A recent survey by the Hilton Group found that 58 per cent of parents are eager to recreate their childhood holidays in 2025.
For many in the UK, this means returning to classic holiday parks, whether that is camping, caravanning, or opting for modern glamping.
With this trend in mind, the October half-term provides the perfect opportunity for a nostalgic getaway.
Dan Yates, founder of outdoor accommodation platform Pitchup.com, said: "Caravan holidays are a fantastic choice for families, offering the freedom of the great outdoors, space to explore, and precious time together without the usual distractions.
"They’re more flexible than traditional seven-night package deals and far more affordable, leaving room in the budget for a few extra treats!"
