Choose a staycation for your vacation

Taking a break from the hustle and bustle of everyday life with a holiday is often a great source of excitement for many people. Thinking about your vacation is a great way to push through a heavy workload, and going away has become much easier with the ever-increasing popularity of the staycation.

Imagine travelling without feeling jet-lagged from the shift in time zone or burnt out from spending hours on a plane. Easy travel is a significant benefit of holidaying in your home country. These holidays are made even more hassle-free when you own a holiday home.

Holiday homes East Yorkshire: Burton Constable Holiday Park

As well as hosting beautiful luxury holiday homes in Yorkshire, Burton Constable Holiday Park offers access to 18th-century attractions. This includes lakes, an arboretum, and walled gardens. In addition to this, the holiday park has various amenities for holiday-goers’ convenience. 

The arboretum was initially commissioned by William Constable (1721-1791), who was inspired by the botanical gardens in Versailles, Hampton Court and the baroque splendours of Het Loo. The arboretum was recently rejuvenated to include new species of trees to combat plant damage due to global warming. The different plants are divided into avenues representing the rooms at Burton Constable Hall, and an interactive map shows visitors historical information about the rooms of the Hall and the tree which represents them.

The two lakes in the holiday park are currently being rejuvenated. The lakes were created from small fish ponds between 1769 and 1782 and are lined with Burton Constable bricks. Phase one of rejuvenation has already been completed, allowing fishing to return to the park. Ongoing efforts to restore the lakes bring excitement regarding the comeback of fishing competitions.

The Walled Gardens were designed and built during the Capability Brown interventions and are now a pleasure garden for holiday homeowners to visit and relax.

As well as having access to these historically rich attractions, holiday homeowners at this East Yorkshire-based park have numerous amenities at their disposal.
