Everyone loves a holiday, and it’s even better when it doesn’t break the bank. Family getaways can be expensive, especially when you factor in additional costs like travel, daily activities, and meals.

To help families save, Woolacombe Bay Holiday Parks compared the costs of popular holiday accommodations in North Devon. They analysed options for a family of four (two adults and two children) staying for a 3-night weekend break in May 2025. The research, based on January 2025 prices, revealed that Silver accommodation at Twitchen House Holiday Park offered the best value, costing less than three other popular caravan parks priced at £271, £179, and £257.

While holiday cottages and Airbnbs often cost more, staying in a caravan at a holiday park offers excellent value. Beyond accommodation, holiday parks provide access to a host of amenities like swimming pools, onsite activities, restaurants, and entertainment. Booking early for a weekend break not only ensures lower prices but also unlocks additional perks.


Why You Should Book Your Holiday Early

Booking your family holiday well in advance offers many benefits beyond affordability:

  • Greater Availability: Early booking means more options, allowing you to plan around your family’s busy schedule.
  • Time to Plan: With more time to research, you can organize fun activities, excursions, and dining options. For example, Woolacombe Bay Holiday Parks offers exciting activities like Segway safaris and foot golf to keep the whole family entertained.
  • Flexible Payment Options: Early bookings often include flexible payment plans, such as instalments or deposit schemes, making holidays more accessible for all budgets.
  • Support for Local Communities: Planning ahead can also benefit local economies, particularly in rural areas where tourism is a vital source of income.
