Many holiday parks in the UK have slides and swimming pools. They may not compare to Europe’s top waterparks but they are still great.
There are also many family-friendly attractions in the parks.
In addition, many parks offer slides within their pools, just in case the weather turns too hot or – more commonly – if it starts to rain.
What are your best choices for summer?
