With the recent launch of Sky’s new TV series, The Dyers’ Caravan Park, the spotlight is firmly on the classic British getaway. The show features TV legend Danny Dyer and his daughter Dani as they take on the challenge of running a holiday park, driven by a mission to “bring back” the Great British Holiday.

Their journey into the world of holiday parks has reminded the nation why there is something so special about a classic UK break—the sense of community, the nostalgia, and the simple joy of a seaside escape.

If the idea of a UK seaside breaks conjures thoughts of kiss me quick hats, tacky souvenirs, and days of endless rain cooped up in dated accommodation then think again.

At Cofton Holidays, we certainly share the Dyers’ passion for the unique charm of a UK break. However, we believe that the Great British Holiday hasn’t gone anywhere—it has simply evolved.
