Never mind flight costs and faff – there’s an amazing holiday waiting for you far closer to home. Millions of British holiday makers are abandoning plans for foreign travel and embarking on "UKStaycations"
In recent years families' plans for trips abroad are being thwarted by an amalgamation of factors which travel experts say are causing record numbers to shun the traditional "week in the sun" for a holiday on home soil.
European holidays have escalated in price as the spending power of holiday money has been savaged by the falling value of the pound, which has dropped against the euro since Britain voted to leave the EU in 2016.
The term ‘UK Staycation’ comes with it’s own baggage. Often tarnished with outdated stereotypes of overly populated, stoney beaches, questionable gastronomy and infuriatingly unpredictable weather, it’s hardly surprising that many Brits have often fled abroad in pursuit of the perfect getaway.
It’s safe to say these once founded stereotypes are no longer befitting of a holiday at home. Whether you’re looking for a spontaneous city break or some respite from the stresses of the daily grind, there’s a lot to be said for the humble UKStaycation.
With No airport delays, currency exchange rates or language barriers to contend with – you can just jump in the car (or on the train) and let the adventure begin.
Where will your #ukstaycation take you.....
