Britain is booking Britain. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ“ˆ

The staycation numbers this summer are hard to ignore:

β˜€οΈ 61% of Brits say they're MORE likely to holiday at home this year β€” 25+ million going domestic
🌊 Booking.com search surges: Morecambe +106%, Carnforth +86%, Exmouth +76%
πŸ’· Average holiday budget: Β£1,526 β€” and a third plan to spend MORE than usual
πŸ€– Vrbo said this week it's using AI on booking data to localise summer campaigns

Notice where the growth is: not London. Not the capitals. The coast and the countryside.

The British seaside is quietly becoming this summer's best growth market.

Where are your bookings surging?
