How this list is built

Lodges that publish a minimum age of 0, scored: 3 for a named children's programme, 2 for family rooms or villas, 2 for a published child rate, 1 for a pool, then sorted by all-in price for your group.

56 lodges qualify, with at most two per operator so one brand doesn't fill the list. Rankings use only facts shown on the lodge pages, with sources. Nothing is paid placement and nothing is based on reviews.
