Center Parcs - Europe
MissBehaving
Posts: 585 Forumite
Just thought that I would let you know that I have recently booked a week in August at Center Parcs in the Netherlands.
We are driving and so have had to pay for the cost of a ferry and will have to pay for fuel.
Total spend is £600.00 for Center Parcs and £100.00 ferry costs (paid for with Tesco Club Deals).
The same week at a Center Parcs in the UK would have cost us £1200.00.
May be worth looking at the European parcs if you are close to a ferry port!!

The only caveat I have is that some of the CenterParcs in the Netherlands allow smoking pretty much everywhere and it's pretty unpleasant.The man without a signature.0

this is something we are definitely considering for next yr
we enjoyed our stay @ Center parcs in the Uk, but we went during term time and had a code from here so it was a bargain price
We would never pay the ridiculous prices of the school holidays :eek: just dont think its worth that amount of money
the European ones have better facilities / activities apparently
and i guess it feels more like a holiday if you have to go "abroad" lol0 -
why centre parks, there are some great campsites in europe that have good clean accomadation with loads to do on site at a fraction of the cost0
