Family time on holidays ‘is important’

Holidays are an important way of spending time with your family and friends, it has been suggested.

Whether caravanning in the UK or jetting off abroad, Brits should value the chance to get away with their partners, children or parents, according to holidaylettings.co.uk.

The firm claimed that quality family time is becoming a rare commodity due to the fast-paced life most people live nowadays.

A large proportion (65 per cent) of Brits believe that a holiday is the most important thing that they spend their disposable income on.

Holidaylettings.co.uk head of communication Kate Stinchcombe-Gillies added that travel websites now help families research and book budget breaks.

“As a reflective of the sensitivity surrounding cash and the economy, most travel sites enable people to refine their holiday search by budget,” she said.

Meanwhile, caravan owners could be tempted to head to the continent after the Post Office Travel Money Monitor reported favourable exchange rates for Brits heading to the eurozone and eastern Europe.
