Holiday in a Beautiful UK Leisure Park - is Renting a Holiday Home for You?

Joy Gregory
Are you looking for a different type of holiday this summer, for a main holiday or even a weekend break? Have you considered caravan or lodge rental in a park in the beautiful English countryside? Caravan vacations have come a long way since the days of a cramped caravan near the beach that was the summer holiday some of us still remember. Contemporary caravans are cozy and spacious with all the luxuries you could wish for in a holiday home, some have everything from SKY and flat screen TVs to freezers and washing machines and are situated in beautiful countryside, frequently by a river or lake. Alternatively, if you're looking for the ultimate in luxury and convenience you might want to look for a modern waterside lodge, these spacious holiday homes are just right for a larger group, giving you all the space you could want.

A caravan or luxury lodge in a countryside park rented for a weekend or longer will give you all the facilities you could want for a country get away. These caravans and lodges are generally fully equipped with contemporary kitchens, comfortable lounges, two or three bedrooms, frequently with ensuite bathroom in the main bedroom. You will often find a private deck with table and chairs, you might even be able to fish directly from the deck into a lake or river.

UK holiday parks contain plenty of leisure activities, ready for the holidaymaker, which could include, along with many others, bars and different types of entertainment, stores and facilities for fishing. These parks could be an option if you love touring the countryside but would like modern facilities and entertainment, there are often shops and launderettes on the parks, in addition to restaurants and takeways if you are looking for total rest and no cooking for a week. A most important part of relaxing and enjoying your vacation is the means to keep the children entertained so find a park with plenty of activities for children, possibly swimming, fishing, go-karting, train rides etc.

One such holiday park is Billing Aquadrome in Northampton. This is a sizeable park located in picturesque countryside with lakes and water channels throughout. In the summer you'll notice waterbirds and their offspring everywhere. You could fish in the lakes, ride around the biggest lake on a miniature train, have a go in a go-kart, play adventure golf and even 'walk on water' in a giant plastic bubble. You might want to swim in the indoor, heated pool in the new Leisure Complex and then have a meal on the deck looking out over the marina. In the summer events are held in the park, one of the most popular being the Balloon Festival and American Car Show at the end of August.
