PAMIS Breaks
Accessible Holidays and Respite Breaks
PAMIS Breaks
We know how important a break away with the family can be and how limited the options are for families who need adapted accommodation. In 2018 we launched PAMIS Breaks after being kindly given a caravan at Haggerston Castle Park in Berwickshire, and the use of a beautiful Coach House in Aberfeldy. We have learnt a lot during this time and have listened closely to your feedback.
We offer 2, 3 and 6 night breaks at these holiday venues.
Why do we not offer a 7 night break? We want your holiday to be as relaxed as possible and to avoid the usual rush to get out of accommodation by 10am (or even earlier in some cases!) we cater for a later departure time of midday. This means that we cannot get the accommodation cleaned and ready for the next visitor the same day and so we allow an overnight period to get prepared. We hope you agree that this is a preferable option for making your holiday truly relaxing and as stress free as possible.
A returnable £60 breakage deposit will be added to the cost of your booking to help ensure that our holiday facilities are looked after and treated with respect by all visitors. We want everything to be of a high quality and in working order for your arrival and we believe this standard holiday requirement will help us ensure this is the case.
In order to cover the costs of running both these holiday venues we need to increase the occupancy levels by making the caravan and house available for others to rent. These prices are capped at the below rates for our families but the same weeks will be available on open holiday rental at the standard market rate. It is important that you choose your holiday dates as soon as possible so as to avoid disappointment.
We are very fortunate to have two options for family holidays and short breaks. We work hard to offer our PAMIS families a preferential rate. We appreciate flexibility is important and we will try to accommodate all your needs to ensure you have an memorable stay.

Our caravan is called ‘Callum’s Caravan’ in memory of a wonderful young man who spent many fantastic holidays at this park with his family. It is located a short walk from the facilities and in a quiet and wooded area of the site close to fields and the open countryside.
Our caravan is fully accessible with a wet room, more space and wide access doors. Enormous PVC decking also provides a large combined living space for you and your family.
We know from your feedback that you love this park and so do we! In 2018 Haven chose Haggerston as one of four parks to receive huge investment and many new facilities were introduced, including a new on site Changing Places toilet, a multi-level indoor soft play area, additional entertainment area, Oodles family amusement centre, creative studio and Tower Bar plus restaurants such as Cooks Fish and Chips, Papa John’s Pizza, Burger King and Chopstix!
The caravan sleeps 6 and has a large wheelchair ramp and decking, wide access doors and wet room. As well as the bedrooms there is also a double sofa bed in the living room. The main bedroom has an electric Hi/Lo bed and another single bed. The remaining bedroom is a twin. This accommodation comes with WIFI plus the use of 6 Friends and Family passes which will give you access into the Owners only areas of the park but also gives you:
- 15% off purchase (at participating outlets on park)
- 50% off activities
- 50% off launderette tokens
- access into all park venues
The Coach House, Aberfeldy
The Coach House is a 4 bedroom holiday cottage in rural Perthshire which can sleep 8 people and is open for booking 365 days a year!
In 2020 we invested heavily in making improvements to The Coach House to ensure it is fully accessible for all. These improvements included the installation of a new tracking system, a new fully accessible wet room and the widening of all doors within the ground floor of the property.
The Coach House is accessible by a ramp. There is one single room downstairs with an electric Hi/Lo bed, hoist and the newly installed tracking system and wet room, two double rooms upstairs (one en-suite) and a large family room consisting of twin beds and a queen sized bed at the rear of the house with a Juliet balcony enjoying views to the surrounding hills. The ground floor benefits from wide access doors throughout. The kitchen/dining room, living room and conservatory areas are all large, roomy and easily accommodate a wheelchair.
Our property is a spacious and welcoming home on a quiet residential street in the small town of Aberfeldy. Local amenities such as cafes, shops and restaurants are a short walk away. This is a popular holiday destination with a wealth of visitor attractions and beautiful natural surroundings for a perfect family holiday.
Our Coach House will be available all year.

As part of the agreement to use the Coach House for accessible holidays we can also rent this out to non-registered PAMIS carers who need accessible holiday accommodation for a family member with a disability.
