UK Mums name Bluestone Park as a leading Family Shortbreak Vanue

More than 10,000 Mums across Britain have voted in the Mumii Family Awards to name the the most family friendly products, services and venues – and Wales’ own Bluestone National Park Resort was cited by many as one of the Best UK Shortbreaks for Families, winning a Silver award in the much prized category.

The awards assessed everything from pushchairs to baby food in their quest to name Britain’s best.

Mummi editor Jo Studholme said:

“The Mumii Family Awards encompass everything you need to know about being a Family. We took the best of the best and parents spent a month deliberating and voting for their favourite brands and products.

“With over 10,000 votes cast across numerous categories, we are now very pleased to be able to announce the results.”

Bluestone Head of Sales and Marketing, Yvonne Buckingham, said the West Wales resort was ‘delighted’ with the award, adding:

“Since Bluestone opened almost ten years ago, we have strived to be the most loved and unique family holiday destination, where everything we do is driven by the desire to make our guests feel valued and special. Not only do we aim to make Bluestone a haven to relax, and unwind, we’ve also created a host of activities to draw the family together, stimulating the senses and reconnecting them, both to each other and to the stunning natural environment which surrounds us here in Britain’s only coastal National Park.

“This award is particularly special because it is voted for by the public, and, more specifically, by mums and families, the very people we cater for and who know us best.”
