Guy Hobbs, editor of Which? Travel said: “The UK has an incredible variety of holiday parks and resorts.
“Holidaymakers can choose from those bursting with slides, swimming pools and activities for kids, or opt for a luxury stay in a safari lodge with hot tub.
“Our survey saw smaller, family-run resorts triumph over the biggest names, so there is no need to go for the most expensive option to have a great experience.”
