NEWS RELEASE

ENJOY A MAGICAL FESTIVE SEASON WITH FOREST HOLIDAYS

New Year's Eve is often the last popular date on the festive social calendar. After a month of parties, many don't relish the idea of getting dressed up again and paying exorbitant prices for drinks, taxis and babysitters.

Why not escape the pressure of the forced jollity of the last night of the year in a log cabin deep in the forest with Forest Holidays? They are offering New Year Holiday Breaks in their luxury cabins, with under-floor heating, log burning stoves and hot tubs for as little as £46 per person, per night. Those booking now receive 7 nights for the price of 5.

New Year's resolutions are no big deal when you and the family can enjoy the proven health benefits of a forest holiday in one of nine picturesque locations around the UK, all on Forestry Commission land. The clean air and stunning scenery will help you reflect on the year gone by and prepare for the frenetic months to come, while bringing the family together for some quality time, away from the TV.

Forest Holidays have cabins in Deerpark in Cornwall, Blackwood Forest, Hampshire Forest of Dean, Gloucestershire, Thorpe Forest, Norfolk,Sherwood Forest, Nottinghamshire , Keldy and Cropton, North Yorkshire, Ardgarten in Argyll and Strathyre, Scotland, so there is bound to be one close enough to avoid the festive travel chaos.

If the idea of a break before Christmas sounds enticing, then you can take advantage of a special offer of up to £100 to spend in our Forest Retreats on items including food, drinks, treats and gifts. This is available for those planning a stay between November 2 and December 17.

Christmas 2015 is almost sold out, so those looking for a fairy tale setting for their celebrations should act fast. Forest Holidays is offering an added incentive of 7 nights for the price of 5. Just imagine the magic of a ramble in the woods after turkey and trimmings.

Don't worry, Santa will be able to find you!

If you have a canine member of the family you'd like to bring along, dog-friendly cabins are also available at all locations; just make sure to request one when you book.

The environment is at the heart of the Forest Holidays ethos and all the cabins have been designed to combine beauty with sustainability. The wooden exteriors sit harmoniously in their woodland surroundings and the panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows bring the outside in. All cabins also feature low-cost heating systems and gutters that allow water to flow back into the forest. Guests are also offered the opportunity to make a voluntary £2.50 donation, or more, to the Woodland Trust at the time of their booking, which allows Forest Holidays to plant a tree on their behalf, so that future generations can also enjoy the UK's woodland.
