UCPA Launches Wellness Holidays. Keeping The Bank Balance Healthy As Well As The Body And Mind

UCPA, the non-profit organisation that promotes ‘sport for all’ across the French Alps and in French coastal resorts on the Mediterranean and Atlantic, has launched a number of new ‘health and wellness’ holidays for summer 2019.

The holidays, spread across four centres – both mountains and coast, have introduced a new standard in wellness style breaks, by opening up the category to a much wider audience than it might have previously attracted.

As many previous customers of UCPA have come to expect, the all-inclusive weeks offer genuine value for money, with prices starting at £431 per person, for 6 nights full-board accommodation, including instruction and guiding.

Managing Director of Action Outdoors, the UK arm of the UCPA, David Robertson, said: “We believe this is the best value ‘wellness’ product on the market. For years, we’ve been hearing about how wealthy people enjoy these kind of holidays in luxury retreats - but now we have made it far more accessible for people who want a genuine experience, staying in the UCPA centres with their high standards, fantastic food, in-house instructors, all in world class destinations at a sensible cost”.
