The Holiday Village Difference

To say Holiday Villages are a cut above the average family hotel is like saying Jamie Oliver’s not bad in the kitchen. It doesn’t even begin to cover it. Here’s some of the stuff that puts us in a different league…

Wet & Wild

Pool Assault Course

Twin Tracks is the latest addition to our wacky water inflatables and perfect for ages 6 and up. It’s an inflatable assault course for the pool that two people can tackle at the same time.

Waterwalkerz

Ages 5 and over can run on water in these huge inflatable balls. Or ‘human hamster wheels’, as we like to call them.

Water Rollers

Race your mates on the pool’s surface in these inflatable tubes - aimed at energetic over 6s. If you like these, you’ll love our ‘water wacky races’, too.

Canoeing

Ages 6 and up can take to the pool in our inflatable canoes for games, races and general water-themed frivolity. We’ve got peddle boats and bumper boats designed for little people under 6, too.

Outdoor Adventures

High Rope Adventures

All Holiday Villages have a different assault course, where we rig you up in a harness and you’re free to swing, climb and walk across all types of routes. Some height restrictions apply, but they’re generally open to everyone over 6, even mums and dads - so no chickening out.

Aeroball

When we say we’ve got every type of sport going, we’re not kidding. We’ve even got aeroball. That’s basketball on a trampoline, in case you’re wondering.

Archery

From Katniss Everdeen in the Hunger Games to Hawkeye in the Avengers, being nifty with a bow and arrow has never been cooler. Ages 6 and up can perfect their skills at our expert-led archery sessions.

Sports & Activities

Rounders, football, crazy golf – you name it, we’ve got it. Plus, there are circus workshops, treasure hunts and raft-building challenges. This lot's aimed at all ages.

Evening Entertainment

Family Entertainment

Evening entertainment is run by our team of professional UK entertainers, and all comes under the ‘HV Live’ banner. Expect kids’ discos, Saturday morning TV-style game shows, competitions, and professional shows 7 days a week.

Widget World

Ready to meet Gizmo, Doobley and Whatsit in the land of Whatchamacallit? The Widgets are 100% exclusive to First Choice. You’ll see them at our live shows, meet and greets, and around the hotels.

Nightly Live Shows

From the power rock classics of Anthem Legends to the TV-inspired HV’s Got Talent, we’ve got more live shows and cabaret sets than you can shake a mic at – and there’s a different one showing every night.

LED Stage Backdrops

All our stages are backed by state-of-the-art interactive digital screens, which take the entertainment experience to a whole new level. They’re also the stars of the HView cinema sessions, where you can catch screenings of hit family films.

Theme Days

Splashathons

Holiday Villages host Splashathons on selected dates over the summer, where tots, kids and grown-ups can all sign up for pool-based activities and challenges in aid of the fantastic UK baby charity, Tommy’s. Kids’ TV favourite Peppa Pig is a huge fan – she’s been supporting the charity since 2006 – so we theme some of the antics around her.

Family Theme Days

We’ve done everything from an Olympics-themed Sports Day, to a Pirate Day that Jack Sparrow would have been proud of. This summer we’re getting out the giant Twister out for Retro day and we’re planning a great Reality TV day, too.

From Tots To Teens

Holiday Villages go all out when it comes to keeping younger guests entertained. Cut-above kids’ clubs, expert-run academies and dedicated stuff for teenagers – it’s all part of the deal. Plus, we work to UK standards when it comes to childcare, so peace of mind comes as standard.

First Choice Kids' Clubs

3 to 5-year-olds

Games, painting, storytelling – it’s all in store at Little Stars. We’ve got loads of new ideas, plus a bunch of kids’ favourites they know and love. We also run Play And Learn sessions that tie in with the National Curriculum, with fun things like Wild West-themed games.

6 to 8-year-olds

We line up loads of fun games and activities at this one. Most of it is exclusive to Super Stars, so your kids get to try lots of new things like mini fencing. As for our Play and Learn sessions, they take children on a Pirate Adventure or Mini Beast Safari.

Bigger Luggage

You can check in up to 20kg of luggage and carry up to 7kg on the plane.
