Getting away and making memories that last a lifetime as a family is an essential part of the year. With everyone busy with responsibilities such as school and work, finding a week or two that you can block out and spend together is a must – and you need not pay over the odds to do so.
Here at Allens Caravans, we host luxury caravans and beautiful lodge parks nestled amidst stunning nature and tranquil scenery for you to relax and unwind. Whether you wish to visit for a short, lazy weekend getaway or a long, activity-packed family vacation, there is something for everyone to enjoy when on caravan holidays for families. Enjoy a perfect escape with the comfort of home, surrounded by breathtaking landscapes and endless opportunities for adventure.
Our caravan parks offer the perfect opportunity for you to explore the British countryside and surround yourself with beautiful scenery in a calm atmosphere. Just the break you need to get away from your busy life! Not only this, but the location of our park sites also makes them even more irresistible, from the ever-picturesque Cotswolds to the rugged cliffs and sandy beaches of the Welsh coast.
All our sites have an on-site clubhouse and bar. Bredon View in Worcestershire is aimed at those seeking a quieter, more self-contained getaway surrounded by nature, wildlife and a glorious landscape and includes its own golf course and river fishing, as well as the possibility of a hot tub right at your caravan. Our other four sites all have a café and restaurant, a venue for live entertainment, an on-site swimming pool and a children’s playground. Other facilities such as football pitches and tennis or basketball courts, a games room, and a soft play zone, are available at certain parks.

Caravan holidays have been gaining in popularity over recent years for several reasons. Firstly, they offer a sense of nostalgia and familiarity for half the family who will have grown up with staycations every summer instead of jetting off around the world – as is the norm these days.
Secondly, caravans are not what they used to be. Long gone are the days of cramped and confined living quarters and pull-out beds. Many of our caravan holiday lodgings are every bit as luxurious as the hotels you would find across the country – with double glazing, central heating, and comfortable beds!
Finally, there are luxury caravan holidays just a few hours away from home, eliminating the need for queuing at passport control and checking in hours before a flight.
Technology makes up such a significant part of life nowadays that it isn’t always easy to ask younger family members to unplug for a few hours, let alone a few days. The great thing about family holiday caravan parks in the UK is just how simple it is to ask the kids to stop for a while and appreciate what’s around them. Several of our parks have children’s play and activity areas, as well as swimming pools, so there are plenty of opportunities to tire them out the old-fashioned way!
The locations of our caravan holiday parks in the UK lend themselves extremely well to planning a fun-filled adventure holiday for younger family members. All our parks are nestled in gorgeous scenery, from the plush Cotswolds to the rolling hills of North Wales, so why not plan a nature walk? Set up a family challenge to find certain plants or count how many different types of wildlife they can spot; get creative! You can even turn it into a bit of friendly competition for lively siblings.
Without the distractions of everyday life, families can spend more quality time together, playing games, telling stories, and simply enjoying each other’s company. In the more intimate setting of a retirement caravan park, you’re presented with a unique opportunity to set up some bonding time.
Once again, the only limit is your imagination – so try a variety of activities, from classic campfire-style singsongs to the time-tested family ritual of board games. Disclaimer: We accept no responsibility for Monopoly-related disagreements!
There are many reasons why holidaymakers are looking a little closer to home for their annual getaways. Some are choosing to remain in the British Isles for financial reasons, simply not wanting to pay out for flights, hotels, and everything else that comes with travelling abroad. Others have had their eyes opened to the beauty that is sat right on their doorstep and the fact that you don’t need to travel far and wide to have quality time with the family. To opt in for the best caravan holidays for families, look no further!
While the average day in the United Kingdom may not have the same warm climate as more tropical locations, our British countryside is simply awe-inspiring. If you take a stroll through the Yorkshire Dales or the coast of Wales, you will have your breath taken away by the sights you will behold.
We have five holiday parks across England and Wales that are open for between 10 and 11 months of the year.
Sunbeach and Aber Bay holiday parks can be found in beautiful North and mid-Wales, while Abbot’s Salford and Bredon View holiday parks are situated in the heart of Worcestershire, which provides plenty of adventure for families staying on our sites.
You will also find Overstone Lakes Holiday Park in Sywell, Northamptonshire, amid rolling English countryside and in easy reach of much of the country. Whatever you are looking for, you will find a holiday park that offers everything you are after and more.
