Sixty seven per cent (67%) of Britons are taking matters into their own hands and shunning holidaying abroad and supporting British tourism this Easter.
Due to the uncertainly around Brexit, the number of Britons holidaying at home this Easter has literally doubled with 67% taking an Eastercation break compared to just 34% in 2018.
These findings have been revealed in a new holiday report issue by Travelodge which operates 563 hotels across the UK which surveyed 1,500 British adults on their Easter holiday plans.
