Who Are Haven Holidays?
Established in 1964, Haven Holidays were bought by the Bourne Leisure Group in 2000. Haven offers not only caravan holidays, but also the option to buy a caravan, or book a pitch for a camping or touring holiday.
A Haven Holiday can be taken all along the UK coastline – according to their website “most of our parks are only a 2 to 3 hour drive from your front door” – which is definitely appealing if you are travelling with young children, or you are only getting away for a quick weekend break.
Who Are Haven Holidays Best Suited For?
Families love Haven Holidays – not only are they located in some great destinations, they are also filled with such a wide range of activities, both day and night, that everyone will be entertained and find something fun to do.

What Is The Best Haven Park?
With so many holiday parks to choose from, 40 to be exact (at the time of writing), it’s hard to say which is the best Haven park.
The answer will likely come down to budget and personal holiday style.
What Is The Biggest Haven Holiday Park?
Devon Cliffs are the largest of the Haven Holiday parks. In fact, Devon Cliffs are one of the largest holiday parks in Europe!
Devon Cliffs are in the East Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. There are plenty of activities available, both onsite and locally.
Visit Sandy Bay, winner of the Blue Flag Beach award in 2019, test out your skills with a little bit of surfing or paddleboarding. If swimming in a pool is more your thing, there is plenty of fun to be had back onsite. Devon Cliffs have a multi-level outdoor pool as well as multi-lane water slides and flumes in their giant indoor pool.
Out of the water, there is plenty more to entertain the whole family – have some fun at the Adventure Golf course, experience a Segway ride or brave the dizzy heights from the Aerial Adventure course.
As you would expect from such a large and popular holiday park, there is plenty of on-site entertainment to enjoy, both during the day and in the evenings.

- Supermarkets – including a wide range of Co-op products, meal deals and Grocery Starter Packs available for pre-order.
- Activities – there are over 100 indoor and outdoor activities available across the Haven holiday parks, so far too many to list out here! When you’ve booked your caravan holiday, choose and book your activities on the Haven app too to avoid disappointment.

- Outdoor and indoor play areas
- Restaurants, cafes and bars

What Should I Bring On A Haven Holiday?
