Center Parcs closes until 7 January
Center Parcs has closed its five UK parks today, until at least 7 January, following the government’s new restrictions.
The parks operator said on Twitter it was making the announcement ‘with a heavy heart’.
A statement on its website said: "We know how disappointed our guests will be, especially during this time of year. Again, we have not made this decision lightly, but we must put the safety of our guests and staff first and there is clearly concern around the new variant being moved around the country.
"All guests impacted by the closure period will receive an email from us today (20th December) with instructions on how to cancel activities and restaurant reservations and how to reschedule with a discount to the value of £100 or cancel with a full refund."
