GREAT IDEAS FOR GREAT VALUE UK HOLIDAYS

With those words “credit” and “crunch” still looming large, it seems most of us will be keeping a close guard on the purse strings this summer. Instead of taking holidays abroad, it is thought that an increasing number of us will choose instead to take a “staycation” here in the UK, using our homes as a base for day trips and short breaks.

We are lucky to have a brilliant choice of famous tourist and holiday locations across the country, so the dilemma could well be where to choose! To help make the best decision, Bakers Holidays have put together a “Bakers’ Dozen” of their favourite staycation trips.

There are trips to suit all ages, interests and pockets, including visits to a number of top theatre shows in London and Manchester such as Sister Act and The Sound of Music. There is even a trip to the Cosford Airshow for those who like their entertainment jet-powered!

Short breaks are also covered, with many areas of the country visited. For instance, you could take a trip to the peaceful Cotswolds or the historic city of York. Then there is the option to visit one of the UK’s famous seaside resorts such as Blackpool, Scarborough and Torquay. These all include accommodation at top hotels so a relaxing and enjoyable break is guaranteed.

The other great locations in the list are Whitby, Southport, Chester, Llandudno, Eastbourne and the Isle of Man.
