Best parks for Father's Day

Cayton Bay beach

For adventure-loving dads

If Dad’s happiest when he’s on the move, our coastal parks are the ideal escape. Think clifftop walks, beach days and space to burn off energy together. Cayton Bay on the Yorkshire coast is a great pick for a seaside holiday with lots of chances for outdoor exploring.

For dads who love big beaches and bold days out, Trecco Bay in Wales delivers wide sands, coastal paths and classic seaside energy. It’s the kind of place where plans change on the fly – and that’s half the fun.

Family fun celebrations

Sometimes the best Father’s Day activities are the simplest ones. Splashing about, evening entertainment, early starts and lazy afternoons. Our parks are built for together time, whether that’s joining in with on park activities or making the most of nearby attractions.

Sandford in Dorset is just a short drive from the beach and the New Forest National Park, where endless coastline, nature trails and woodland adventures wait right on your doorstep.

We know that furry friends are part of the family. On our dog-friendly holidays, no one gets left behind.

Family playing on beach

Memories to make

Racing to the beach, shared laughs over fish and chips, or that one story that keeps getting better every year. A short break is one of those Father’s Day gifts that keeps on giving, long after the weekend ends.
