A delightful British coach holiday to Newquay appealed to both a young girl and an elderly mother. Recent studies show a growing fondness among Brits for multi-generational travel, prompting a decision to experience this trend firsthand.
A family trio comprising a six-year-old, a mature mother, and a 40-something individual sought a getaway during school holidays. Opting for a Daish’s Holidays coach excursion to Newquay seemed ideal for their needs.
Despite initial reservations about coach travel, the group was pleasantly surprised upon boarding the modern and comfortable vehicle for the 320-mile journey. Fellow passengers, regulars on Daish’s Holidays trips, shared insights about the leisurely pace of the journey, including stopovers at service stations along the route.
Arriving at the Barrowfield Hotel near Newquay’s seafront, they were warmly welcomed by Frank, the hotel manager. The daughter’s excitement over receiving a ‘golden ticket’ and choosing a toy epitomized the thoughtful gestures extended to young guests.
The stay at the hotel included hearty meals served in the dining room, evening entertainment, and access to amenities like an indoor swimming pool. Exploring Newquay, they visited attractions such as the Blue Reef Aquarium and indulged in local cafes and shops.
An optional coach trip to St Ives provided a picturesque setting for enjoying a traditional cream tea and exploring the Tate St Ives gallery. Back in Newquay, the family savored moments by the beach and in the city center before bidding farewell to embark on their return journey.
The memorable holiday concluded with heartfelt appreciation expressed to the hotel staff, highlighting the success of the trip. The family pledged to make such coach breaks an annual tradition, considering Daish’s Holidays’ diverse UK destinations and inclusive packages.
Daish’s Holiday packages encompass luxurious coach travel, complimentary on-site parking, daily meals, and entertainment options. With prices starting from £179 for self-drive and £199 for coach travel, discounts and special offers make these experiences even more appealing.
