A round up of the journeys we've taken this month
November 2011
Center Parcs began as a brand new holiday concept over 40 years ago in Holland. The very first village to open in the UK was Sherwood Park set in Sherwood Forest Nottinghamshire, which opened in 1987. Since then, there have been three further UK sites; Elveden Forest in Suffolk, Longleat Forest in Wiltshire and Whinfell Forest in Cumbria and the concept for each is to provide a forest environment with both outside and indoor areas allowing its customers to enjoy a holiday all year round.
Typically 400 acres in size, each village offers an extensive range of sports and leisure facilities plus many restaurants, bars and retail outlets. They have proved extremely popular and successful with many running at 95% occupancy.
One very important factor to the company is the sustainability policy achieved by increasing awareness of the climate change agenda to staff and guests. As well as family holidays and short breaks for couples or groups, the villages also provide conference and events facilities along with team building days for businesses.
So whatever reason may bring you to Center Parcs, be sure to call Aura Journeys Newark so you can arrive in the style and comfort of one of our fantastic cars.
