Hoseasons stands up for UK family holidays

Hoseasons, the UK’s leading self catering operator, have been quick to challenge the views of a survey published in Mother & Baby magazine bemoaning the quality of UK holidays for families.

“We didn’t want the public to think that this survey, which suggests families are unhappy with the quality of UK breaks, reflected the full range of family holidays available,” said Hoseasons Chief Executive Richard Carrick: “This survey covered all elements of UK holidays, but the headlines have been grabbed by the negative view of families visiting hotels. We have to recognise that UK hotels only represent a small part of the UK family holiday market and ensure that stories like this don’t become a stick to beat the rest of the industry with.

“Self catering is the number one option for a great number of families taking a break in Great Britain. This is because the beauty of a self-catering holiday, whether on a park, cottage or boat, is the flexibility the break provides. The quality of self-catering accommodation in the UK holiday market has never been better and families have never had a greater range of breaks to choose from.

“We have found that more and more families are unwilling to spend hours in airports and want to discover what the UK has to offer. Over the last 10 years the quality of the experience has improved enormously with fantastic indoor and outdoor facilities at holiday parks, cottages with games rooms and even boats with DVD’s and Xbox’s.”

“At Hoseasons we have worked closely with our customers to respond to their requirements and have ensured that pricing structure, something people were concern about in survey, remains completely transparent. This is one of the many reasons why we believe that UK family self-catering holidays are as popular as ever. ”

Hoseasons Holidays has a range of family friendly parks, cottages and boats across the UK. For more information on any break visit Hoseasons.co.uk.
