Single Parent Holidays and Solo Holidays 2021

Latest Coronavirus / COVID-19 Travel Update [13-4-2021]

Group holidays for single parent families:

Are you a single parent tired of travelling alone with your children? Join other single mums and single dads and their kids by going on a single parent group holiday in the UK or abroad! Whether you are bereaved, separated, divorced, a solo parent by choice, or a grandparent – you will meet like-minded one parent families on our single parent holidays, which have been a great success for over 15 years now.

So don’t travel alone! Book one of our breaks and spend your holiday with other solo families at carefully selected family-friendly hotels, where you can relax and let us worry about the details. One of Single Parents on Holiday’s team members will be with the group throughout the week, organising every aspect of your single parent family holiday, so you can have a hassle-free time in the knowledge that everything is taken care of. You won’t feel out of place as everyone is a single mum or single dad. Most of our families are from the UK and Ireland, but we also have English speaking families from abroad joining us regularly. Just choose from our range of 4-star single parent beach breaks, activity holidays, farm stays and ski holidays and organise your own travel. Book your solo family trip with the leading tour operator in the UK for single parent holidays since 2005.

Group holidays for singles 40+:

Due to popular demand from parents whose children have grown up, we are now offering holidays for adults only, complementing our single with kids holidays. Our solo trips are ideal for singles, single parents whose kids are away or grown up and anyone whose partner can’t or won’t travel – there are many reasons why people seek company on holiday. If you think a group holiday might be for you, and you want to put your feet up and let others organise, then our solo holidays will be a great fit. Your Single Parents on Holiday host will be your tour guide and organise every aspect of your trip, allowing you to focus on discovering new destinations, enjoying adult company and recharging your batteries with other solo travellers in their 40s, 50s and 60s. Let us take care of everything else!

Our single parent family and solo holidays are financially protected. Find out more here: financial failure protection.

Single parent ski holidays 2021 / 2022:

If you have ever skied or snowboarded, you will know that it’s not much fun to be alone on the slopes whilst the kids are at ski school. With this in mind, we have designed a range of fabulous single parent ski holidays that run from October half term through to Easter. Whether you are a beginner or an advanced skier, we will make your single parent holiday as hassle free as possible by arranging your safe return transfer from the airport to the hotel, organising your lift passes, hire equipment and ski lessons. Naturally, our team members will stay with our group throughout the week. They will check that our single mums, dads and kids are happy with their lessons and offer ski guiding for the intermediate to advanced skiers, so everyone has company on and off the slopes. Our 4-star family hotels are either right by the piste or within a short shuttle distances from the slopes.

Solo holidays for singles / single parents without kids:

So, what do you do when the kids are staying with your ex, or have fled the nest? Whatever your situation, who doesn’t dream of a break away from the kids to recharge their batteries and enjoy some me-time at some point? We have created a select number of solo holidays for any singles or single parents who are able to travel solo, want a stress-free, fully organised break and don’t want to miss out on adult company on holiday. Check out our beach break in beautiful Croatia or join us on one of our solo ski trips in Austria.

Holiday Reviews

"We had a great holiday in Ramsau. There were lots of fun activities to do together – rafting, tandem flying, walking etc. We had some rain while we were there and Daniella, our group leader, juggled everything very efficiently so that we hardly noticed. Being in a group and having a helpful leader enabled us to do things that we wouldn’t have been able to do if I had taken the children on holiday on my own."
− Catherine, Rufus (10), Edmund (8) & Jasper (5) - single parent activity holiday in Ramsau, July 2015

"Thank you SPOH for the opportunity to go on holiday and meet like minded individuals and just have a stress free holiday. If anyone is doubting or worried about going I would say don’t think about it, do it. You won’t regret a second of it."
− Philippa & Lydia (11) - single parent farm holiday in Magredi, July 2019

"I took my 5 year old daughter on this trip and it was a sensational holiday for us both. The excursion to the souks was a real cultural experience - with snake charmers and handmade items galore. The vibrant colours and vivid designs were truly breathtaking. The local guide meant that we were not hassled too much and I’d recommend checking local prices to avoid being ripped off. I’d also take a buggy/stroller if your child isn’t great at walking longer distances. The weather was absolutely perfect varying between 25 and 29 degrees which meant that the children spent the majority of their time in the swimming pools. The Atlas Mountain excursion is well worth it. Overall an amazing holiday that we didn’t want to end! We managed to find a local camel ride which just topped everything off! You won’t regret going on this holiday."
− Sam & Annabelle (5) - single parent city trip in Marrakesh, February 2020

"A great holiday if you like walking combined with fabulous food and wine! The hotel was very child friendly and provided excellent food every day. The hotel manager Roberta and her staff could not do enough for us. The days out were long days and as it was over 30C I would imagine that young children would struggle with the walking needed. However we really enjoyed the trips and our guide Claudia made every effort to make our stay as interesting and pleasant as possible. My son really enjoyed the white water rafting while my favourite trip was to Azzizi. We had 2 days by the pool which were excellent as we were taken to see all the animals the hotel has and we also made pizza one evening under the expert eye of the hotel chef. All in all I would highly recommend this hotel."
− Jackie & James (10) - single parent holiday in Umbria, August 2016

"My son Fin, 8, and I thoroughly enjoyed our holiday in Alpendorf. The hotel facilities were great and activities were fun and interesting. Fin's highlights were the day spent swimming at the lake and the slides into the salt mine but he was equally happy enjoying himself around the hotel with his new band of pals. Our guide Thomas ensured everything ran smoothly. Thank you for a very fun week!"
− Lynn & Fin (8) - single parent activity holiday in Alpendorf, August 2019

"Very relaxing holiday in a well equipped hotel. Lovely pool. Sandra and Naomi always very helpful and so friendly. "
− Lisa, Millie (16) & Alfie (11)

"We had a brilliant time in Alpendorf! My daughter absolutely loved it and didn’t want to go home. The people we met were lovely and the activities excellent, particularly the white water rafting. Daniela was a brilliant host and we would most definitely go back!"
− Andrea & Holly (10) - single parent activity holiday in Alpendorf, August 2011

"Another brilliant week with SPOH. Lovely hotel, great friendly people and the perfect host in Jane."
− Guy & Grace (10) - single parent beach holiday in Halkidiki, August 2019

"We had the most amazing experience in Zillertal, and as first-time skiiers we were well looked after. The hotel and staff were definitely 4-star (at least)! Would recommend to everyone."
− Louise & Oliver (6) - single parent ski holiday in the Ziller Valley, March 2016

"SPoH know how to put a holiday together. They make sensible and wise choices regarding location, hotels and facilities. Sandra, our host, made every effort possible to ensure that each and everyone of our needs were catered for which is not easy. Unlike some companies which just meet and greet you in the morning and evening, SPoH stay with you helping you to find the best bits and get the most out of your holiday. It requires great skill, patience, judgement and careful handling to manage a group of unknowns especially on a ski slope but Sandra made it look easy. Thank you for a wonderful time. I look forward to travelling with you again."
− Chris - solo ski holiday in Schladming, March 2017
