family holidays in India


Please find below a selection of our favourite properties in India that we believe are perfect for families. For more information about India and the full collection of properties we recommend see our India holidays 2012, 2013 page.

Most holidays in Northern India begin in Delhi with its teeming bazaars, battlemented Red Fort and the country's largest mosque; and New Delhi, whose elegant 1930s avenues and buildings reveal the enduring influence of the British Raj.

To the south-east, Agra is the setting of the renowned Taj Mahal. To the west, your India holiday can take in the vast deserts and rugged mountains of Rajasthan, whose customs, palaces and fortresses vividly reflect the classical image of popular India. Here, famous Jaipur, Udaipur and Jodhpur draw the India traveller.
