Hi!
There is no hard and fast rule. my usual estimate is to have around 20 to 30 GBP per person per day. But i make sure that my account balance is more than that. Also, if you think that the balance is not that much, just show lesser number of days in the application form -- let's say 10 days. you will always get a visa for 6 months. You need to maintain the balance for 3 months. Also, if your running income is enuf to support you family plus visitors @ 20 to 30 GBP per day per person, I think you need not to worry much about your bank balance.
Another important thing - if there are any major transactions though your account, do mention in the cover letter that from where that money has come. This is a very common reason for rejection. Let's say if its your pay, do mention it in the cover letter.
