The James Collection represents a curated selection of handpicked lodges - properties chosen for their character, setting and quality. Early booking secures first pick of availability, with 2027 stays listed from £25. Pre-filtered for 3-night lodge breaks from late March 2027, this is a sensible option for those who like to plan ahead rather than settle for what's left. The collection is filtered specifically for lodges carrying the 'handpicked by James' designation, so the standard is consistent throughout. Booking early also means the widest choice of dates and locations before availability narrows.
Every property listed is quality-checked before it goes live - so the photographs and descriptions reflect reality rather than aspiration. As an ABTA member, all bookings carry the reassurance of recognised consumer protection. Pricing is transparent, genuine guest reviews are available on every listing, and a dedicated UK support team operates around the clock. For anyone who has been caught out by misleading accommodation listings elsewhere, this is a meaningful differentiator. The combination of pre-vetted properties, independent Trustpilot ratings and 24/7 support makes for a straightforward booking experience.
Pool days, evening hot tubs and the kind of quiet that only comes from a well-appointed lodge - the luxury collection offers this at prices starting from £19 per person, per night. These are handpicked lodges from the premium tier, pre-filtered for 3-night stays from December 2026 with up to 4 adults and 2 children. It's the sort of break that feels considerably more expensive than it is. The accommodation sits within the luxury collection, so standards are consistently high - think proper fixtures, private outdoor space and settings worth the journey.
Summer doesn't have to mean full price. Selected holiday park breaks for the late August bank holiday period are available with savings of up to 30%, covering splash-filled days and slower, warmer evenings at parks across the UK. The search is pre-filtered for 3-night stays from 28 August 2026, giving families and couples alike a solid late-summer option without the peak-week premium. With every property quality-checked before listing and transparent pricing throughout, what you see is exactly what you get.
A dedicated collection of weekend breaks makes it easy to find a 2 or 3-night stay at holiday parks and lodges across the UK without sifting through full-week inventory. Settings range from woodland lodges to coastal caravan parks - the kind of places where Friday evening feels genuinely different by Saturday morning. With flexible date searching and a price range that starts at accessible levels, a weekend away requires less planning than most people assume. The collection spans England, Scotland and Wales, covering everything from quiet countryside retreats to parks with pools and evening entertainment.
Glamping occupies a useful middle ground - closer to the countryside than a lodge resort, but with considerably more comfort than a tent. The glamping collection covers a range of structures and settings across the UK, from shepherd's huts and pods to more elaborate outdoor accommodations. For those who want the experience of sleeping under canvas without forgoing a decent bed or a morning coffee made in something resembling a kitchen, it's a practical and often scenic choice. Properties vary widely, so the collection rewards a browse rather than a quick filter search.
A well-organised collection of dog-friendly holiday parks and lodges means there is no need to leave anyone behind. Properties across England, Scotland and Wales welcome dogs, with a dedicated search filter making it straightforward to find accommodation that suits both the two-legged and four-legged members of the party. From lodges with private gardens to holiday parks near coastal walks, the selection spans a good range of settings. Every property is quality-checked before listing, so the 'dog-friendly' designation reflects actual facilities and policies rather than a blanket marketing term.
