Half Term: Top 5 UK destinations to visit in February

February half term can provide a much needed chance to enjoy some time with the kids and take a short break from the everyday school routine. Many people fail to seize full advantage of the week long break, thinking the cold and rainy February weather in the UK eliminates the chance to enjoy a trip anywhere, but in fact, there are many UK destinations that provide the perfect setting for a fun half-term break!

With our minibus and coastal runs coach hire service here at Wyatt Coaches, travelling to your half term holiday destination has never been easier – so we’ve listed some of our top 5 UK locations to visit in February below.

Pembrokeshire

Home of the UK’s only coastal national park, and one of the sunniest places in Britain year round, Pembrokeshire provides stunning scenery with a huge range of activities for everyone to get involved in over the February half-term. The stunning beaches can be enjoyed come rain or shine, with plenty of alternative wet weather options should the typical British weather prevail.

Devon

Devon’s stunning Woolacombe beach is to be enjoyed at any time of the year, and even better, February will mean less crowds and more space for the kids to run around and enjoy the sea air! With many seaside resorts open year round, taking your kids to Devon for even a long weekend will offer plenty of activities for all the family, with picturesque scenery, Devonshire cream teas, and the fresh sea air all to enjoy.

London

London frequently features on our destination lists, and for good reason. No matter what time of year it is, there is always an abundance of activities on offer in the UK’s capital, providing entertainment to children and parents alike. For a few ideas, you could celebrate Pancake Day in style at a creperie or pancake restaurant, or you can also join in the Chinese New Year festivities – providing the largest celebrations outside of Asia!

Yorkshire

The cold of North Yorkshire in February is far outweighed by the stunning scenery and nature walks on offer for the family. Wrap up warm to enjoy the frosty countryside, and warm up in one of Yorkshire’s many countryside cafes with hot tea and delicious treats on offer.

Cornwall

Cornwall is a classic UK family holiday favourite all year round, providing the perfect backdrop to a much needed break away from the routine. Enjoy less crowded beaches, discount surf lessons, rock pooling and any of the several family-friendly attractions on offer for an action packed trip. Don’t forget to indulge in some of the famous Cornwall treats, too – most coastal cafes offer cream teas, pasties and traditional Cornish ice cream that is not to be missed!
