With research[1] showing that Christmas shopping can increase your heart rate by 33% and that overdoing the food and arguing over board games can have negative effects on our health[2], Luxury Family Hotels is offering the perfect antidote for all the Christmas stresses and excesses.
The Festive Recharger packages will provide the much-needed rest and relaxation after the craziness of Christmas and before the New Year celebrations begin.
At each of the hotels, parents will have the opportunity to chill out in sumptuous surroundings, enjoy delicious locally-sourced food and take advantage of relaxing spa treatments all in the knowledge that the children are being cared for in the Ofsted-registered Den or having plenty of fun in the games' room.
Flexible dining times mean that families can eat together or take advantage of the free baby listening service and enjoy a peaceful meal for two. With all baby equipment provided and seasonal activities aplenty, guests will certainly relish these Recharger breaks.
