THE GROWING POPULARITY OF SHORT BREAK STAYCATIONS
There’s never been a better time to invest in a Cornish bolthole or luxury home, whether it be for your own use or as a holiday let investment. Post-COVID, the staycation is the way to holiday safely and Newquay’s foundations continue to gain not only from all the national acclaim, but also the fortuitous British trend of more frequent, style-driven shorter breaks, at home. More than ever-before, holidaymakers are seeking luxury-end self catering properties as opposed to hotel room stays, given that (on average) they offer 30% more space, more privacy, more freedom and are more cost- effective in terms of there being no extra hidden costs.
The evidence of UK-based self-catering popularity lies in occupancy rates: self-catering accommodation in the UK averaged an 81% occupancy rate in 2019, and outperformed hotel rooms which stood at 77.2%. And that was all before COVID even became a word that we all understood. The days are long gone when Cornwall’s popularity is just limited to summer visitors. It is now a compelling, and lucrative, year round destination offering the most chilled of getaways and activities, spa treatments, wining and dining, and all aspects of the beguiling laidback Cornish lifestyle 365 days a year.
