Anthony Smith, chief executive at Shoe Zone, said: “Whilst demand is particularly high for locations such as Cornwall and Devon, we wanted to conduct some research into other locations around the country which would be perfect for a family break

“We hope our guide provides some useful inspiration for families that may not have planned a break yet and looking to book a last-minute getaway!”
