About Us

Peace of Mind

Our multi-award winning approach gives parents with young children and babies peace of mind and a stress free family holiday experience – from start to finish. After my two year old son fell into an unenclosed swimming pool whilst on a family holiday in 2005 I became frustrated by the lack of safe, family friendly holiday accommodation.

So in April 2006 I set up Tots To Travel, a unique holiday lettings agency that started by asking the question...

"what really frustrates mums and dads when they are planning, booking and going on holiday?"

...and then seeking to find solutions. The result? I hope that you'll find that we are a company that goes to extreme lengths to give families exactly what they want from their holiday.

Family Focused

Our approach is entirely family focussed, starting with a team of mums who are trained (using a system developed with CAPT, the Child Accident Prevention Trust) to visit and approve holiday homes based on what you as parents really want from your holiday.

Here to Help

What's more we have a team of 'Holiday Heroes' who know all about travelling with tots, what questions to ask and which properties to recommend to suit your individual family's requirements.

Stress Free, Time Saving

That means a stress free, time saving holiday search service for busy parents, a smooth booking process and, once on holiday, beautiful, safe environments where families can enjoy relaxed, quality time together. That's my promise.

Award Winning Customer Service

And I delighted to say that we are creating waves within the travel industry and our success has been recognised with a cabinet of awards including the Cisco Customer Kings Award for outstanding customer service (March 2010).

  • From the horses mouth.....I liked the way you went straight to the property owner when I had a question about the property, found out the answer "from the horse's mouth" and got back to me extremely quickly.Only that we should have gone for 2 weeks instead of 1!   It is a shame that places are already booked up for next year, but that is understandable when the quality is so good. - Garrard Family - Sep 2010
