Alternatives to Center Parcs

Center Parcs is booked up on the dates we need. Any suggestions for nice alternatives? Needs to be within relatively easy reach of both London and Manchester. Thanks!

Haven’t been for a few years but we had some lovely breaks at Landal Darwin Forest .

Bluestone always get good reviews. It's "central" for London and Manchester but might be too far for both?
Forest Holidays at Sherwood Forest? Less facilities on site than CP but you could get a hot tub and there's biking in the forest.
Also try Hoseasons, a lot of their sites have hot tubs or pools.

Finlake Resort, but not central to either.

We have friends who always enjoy Forest Holidays.

Just returned from a midweek break with a toddler. Would really recommend if you have young children, the winter lights display was really captivating for my DS, but also seemed to have plenty of activities to keep older kids entertained. Great central location in Pembrokeshire so you can reach beautiful beaches along the entire coast.
