Caravan holidays in the UK were on the up in the days following the volcanic ash cloud situation.
Tony Clish, the director of Park Holidays UK, has noted that bookings at his company’s parks had grown by 15 per cent as flights were kept grounded because of the eruption of the Icelandic volcano.
Meanwhile, doubts about whether some airline staff will take part in industrial action is highlighted as another possible reason for a rise in the number of families wanting to holiday in the UK.
Mr Clish said: “People just aren’t prepared to gamble on their main leisure event of the year, and as a result we are seeing some summer weeks nearing capacity on our parks.
“For many families a UK holiday booked now is likely to be the least stressful way of spending the next few months before their break.”
Furthermore, Mr Clish feels that families would be best served to book their caravan holidays early in order to ensure they have the widest range of possible locations to select from.
Those wanting to enjoy a number of outdoor activities may find that a UK caravan holiday could prove enjoyable, Park Holidays UK has previously stated.
