Center Parcs, located in Sherwood Forest, scooped two awards at the British Travel Awards 2024 on Tuesday night (19 November) – gold for Best Company for UK Family Holidays and silver for Best Company for UK Short Breaks.
The awards, which were held at Battersea Evolution in London, were attended by prestigious travel companies and recognised the best small, medium and large businesses within the sector through public consumer vote.
As well as this, Center Parcs’ other accolades include its Aqua Sana Forest Spa being crowned ‘Employer of the Year’ at the Professional Beauty UK Awards earlier this year and more recently Longford Forest was named ‘Spa of the Year’ at the Ireland awards.
Center Parcs welcomes around 2.3 million guests every year, across its six UK and Ireland villages, with an average annual occupancy of 97% and a 65% return rate. The company remains open all year round, with summer and Winter Wonderland breaks being the most popular time to visit – with 95% of guests rating their breaks as excellent or good.
Colin Whaley, Chief Sales and Marketing Officer at Center Parcs, said:
“To receive not one but two awards, within the travel industry, is extremely rewarding and reflective of the hard work our colleagues do across both our villages and Head Office.
“As a business we are committed to helping families come together and create their own memorable family experiences, on a short break with us. To be recognised for this – among so many great businesses – demonstrates how important our customer service, standards and guest satisfaction is to us. I’m extremely proud of all our achievements, to create such an incredible place to stay and work.”
