Top 5 reasons to choose Haven for your festive break

Join us for a 3, 4 or 7-night festive break and look forward to themed activities for the kids, endless entertainment and festive food and drink.

Our Haven breaks are available throughout December and include your choice of self-catering caravan or lodge. You'll have access to our fabulous facilities including our incredible swimming pool, The Shore Water Park, the Marina Stage and Bar to watch a whole host of live entertainment, delicious dishes available to buy from The Coast House, Burger King and Papa Johns, plus lots of fun in our amusement arcade. You'll also have access to book a range of free and paid-for festive activities including a special Santa Experience (subject to availability and an additional charge).

Join us for a Christmas break between 22-27 December 2023, or a New Year break between 29 December 2023 - 2 January 2024.

Festive family getaways between 1-21 December can be booked as the full Haven package, or as a Hideaway break if you're just looking for a base and access to restaurants. Breaks over Christmas and New Year will be for the full Haven package only.

Over the entire festive period, you'll find multiple foodie options under one roof at The Coast House, so no more arguing over what cuisine to plump for – all bases are covered, keeping even the fussiest eaters happy. Pre-book your tables via haven.com/experience.

Our spacious and comfortable booths can cater for large groups in our stylish restaurant, and the kids can even work up an appetite in the soft play area while you wait for dinner to arrive.
