With prices from as little as £179 for a family of six, a half term break on a Haven holiday park works out at less than £30 per person. Haven say, ‘If you’re a typical ‘Mum and Dad with two kids’ family – bring along the grandparents – the accommodation will still cost the same!’
If you haven’t tried a caravan holiday home – or last stayed in a caravan when the water had to be collected from a standpipe – expect to be surprised. Today’s caravans have come on a long way in terms of design and facilities. Expect contemporary styling, a comfortable lounge area with colour TV or DVD player, a well-equipped kitchen (easy to cook for six – or make use of Haven’s restaurants, cafe-bars or take-away options), two or three bedrooms, separate shower and loo. Many top of the range ‘Prestige’ holiday homes even include ensuite facilities. There’s more than enough space to share with the grandparents.
