A woman saved more than £600 by taking her family on a half-term trip to Center Parcs in EUROPE - instead of the UK.
Rebecca Kellett, 36, travelled with her family from Huddersfield in Yorkshire to De Vossemeren in Belgium and still saved an eye-watering £635 including travel costs.
The travel blogger and company director drove to Belgium - via the Eurotunnel - with her partner JP, 42, and his two kids where they enjoyed their half-term holiday.
Rebecca paid £445 for a week at Center Parcs in De Vossemeren and claims that the same week at Center Parcs Sherwood Forest in Nottingham was £1,699 - almost four times higher.
Including the costs of petrol and the Eurotunnel, £150 and £220 respectively, as well as £249 for three hotel nights to break up the journey, Rebecca claims the family still saved £635.
Rebecca also praised the reduced prices of activities where she said the aerial adventure in the Sherwood Center Parcs was £49 and £19 in Belgium.
