Shorefield Holidays

Yes. Shorefield Holidays runs its own military discount, giving serving personnel, veterans, reservists and the wider forces community 15% off any holiday across its Dorset, Hampshire and New Forest parks, including peak dates, when a valid Defence Discount or Blue Light card is shown on arrival.

The latest Shorefield Holidays offers and deals are also listed on this page and updated regularly, so you can compare the discounted price against any seasonal sale before you pick up the phone or book online. Sometimes a sale price beats the 15% saving, so it pays to check both.

Does Shorefield Holidays offer a military discount?

Shorefield Holidays confirms the scheme directly on its own website, so this is not a third-party rumour or an old voucher code doing the rounds.
The 15% off holidays is exclusively for emergency services, armed forces, teacher and blue light staff.

Shorefield Holidays says it is proud to support emergency services, armed forces and teachers for all their hard work and dedication.

The saving is generous in scope.
It is valid for any getaway, even during peak dates, from camping and touring pitches to luxury hot tub retreats.
That makes it one of the more flexible forces discounts going, since many holiday providers ring-fence their reduced rates to quiet midweek stays.

There are conditions.
The discount cannot be used with any other offer and applies to new bookings only.

A valid ID, Defence Discount, Blue Light or Teacher Union card must be shown on arrival at the park.
Defence Discount Service and Blue Light Card are both accepted as proof, which means the scheme is open to anyone already holding one of those memberships rather than requiring a separate Shorefield-only sign-up.

How to claim the Shorefield Holidays military discount

1. Check the live Shorefield Holidays offers listed on this page first, so you know what the park price looks like before any discount is applied.
2. Decide whether to book online or by phone.
   You will need to call the Reservations Team directly and mention the key services discount when booking, or if you already know your exclusive Blue Light discount code, use it at checkout to receive the saving of 15%.
3. Have your Defence Discount Service number or Blue Light Card ready when you book, as the team will ask for proof of eligibility.
4. Pack the physical card.
   Valid ID, Defence Discount, Blue Light or Teacher Union card must be shown on arrival
   , so a photo on your phone may not be accepted.
5. Remember the discount cannot be stacked with another promotion, so compare it against any seasonal sale on this page before confirming.

Who is eligible

Shorefield Holidays describes its discount as open to armed forces staff alongside emergency services and teachers, verified through a Defence Discount Service number or Blue Light Card. In practice that means serving Regulars, Reservists and most veterans who hold one of those cards can use it. Shorefield's own page does not break eligibility down further by rank, cadet status or spouse, so if you are a cadet force adult volunteer, MOD civil servant or forces spouse, your best bet is to check whether your Defence Discount Service or Blue Light Card membership covers your role before you call to book.

Other ways to save at Shorefield Holidays

Start with the Shorefield Holidays offers listed on this page, since these are checked and updated regularly and sit alongside the military discount rather than replacing it. Beyond the forces saving, Shorefield runs seasonal sales on selected breaks throughout the year, and signing up to its newsletter can bring early access to deals on specific parks and dates. Returning guests also have access to loyalty-style booking schemes, so it is worth asking the Reservations Team what else applies to your dates when you call.

If you are travelling with pets, that is worth factoring into the total cost too.
Shorefield Holidays says pets are part of the family, and it offers pet-friendly accommodation across its parks so four-legged companions can enjoy the adventure too.
Facilities such as swimming pools, bars and entertainment are often included at no extra cost when you book directly, which can make a bigger difference to the overall bill than a percentage discount alone.
