COVID 19 - We should be celebrating 20 years of themed holidays in 2020 yet due to Covid 19, government advice and our responsibility to safeguard our customers, we have cancelled all short breaks until spring 2021. We are working with our suppliers to be able to bring you an exciting programme of short breaks and holidays, some popular repeats and also new destinations and themes. Plenty of these will be in the UK for those that do not wish to travel too far afield.
