A British couple who won £7.7 million on the Lotto are enjoying a holiday to celebrate their win.

However, the Sun has revealed that Ivan and Sue Westbury are taking their first break as millionaires in a caravan park.

The couple have travelled to Cornwall, where they are enjoying a staycation thanks to an offer in the newspaper that meant they could stay for just £9.50 at the caravan park.

Mr Westbury is a 64-year-old lightning conductor factory owner, who has not missed a day of work since his big win and still drives a five-year-old Astra, which has clocked up 100,000 miles.

“We’d booked the holiday before the win and I always said we’d go on it,” he told the Sun.

“It’s our fourth £9.50 and we love them because the accommodation is good, clean and in good locations – and you can’t question the value.”

The millionaire explained that being able to bring his dog was a big plus, while each break they have enjoyed at camp sites has been “great fun and relaxing”.

Cornwall is a favourite destination for surfers and sailors, who enjoy the wonders of the Cornish coast.
