TAKING 5 TRAVEL WEBSITE

Taking 5 brings together holidays and outings with a particular focus on families of 5 or more.

Finding information about holidays or short breaks suitable for families larger than the standard 2 adults and 2 children can be a lengthy, disjointed and frustrating task. Taking5.com aims to simplify the process.

The website was created after Jane Batt, realised how her family’s travel options were diminished once they became a family of five. Taking 5 is a central information point for family holidaye, collating helpful travel information for larger and extended families, as well as the occasional child-free recommendation. Holiday reviews, tips and guide videos are shared with the aim of guiding larger families towards great holiday experiences.

Jane’s was a professional video producer for almost 20 years before going on to develop websites. She loves any excuse to get her hands on a camera, so watch this space for video reviews of her latest holiday recommendations!
