2009 just might prove to be the year of the 'staycation'; the economic climate combined with a growing environmental awareness could result in families eschewing their flights and holidays abroad and replacing them with a family seaside break closer to home. The central message of the VisitWales
'Holidays Unpackaged' campaign is that holidays are changing, and more people are waking up to the fact that holidays in Wales can offer a real alternative to the formulaic packaged holiday.
Preseli Venture’s new
family adventure holiday offers five days of discovery, fun, and exploration on the Pembrokeshire coastline. Family groups stay at the VisitWales graded
5 star eco lodge, enjoy healthy home cooked and locally sourced food, and get the chance to experience adventure activities including
coasteering,
sea kayaking,
surfing, and biking.
Active time is balanced with the chance for families to explore the Pembrokeshire National Park coastline at their own pace; local sandy beaches provide the perfect location for chilled out family time – from beachcombing and rockpooling to safe swimming and unspoilt tranquillity. Local attractions include dolphin spotting
boat trips around offshore islands, fishing trips,
horse riding on sandy beaches, through to bat detecting and badger watching!
According to the Preseli Venture team the family adventure break gives families the chance to get more active together;
‘There is so much in the media about the need for families to
move more and eat better; this is a great opportunity to take some exercise in an amazing environment. At home kids might spend a lot of time in front of their playstation or wii – this holiday will give the whole family the chance to get close to nature, have a great workout in the wild, and it’s pretty much the perfect way to renew and refresh family bonds and experience some quality family time’ says Claire Carlile, Preseli Venture's marketing manager.
