• EUROCAMP RESEARCH REVEALS A RETURN TO FAMILIAR PLACES AND STRESS-FREE CHOICES FOR BRITS’ SUMMER HOLIDAY PLANS
• DEMAND ALREADY SOARING FOR POPULAR DESTINATIONS LIKE BRITTANY, PARIS, VENDEE AND THE NETHERLANDS

As holidays return to normal, it seems we’re returning to our old favourite places – with getaway nostalgia helping bookings to popular destinations rocket for summer 2022. According to holiday specialists Eurocamp, demand for much-loved and previously visited parcs is already high with one in two of all returning customers having rebooked a parc they’ve previously visited.  Close to home destinations and ferry-friendly locations have been proving the most popular too.

Fueled by the memories of happy holidays past, British travelers are choosing breaks they can get to easily – by ferry and car – and that don’t require them to venture too far.

Eurocamp reports that bookings to their parcs in Northern France – including historic Normandy and Brittany – are three times more popular compared to regions located further away. And reservations for parcs around cosmopolitan Paris, the beautiful coastal Vendée region and the Netherlands are up by the same amount too.

For those looking to secure a trip, there is still availability at selected parcs, with some great deals for May half-term and summer breaks.

In Brittany, La Grande Métairie parc is a great choice for families looking to enjoy some quality time together close to the coast. Set in beautiful woodland and boasting a fantastic pool complex with waterslides and amazing sports facilities, there is plenty to see and do.

Speaking about the trends, Eurocamp’s Marketing Director, Chris Hilton, says: “The recent ‘Hello Again’ campaign highlights that we have all been remembering those little moments that make foreign trips so memorable.
