How we made it easier.... and cheaper!
We LOVE a trip to Center Parcs.
It’s one of those holidays that just ticks every box for us — fresh air, bikes, the pool, cosy evenings altogether… it’s such an easy win whether you’re going as a family or in a big group, and a perfect location for multi-generational trips too!
But if there’s one thing that can make or break the trip… it’s the food.
Because while eating out every night sounds nice in theory, it quickly adds up — and cooking full meals from scratch every evening isn’t exactly the relaxing break you had in mind either.
Over on my YouTube Channel I’ve just posted a video sharing how we managed food on our most recent trip! Because food at Center Parcs doesn’t have to be expensive or time-consuming.
With a bit of planning, you can keep things really simple — and actually enjoy your evenings instead of spending them cooking. So if you want to see how we…
- prepped everything ahead of time
- packed and transported food
- and made it all work in the lodge
Then you can watch it here….
We kept everything really simple and focused on meals we knew everyone would eat, that we could easily cook or reheat in the villa with little effort from us.
Here’s what we prepped ahead:
- Pulled pork (for an easy burger night)
- Lasagne (freezer-friendly and feeds a crowd)
- Veg-packed tomato pasta sauce (quick and budget-friendly)
- Fluffy pancakes (for easy breakfasts)
Alongside this, we picked up fresh bits like milk, snacks and lunch items on the way.
If you want to make things even easier, I’ve put together a full Center Parcs food packing list with everything we took (including all the little extras people forget).
And don’t forget to check out my Amazon favourites ahead of your next Center Parcs trip.
