Mow more than 40 years old, Canvas Holidays offers uniquely tailored trips to campsites across Europe. The company's key selling point is flexibility. Customers get a free off-peak ferry ticket from Dover to the port of Calais in France as part of a holiday package, but can choose different crossings or flying as alternatives. Discount vouchers issued by Canvas Holidays include reductions on ferry crossings.
Canvas Holidays offers a range of campsites in France, Italy, Spain, Germany, Holland, Switzerland, Slovenia and Croatia, allowing customers to configure their own holiday. The number of days stay, overnight stops, number of sites that make up the itinerary and a host of other options from car hire to insurance can all be tailored individually. Booking last minute with a Canvas Holidays discount voucher can help secure large discounts of up to 45 per cent on holidays.
Canvas Holidays offers about 90 different sites to choose from, all of which include leisure facilities, usually a swimming pool, barbeque areas and games rooms. Accommodation ranges from large tents to mobile homes and luxury lodges; all are self-catering. All sites feature English-speaking staff.
The Guardian and Observer newspapers have regularly ranked Canvas Holidays as the leading camping holiday company in recent years. Short breaks can be booked too, some of which are also subject to reductions with a discount voucher.
