WHILE some celebs love jetting off on luxury holidays, others prefer spending their down time closer to home.
There are lots of holiday parks around the UK that the likes of Stacey Solomon, Harry Maguire and Nigel Mansell have taken a liking to – and most of them are very affordable.

Haven Kent Coast Holiday Park
Formerly Allhallows Leisure Park, Haven Kent Coast Holiday Park has everything need to entertain the kids on holiday – and celebrities think so too.
In April last year, Stacey Solomon, her husband Joe Swash and children headed to Haven holiday park in Kent.
Stacey posted lots of pictures of the family on social media, resulting in fans questioning her holiday choice.
Stacey responded: “There must be some kind of stigma around holiday parks because so many of you messaged saying you couldn’t believe that’s where we’d chosen to go!”
We can’t fault Stacey’s choice in holiday destination, just an hour away from London, it even has a new play park.
The new play park is called Adventure Village, there’s a free fall platform, climbing wall and a rope obstacle course.
Kids can also try their hand at archery and other games.
There’s even a dog agility course for anyone who brought their furry friends.
While Stacey was away, she posted snaps of her family testing out the pool, taking part in craft classes and enjoying the view of the Thames Estuary.
Prices start at £49 for four nights – which for a family of four works out to be £3pp.
Haven Presthaven Sands, Wales
Stacey Solomon isn’t the only one to enjoy a Haven break, Manchester United footballer Harry Maguire has also been spotted at the holiday park.
He opted for the Presthaven Sands site in Wales and in August last year, surprised some holidaygoers in the bingo hall.
The footballer went on a break with his brother, 27-year-old Laurence, and wife, Fern. Guests commented that everyone was “starstruck” by his presence.
Presthaven has everything from multiple swimming pools, go-karting, to crazy golf.
On-site are five restaurants including Burger King, Chopstix and Papa Johns.
Thanks to its proximity to the coast, you can also take a stroll down to the beach.
Other nearby sights to the park include Llandudno, Caernarfon Castle, Great Orme Mines, Conwy Castle and Rhaeadr Dyserth Waterfall.
With “Saver” caravans, prices start from £49 for 4-night stays.
Butlin’s Skegness Resort
No one will forget the moment that Coleen Rooney announced on I’m a Celebrity that she loves a holiday to Butlin’s.
The star, who lives in a £20million mansion, confessed that she still loves a break to the seaside holiday park in Lincolnshire with her family.
Butlin’s says it has non-stop action, and it does.
Every break includes unlimited rides in their fairground, plus the new SKYPARK has lots of climbing towers and slides – including one that’s 14-metres high.
At Splash Waterworld there are pools to explore as well as rides, and flumes, as well as the smaller Rockpool Cove for little ones.

Butlin’s Skegness offers breaks starting from £41, with deposits from £5 per person.
The Warren Resort in Abersoch, Gwynedd
Butlin’s isn’t the only place Coleen loves to holiday, she’s previously rented a chalet in what’s known as “millionaire’s caravan park.”
