May Day breaks that won’t break the bank

Whether as a result of economic doom and gloom or an attempt to make their carbon footprints smaller, more people are booking British breaks this year. Haven Holidays reported an increase of more than 30,000 guests over the Easter Bank Holiday break compared to last year.

And demand is expected to be high for the next Bank Holiday break as well.

Haven say, ‘With 35 family holiday parks we offer a wide choice of UK destinations. At the moment we still have availability for the May Day Bank Holiday. But with prices from as little as £149 for a three night break for a family of up to six people we anticipate that many of our parks will book up quickly.’

Prices at Haven include a whole range of sports and activities, use of first class facilities and a full programme of daytime and evening entertainment. Facilities vary from park to park so check the website on www.haven.com for parks that offer golf, fishing, tennis, climbing, horse-riding and other activities as well as direct beach access.
