Staycation fans can now enjoy an exceptionally cheap pint at a holiday park.
Haven Holidays is launching its first on-site JD Wetherspoon pub. The cheap boozer is swinging open its doors at its Primrose Valley, Yorkshire location at the end of March.
The holiday park has told punters to expect "all the value and range you’ve come to of the iconic British pub company, combined with Haven’s focus on family fun." Haven has released images of what the Spoons will look like when it's ready to go.
The new venue will have seating for more than 250 guests and will sit alongside other outlets at Haven including Slim Chickens, Papa Johns and Burger King also available on park. Haven, which runs 38 parks in the UK and was acquired by Blackstone in 2021, is the first holiday provider to strike an “exclusive agreement” with Wetherspoon.

A spokesperson from Wetherspoon told the BBC it is looking to open more pubs in other Haven locations, but did not say which ones. There are currently 830 Spoons in the UK.
