Christmas Markets are perfect for family holidays

Posted by Linda Davidson


Owners of caravan accessories may want to travel to Europe this winter and take part in the growing trend for Christmas Markets.


Eric Hutchins, general manager of Holidays By Rail, said that the popularity of going to Christmas Markets abroad was growing, as many generations of the same family join in for festive fun.


He said that although these events have always been popular, now not only is the 'baby boomer' generation heading off to Europe for Christmas, but their adult children and their families are going too.


"The spectacle of decorated towns, snow covered streets, twinkling lights, and traditional delicious food brings out an unequalled festive spirit of camaraderie and bonhomie. Especially when travelling with one’s family," said Mr Hutchins.


However, if owners of caravan accessories do not want to go quite so far afield, they could also pay a visit to one of the many Christmas Markets across the UK, with huge events taking place in Leeds and Lincoln, to name a few.
