UK holiday break locations
All five of our UK locations have the same key features that make for a perfect short break: up to 400 acres of beautiful forest, a watersports lake and beach, the Subtropical Swimming Paradise water park, our Aqua Sana Forest Spa, and a range of restaurants, activities and accommodation types.
However, each village has its own distinctive character, with diverse landscapes, wildlife and special features to discover. Learn more about the unique features of each location below.
Whinfell Forest, Cumbria
Tucked away among the picturesque landscapes beside the Lake District, Whinfell Forest is a nature lover’s dream. Set amongst peaceful Caledonian pine woodland, you can catch a glimpse of rare red squirrels and the uncommon orchid, wander beside trickling streams and discover traditional, Scandinavian-style lodges - all around a striking lake centrepiece.
Sherwood Forest, Nottinghamshire
In the heart of one of the world’s most legendary forests is the original UK Center Parcs village and a traditional family favourite for many. Wander amongst majestic oaks and pines and stroll beside splashing water features in the leafy, open air Village Square. Discover the family-friendly Grand Cascade water ride at the Subtropical Swimming Paradise and the UK’s first Treetop Sauna at our Aqua Sana Forest Spa.
Longleat Forest, Wiltshire
Rolling hills, valleys and towering Giant Redwoods make for spectacular scenery and views at our Wiltshire village. Long by name and long by nature, this expansive, spaced-out village is ideal for active families and those who love the great outdoors. Explore on foot, on two wheels or simply soak up the sights from the comfort of the free land train if you’re tired after a busy day!
Elveden Forest, Suffolk
Nature-lovers and adrenaline junkies alike will adore Elveden Forest in the heart of rural Suffolk, with level, flat terrain ideal for exploring on two wheels. See beautiful and tiny Muntjac deer, whiz down the longest zip wire of all our villages, ride our award-winning, gravity-defying Tropical Cyclone – or simply enjoy the lake views from a striking Waterside Lodge.
Woburn Forest, Bedfordshire
Just an hour from London and set in 300 acres of gently sloping woodland, Woburn Forest is one of our newest villages. Offering the same features as our other villages within a more compact site, it’s ideal for little ones who get tired easily - or for guests who want to squeeze in as many activities as possible! Be spoilt for choice with the huge range of experiences in the Subtropical Swimming Paradise and Aqua Sana Forest Spa, and relax in secluded picnic areas and extra modern lodges.
