Turn Your Property Into Guaranteed Income
We lease large homes and estates on a long term basis, providing consistent income while removing the operational and financial burden of running the property.
Retain the Asset. Remove the Burden.

Large Properties Come With Ongoing Cost and Complexity
Owning a substantial home or estate is a privilege, offering space for families to gather, celebrate, and create lasting memories. However, exceptional properties also come with significant financial and operational responsibilities.
When a property is underused, the cost of maintenance, staffing, and ongoing upkeep can quickly outweigh the enjoyment it provides.
Whether you're looking to generate guaranteed income through a long term lease or maximise your property's earning potential through a managed partnership, Group Retreats offers a structured solution tailored to your goals.
A Long Term Lease, Not a Management Agreement
We lease selected properties directly from owners on a commercial basis, taking full responsibility for operating the property as part of the Group Retreats collection.
This is not a listing service or agency model. We take on the day to day running of the property, manage bookings, maintain standards, and assume the operational responsibility.
For owners, this creates a clear, predictable income without the complexity of ongoing involvement.

Managing Large Homes Properly
Large country homes cannot be managed like ordinary holiday lets.
These properties require strategy.
They require experience.
They require the right guests.
At Group Retreats, we specialise exclusively in luxury accommodation for large groups. We manage and own properties ourselves, so we understand both the opportunity and the responsibility that comes with them.
We are not volume driven.
We are performance driven.

Key Benefits
Guaranteed Income
Receive a fixed agreed income regardless of occupancy levels, seasonal demand, or the performance of the Group Retreats business.
Long Term Occupation
Unlike short term tenancies, your property remains occupied under a long term lease, avoiding frequent void periods and tenant turnover.
Reduced Maintenance Costs
We undertake routine maintenance and day to day upkeep ourselves, helping reduce the ongoing cost and burden of managing a large property.
Professional Operator
Operating since 2017, we have a proven track record, long standing landlord relationships, and references available upon request.
Long Term Stability
Typically structured over 10 year agreements, providing predictable income and long term certainty for owners and family estates.
A Clear Division of Responsibility
We structure leases to ensure clarity and simplicity for both parties.
Group Retreats manages:
- Long term tenancies with guaranteed rent payments
- Routine maintenance, decor, servicing of plant and equipment
- Payment of buildings insurance
- Three months rent as security deposit
Owner retains responsibility for:
- External decor and upkeep
- Building structure, roof, window frames
- Replacement of 'end-of-life' plant and equipment (eg. boilers, sewerage systems)
Full details are discussed as part of the lease review.

The Properties We Lease
We work with a limited number of large homes and estates that are well suited to group stays and retreats.
Typically these properties:
- Accommodate 12 to 40 guests- Offer strong entertaining space
- Include features such as pools, hot tubs, or extensive grounds
- Are currently underused relative to their potential
We are selective to ensure the right fit for both the property and our guests.
