Cool employee benefits at Parkdean
1. Parkdean discount on holidays and more!
Just because you work here doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy what’s on offer, just like our guests do.
We love it when the Parkdean team get the chance to enjoy the resorts, make use of the self-catering accommodation, and have fun in the parks!
So when you’re an employee, you can grab 50% off the cost of your Parkdean holiday. Not bad, eh?
2. Family discounts
Did you know that Parkdean has 66 holiday park locations across the country?
When you’re an employee at any one of them, you can bag 30% off any park-related spends across the country. That covers drinks food, activities, and loads more.
Not only that, but your friends and family qualify for a discount, too — because we recognise that time with your tribe plays a big part in your overall happiness at work.
You can score 25% discounts on up to 5 friends and family holiday bookings per year.

Whatever part of your life you might be struggling with, the Employee Assistance Programme (EAP) offers free, confidential support for all our employees.
