Overview
The AGC Association has three Holiday Homes situated in Haven Holiday Parks and are available to book for one week, per member, per season. Located in two exclusive sites in Exmouth and Cumbria, the Holiday Homes are for all of our members benefit, Regular, Reserve, and Veteran, whether it be for a family getaway, respite and welfare, or for team cohesion events.
With dates running from the start of March and until the end of October, they are a perfect getaway at a highly subsidised price, and with the Haven Ownership Benefits cards, you will be able to take advantage of the many discounts that are on offer across the sites.
Three beautiful getaways in the UK, where you can create lasting memories with your family. Whether you choose Devon or The Lake District, you will not be disappointed. During your stay you and your guests will have access to 'Owners' privilege cards which offer discount of up to 50% across activities and food.
All the homes have 3 bedrooms and sleep up to 6 people. They are fully furnished with central heating and include a fully equipped kitchen with gas cooker, fridge/freezer, microwave, hot and cold running water, bathroom with WC and shower and a separate WC. The lodges also have an en suite shower in the main bedroom. All the homes have an outside decking space on two sides with patio doors leading out onto it.
For season 2024, the Trustees have revised the weekly cost of the Holiday Homes to allow greater benefit to our members at a greatly reduced cost.
The full details of the individual Holiday Homes can be found at the links below this article.
