Booking early can save you money for your next break
Everyone loves a holiday, and if it's easy on the bank balance, even better. Taking an entire family away can be costly, especially when you factor in additional costs such as travel, daily activities, and food.
Woolacombe Bay Holiday Parks were interested to see which of the popular holiday accommodation options in North Devon ended up being the most affordable for a family of 4 (2 adults and 2 children) to go on holiday for 3 nights over a weekend.
To find a fair comparison, all prices in the table below will be set for a weekend break over May 2025 and cover a variety of accommodation types. These include caravans at various holiday parks, along with an Airbnb and a local holiday cottage option.
Woolacombe Bay Holiday Parks comes out on top for the cheapest booking for Spring 2025
When looking at prices in January 2025 for a 3-night weekend break in May 2025, Woolacombe Bay Holiday Parks offers the most affordable option, with Silver accommodation at Twitchen House Holiday Park priced lower than three other popular caravan parks, which are benchmarked at £271, £179 and £257 respectively.
The data shows that naturally holiday cottages and Airbnbs typically are the more expensive choices over staying in a caravan at a holiday park and whilst the former are great for feeling independent, you get access to so much more value with a holiday park through onsite activities and entertainment, swimming pools and restaurants, and booking early for a weekend break means you can get an even better deal.
The benefits of booking your holiday early
As well as the more affordable price, there are many other benefits to planning your family holiday early. Some of these benefits can include:
- More availability: As well as the lower prices mentioned above, deciding to book early will mean there will be more availability to work around a family's busy life.
- Time to research: Having more time to research your holiday will help you plan fun activities, as well as restaurants and days out from your accommodation base. For instance, Woolacombe Bay Holiday Parks offers a great range of activities like Segway safari tours and foot golf that will be sure to keep you entertained.
- Flexible payment options: If you book early there will be greater opportunity for flexible payment options such as instalments and deposit payments, allowing holidays to become more affordable for everyone.
- Sustainable tourism: Booking early can also benefit local communities more, especially in more rural areas where tourism brings a substantial income.
