Hoverspeed ties up with Keycamp to target park sales
HOVERSPEED has linked up with camping and mobile-home specialist Keycamp to launch a short-breaks brochure targeted at the family theme-park market.The programme features Disneyland Paris, Parc Asterix, Phantasialand and Europa Park in Germany, and Duinrell Theme Park in Holland with accommodation based on nearby Keycamp campsites. It also features a site in Picardy near Boulogne for visits to Nausicca, one in Normandy 35 miles from Bayeux, plus one 14 miles outside Paris.
Prices in July start from £319 for seven nights in a tent for two adults and up to four children under 18 years old sharing a tent, including return mid-week ferry crossing on any of Hoverspeed’s routes. A three-night break in a mobile home in July costs from £494. The fast-ferry operator has crossings from Dover to Calais, Dover to Ostend, Folkestone to Boulogne, and Newhaven to Dieppe.
A Hoverspeed spokesman said theme parks, along with short breaks, are a growing sector, while the camps make it an ideal choice for families on a budget.
