Book a Premium view on a Premium Park

With an increasing number of families choosing the ‘staycation’ option Haven Holidays have enhanced their ‘top of the range’ product with the launch of a new exclusive service aimed specifically at people booking their premium Prestige and Platinum grade holiday homes at Devon Cliffs – the company’s flagship park in the South West.

‘Devon Cliffs Select’ allows you to choose exactly where you’d like to stay on the park and shows just what your holiday home will include before you book.
The web-based service www.devoncliffs-select.com gives walk-through images of each holiday home and even shows the view you can enjoy as well as pin-pointing the exact location on a map of the Park.

And it’s not just about choosing the holiday home that suits you best with a guaranteed location – booking a caravan through this service also offers an earlier, assisted check-in with someone to show you to your holiday home; a twice-weekly maid service and luxury towels as well as beds made up ready for your arrival.

Haven say, ‘We’ve combined many of the pleasures of staying in a hotel, such as someone cleaning your room and making your bed with the sheer good value for money comfort and flexibility of self-catered accommodation. Our Select holiday homes are more like a stylish apartment than a caravan – yet still have all the benefits of the facilities on park and the proximity to the beach.’

Devon Cliffs resort boasts five stars, fabulous coastal views, direct access to a gorgeous sandy beach and first class family facilities. It also offers guests a huge indoor and outdoor swimming pool complex with slides and flumes, Adventure Golf, a climbing wall, multi-sports courts and a range of activities that includes football coaching, archery, fencing and kids clubs as well as daytime and evening entertainment.

There’s also a superb spa with a choice of health and beauty treatments on offer, glorious walking along the South West Coast Path and many visitor attractions throughout Devon within each reach.

A week in Spring in a premium holiday home at Devon Cliffs start at around £379 for seven nights for a family of up to six people. For more information and bookings click on www.devoncliffs- select.com

Note to editor: This service is currently only available to customers booking 7 night holidays.
