Pontins is a British company operating holiday parks in the United Kingdom, founded in 1946 by Fred Pontin. It was acquired by Britannia Hotels in 2011. Pontins specialises in offering half-board and self-catering holidays featuring entertainment at resorts, or "holiday parks", as they have branded them. Accommodation is usually in the form of chalets, which Pontins calls "apartments". In 2022, it was rated the worst British holiday park chain out of a field of 19 in a survey by consumer association Which? At its peak, Pontins operated over thirty sites although most have since closed. In 2024, three remained: Brean Sands (the last surviving traditional Pontins camp) and two adults-only sites at Sand Bay and Pakefield. However, as of August 2026, only Sand Bay was open to the public, with Brean Sands and Pakefield both in temporary use as workers' accommodation.
