Staycation ideas
Our guide to a fuss-free, full-of-fun holiday at home.
Rethinking your summer holiday?
Hopefully tourism will be back up and running soon, but in the meantime you might be reconsidering your summer plans. Luckily there are lots of beauty spots in the UK which can play host to glorious daytrips, at-home holidays and even some summer sun (fingers crossed!). Got a trip in mind? Find all your staycation essentials here.
Camping
Pack up and go anywhere you like! With the right kit, it’s easy to create a home from home amongst the wildlife.
Seaside
Do you like to be beside the seaside? If so, then pack your beach essentials and cruise to the coast for some paddling and fish and chips.
Daytrips
Sunny day forecast? Make the most of it with a picnic, bike ride or an explore of the countryside.
At home
Make the most of entertaining at home. Have a BBQ, throw a picnic party, or create a relaxing retreat and playground in your own glorious garden.
Be road trip ready
Are we there yet?
Reach your destination, pronto. Use a sat nav to find new places, emergency pit stops and routes to avoid traffic jams.
Under pressure
If you’re heading off on a staycation, then you’ve probably packed a boot-full. Check your vehicle handbook and adjust your tyre pressure to support the additional weight.
Stay charged
A flat or faulty battery is the number one callout for breakdown services in the UK. Use a charger to keep your battery topped up whilst you're away.
Travel entertainment
Keep boredom at bay during long journeys. Choose between in-car DVD players, portable game consoles and travel toys. Or why not make up your own games?
Let the fun begin
Bike rides
Get the whole gang kitted out and ready for a fun-filled biking adventure.
Board games
Be prepared for the unreliable British weather. Let’s face it – it could rain at any moment!
Suitcases
Staycations still call for suitcases – no weight restrictions here. Wahoo!
