The Great Staycation

While trips abroad aren’t expected to be an option for a while, holiday parks will be opening their doors very soon – and here at Park Holidays UK, we’re looking forward to welcoming you for your staycation in the UK.

We have a huge range of lodges and caravans across a wide selection of coastal and countryside holiday park across the UK, so there are plenty of options to choose from. Whether you want to enjoy a break beside the sea or head to idyllic secluded woodland, you're sure to find your prefect break with Park Holidays UK.

What is a staycation?

But what is a staycation exactly? If this is the first time you’ve considered a domestic holiday, allow us to show you all that a break here in Britain has to offer.

As the name suggests, a staycation is a holiday closer to home. This doesn’t have to mean you spend the time in your house, however. It can mean that you book a trip somewhere in the country you live in, giving you a home-from-home experience while offering a break from the norm in a stunning location.

While a trip abroad has its charms, you don’t have to hop on a plane to create those holiday vibes. There are lots of beautiful beaches and rolling green countryside to explore right here. You can visit local towns and take day trips to cosmopolitan cities, and all without ever leaving the UK.

Why choose Park Holidays UK for my staycation?

When you choose to spend your first getaway after lockdown with us, you’ll be able to experience all the fun of a staycation in some of the most captivating parts of the country. We’re specialists at providing the backdrop for some magical memories, with parks in seven counties in the south.

Choose from Cornwall, Devon, Dorset and Hampshire, as well as Suffolk, Sussex, Kent and Essex. This variety means you can choose the location that best fits your dream getaway in the UK.
