New research from David Lloyd Clubs health and wellness group has found that half of UK parents are excited for the summer holidays and to enjoy more time in the garden, trips to the beach and picnics in the park. But parents admit that quite often the summer holidays don’t live up to dreams and expectations.
This is because of the tendency to fill every day with plans, meet up with too many people and spend precious time travelling back and forth between activities. A quarter of parents said they felt like their children were bored of seeing them by the end of the holidays, and over half said that they often feel they need a break to relax once the kids are back to school.
Every year David Lloyd Clubs runs Summer at the Club creating a premium resort-style atmosphere through an enhanced range of activities to keep the whole family entertained and relaxed under one roof all summer long.
Steph Holland, creative director at David Lloyd Clubs said : “We spend months dreaming about the perfect summer holiday with our families, but our research shows that in reality they can quite often not live up to our expectations as we find ourselves spending precious time off rushing around, entertaining our kids, and buying expensive tickets to days out at crowded theme parks or beaches. It also becomes especially hard when the typical wet British weather hits."
David Lloyd Clubs offers a three-month membership option, meaning that individuals and families can sign up for the summer holiday at www.davidlloyd.co.uk.
