The Easter bank holiday is fast-approaching and millions of Brits will be planning out their holidays, most of which will be within the UK’s borders.
New research from VisitEngland’s latest Trip Tracker survey shows that 3.4 million people will heading off for a well-earned break this Easter with three million choosing to stay in the UK instead of jetting off to Europe or further afield.
This attitude is set to provide a significant boost to the nation’s economy with VisitEngland expecting around £700 million to be spent by tourists in England alone over this period.
James Berrersford, VisitEngland chief executive, said: “Easter is a fantastic time of year to spend a short break or day out with the family exploring the wonderful destinations in England.”
Easter is also the perfect opportunity for caravanners to make that first trip of the year after the long winter.
As numerous sites will have a range of activities going on during the bank holiday, it is the perfect excuse to get away.
