Family rooms

The Nare is a haven for families. Mere moments away are the safe, golden sands of Carne Beach. Closer still are the hotel's two heated swimming pools, tennis court and croquet lawn. And many rooms and suites can comfortably accommodate family groups, sporting extra bedrooms, or – at least – room for an additional bed for a child. 

Here, find a selection of suites that have, or can accommodate, additional beds. Alternatively, rooms for children can be provided next to their parents' room, where availability allows. Families travelling together who wish to discuss sleeping arrangements are encouraged to contact the reservations team online or at 01872 50 11 11.
