The mascot of a UK caravan park chain has made a special appearance at a London children's hospital.

Park Holidays UK's Loopy visited the kids of Great Ormond Street Hospital recently, after being invited by one of the company's holiday home owners.

Deb Ballenger's three-year-old grandson Tyler has been unwell and wanted to see his chum Loopy, so the friendly rabbit hopped to the capital at top speed.

He met Tyler and the other patients in his ward and shared news of everything going on at Park Holidays UK's 23 sites around the UK.

The kids also enjoyed playing games and learning songs with Loopy and Tyler was reportedly "over the moon" at seeing his holiday buddy.

Meanwhile, Park Holidays UK recently suggested that its caravan sites offer the perfect place for a new mother and baby to spend their first vacation together.

It explained that the lack of flight delays, hassle over passports and worries about foreign illnesses made a staycation a great idea.
