Daish’s Holidays sees increase in solo breaks for Christmas

Sunday, 23 Nov, 2023 0

UK coach holiday group Daish’s Holidays has seen increased demand in solo holidays with an almost 15% year-on-year rise in bookings during the Christmas period.

According to research by Age UK, almost 1.5 million over-65s say that they usually feel lonelier at Christmas.

Daish’s Holidays operates 12 UK hotels, with 11 located in traditional British seaside locations.

The boost in bookings for its coach or self-drive breaks backs Age UK’s research.

Paul Harper, commercial director, said: “We’re pleased to see that solo travellers are choosing to spend Christmas with us.”

“It’s incredibly fulfilling to provide a welcoming space for people seeking companionship and festive cheer.”

Daish’s traditional holiday breaks include a full schedule of activities, full-board dining options, day tour excursions and evening entertainment.

Daish’s Holidays is making a further 20 single rooms available across its hotels for breaks taken between 29 December to 2 January to accommodate demand for solo New Year breaks.
