mallorca, Corfu, Lefkada, Zakynthos and Corsica.

A family-run company with children and grandchildren of their own, Simpson Travel draws on over 40 years of travel experience. The result is a generous choice of holidays, all expertly chosen to meet the needs of parents and children, from tots to teens.

With personal recommendations from a team of travel specialists who have spent time in each villa, apartment and hotel, and the support of a dedicated overseas representative while you’re away, you’ll always have the advice you need, whether you’re looking for inspired ideas for fun days out the nearest chemist. Weekend departures, many with British Airways and access to airport parking and lounge access only make the experience even more effortless.

At the heart of the collection are the two much-loved Simpsons. Mousses in Lefkada and Periyali in Zakynthos both offer the independence of your own private villa, but with all the facilities you need within easy reach, including sandy beaches, shops and tavernas – as well as the flexible sessions of professional childcare provided by a wonderful team of British nannies.

If you’re a parent who could do with your own share of care and attention, the unique collection of boutique Simpson Hotels offer generous hospitality with a genuine smile, spa facilities and spectacular locations. In the case of the charming GK Beach Hotel in Crete, that means being right on the beach!

Alternatively consider the magical The Rou Estate – a converted hamlet of immaculately finished villas. In addition to the on-site concierge service and restaurant for dinners, you’ll also have breathtaking sea views and Corfu’s sophisticated northeast coast nearby.

However, if you’d prefer the independence of your own private villa, you’ll find plenty of child-friendly features there too, from gated pools and lovely lawned gardens to cots and high chairs. The selection includes villas with gated pools in Mallorca.

It’s these consistently high standards that take the risk factor out of choosing a holiday, wherever you stay, and the excellent service that keeps stress to a minimum – because family time is far more fun when everyone has had a break!
