Following works in bootstrap 4 and displays well in CSS, mobile and has no issues with label spacing.

CSS

.checkbox-lg .custom-control-label::before, 
.checkbox-lg .custom-control-label::after {
  top: .8rem;
  width: 1.55rem;
  height: 1.55rem;
}

.checkbox-lg .custom-control-label {
  padding-top: 13px;
  padding-left: 6px;
}


.checkbox-xl .custom-control-label::before, 
.checkbox-xl .custom-control-label::after {
  top: 1.2rem;
  width: 1.85rem;
  height: 1.85rem;
}

.checkbox-xl .custom-control-label {
  padding-top: 23px;
  padding-left: 10px;
}

HTML

<div class="custom-control custom-checkbox checkbox-lg">
      <input type="checkbox" class="custom-control-input" id="checkbox-3">
      <label class="custom-control-label" for="checkbox-3">Large checkbox</label>
    </div>

You can also make it extra large by declaring checkbox-xl

If anyone from BS team is reading this, it would be really good if you make this available right out of the box, I don't see anything for it in BS 5 either

It is possible to implement custom bootstrap checkbox for the most popular browsers nowadays   You can check my Bootstrap-Checkbox project in GitHub  which contains simple  less file  There is a good article in MDN describing some techniques  where the two major are    Label redirects a click event     Label can redirect a click event to its target if it has the for attribute like  in    lt label for  target id  gt Text lt  label gt   lt input id  target id  type  checkbox    gt   or if it contains input as in Bootstrap case   lt label gt  lt input type  checkbox    gt Text lt  label gt    It means that it is possible to place a label in one corner of the browser  click on it  and then the label will redirect click event to the checkbox located in other corner producing check uncheck action for the checkbox   We can hide original checkbox visually  but make it is still working and taking click event from the label  In the label itself we can emulate checkbox with a tag or pseudo-element  before  after  General non supported tag for old browsers  Some old browsers does not support several CSS features like selecting siblings p p or specific search input type checkbox   According to the MDN article browsers that support these features also support  root CSS selector  while others not  The  root selector just selects the root element of a document  which is html in a HTML page  Thus it is possible to use  root for a fallback to old browsers and original checkboxes   Final code snippet     x000D   x000D   root   x000D       larger checkbox    x000D    x000D   root
