The festive period is a special time of year; it is during this time that you truly get to spend quality time with your family and friends, enjoying yourselves. But, it can also be one of the busiest times of the year, with the organisation of get-togethers, delicious meals to be cooked and presents to buy and share; the time can quickly pass! Why not take the pressure off the hosts and hostesses this year and do something a little different to what you’re all used to? A family staycation may be the perfect answer, and with so many beautiful locations in the UK, you’re spoilt for choice!
Our holiday parks stay open over the winter months, and there is a variety of exciting and fun festive-themed activities that take place, to keep you and your family well-entertained during your visit. Here are just a handful of the festivities taking place.
Suffolk is great for those of you who are in search of idyllic villages and picturesque country pubs. We wouldn’t expect any less from the home of the UK’s largest beer producers, Adnams and Greene King. There is an abundance of quintessential English taverns, where you can tuck into some farm to folk foods and locally brewed drinks. Spend the day by the open fires, listening to live music or relaxing with a good book as you and your family enjoy some down-time together.
