Press Release Summary: Continually rising oil prices and soaring airfares means late bookings for summer holidays abroad are out of the question for many families. Many people will be staying in the UK, abandoning their cars and heading off to beautiful UK destinations instead.
Press Release Body: To compensate for rising fuel prices, some airlines are adding fuel surcharges and even charges for window seats and checking in baggage. It's thought that this added cost for flying is deterring many people from travelling abroad this summer. This is why British holidays that get rid of the need to buy fuel are becoming a popular alternative.
Compass Holidays is one UK holiday company that is set to benefit from this trend. Compass offers walking and cycling breaks and holidays for families and groups of all sizes that eliminate the need to fill the car with petrol, let alone pay expensive airfares. These revitalising breaks can be taken in some of the country's most picturesque areas including, the Cotswolds, Bath, Wiltshire, Cornwall, Cumbria and Hampshire.
Steve Short, MD of Compass holidays says, "Rising oil prices means families have to pay a fortune to go abroad this year. People don't realise what beautiful and relaxing destinations we have right here in the UK that will cost far less than foreign holidays. Our holiday destinations are all easily reachable by train, so there's no need to even spend money on petrol. We'll even move luggage between hotels so guests can simply ride or walk to their next destination."
The finer details of the trip, from cycle hire to route maps are organised by Compass in advance, to ensure guests have a stress-free holiday. Whether guests want an easy-going route or something slightly more challenging, Compass will recommend the most suitable routes for guests.
