subject: Top Reasons to Book a Christmas Break this Year [print this page] For many parents with grown-up children, Christmas can be a lonely time; especially when those children have flown the nest to raise their own families and may live many miles apart.
While there are some parents whose families and friends might not live too far away and so can receive invites to spend Christmas with them, others aren't so fortunate and will be in a situation where long-distance communication is their only contact with their family.
Of course, it is always nice to receive Christmas cards and presents through the post, and a phone call from the family to convey yuletide greetings but nothing can compare to actually seeing your family and spending Christmas day with the people you love.
However, many adults are now trying to inject some fun back into their yuletide celebrations by arranging short breaks away over the Christmas period in order to ensure they have the best Christmas possible.
Indeed, Christmas breaks are becoming ever more popular with adults, and the chance to spend time with their partner or even on their own as well as other like-minded people, can create fun times for all involved. There is also the chance to meet new friends that in years to come could become lasting friendships that span more than just a Christmas break away, and even carry into summer holidays and other short break holidays.
Plus, on a Christmas break, the domesticity of having to prepare the home for any occasional guests, and the preparation of the Christmas dinner with all the trimmings can be brushed aside as Christmas break providers take on the responsibility for the tasks at hand, leaving guests free to eat, drink and be merry; safe in the knowledge that everything is being taken care of, even down to the washing up afterwards.
From preparing and cooking the Christmas Day turkey or steak pie, to live entertainment on Christmas Day to beat those old TV repeats, the stresses and loneliness of a Christmas Day without the family can easily be alleviated, whether guests choose to stay in an upmarket hotel, or a simple chalet lodge.
And afterwards, the excesses of the day can be worked off as some providers of Christmas Day breaks can offer use of their leisure facilities, such as swimming pools, saunas and gymnasiums. So there's no need to feel guilty afterwards over any over-indulgence on the trifle!
