For years, the holiday conversation has centred around where we go. This summer, however, it seems more people are thinking about how they want to spend their time once they get there. Research suggests domestic holidays remain firmly on the agenda for British travellers in 2026, while travel trends point towards a growing appetite for more meaningful, experience-led escapes. Industry reports from Virtuoso, Audley Travel and British Airways Holidays all highlight a shift towards holidays that combine relaxation, wellness, culture and memorable experiences, with travellers increasingly seeking destinations that allow them to shape their stay around their own interests rather than follow a fixed itinerary. It’s a trend we’re seeing here with guests booking a stay at Goodwood that goes beyond the ordinary.
