The news that UK self-catering holidays are officially back on from April 12 has of course led to an inevitable surge in bookings over the past few weeks. Several holiday rental companies announced record sales, and honeypot destinations such as Cornwall, Devon and the Lakes are fast selling out.
It is worth noting that some restrictions will remain after this date – restaurants and pubs will not be able to offer indoor service, for example, so you’ll need to rely on home cooking and beer gardens (weather permitting) – but this hasn t dampened the desire for that first dose of freedom.
