Here at Staycation Holidays, we’re rather smitten with all things English. So it comes as no surprise that we’re fans of English Tourism Week, a celebration of everything our country has to offer taking place from 5th – 13th March.
From wonderful local cuisine, to beautiful countryside and historic attractions, England is a fantastic holiday destination for everyone.
As a nation we take an average of three holidays per year and two of these are usually short breaks. So show your support for English Tourism Week and book at least one of them in the UK.
To entice you to holiday in England, we have a great selection of discounted stays available from now until 2017. Perfect for exploring this wonderful country, below are a few of our favourites, or for the full list follow this link.
