What London holiday clubs cost

We compared the prices providers actually published for October 2026 programmes in the Clubhome catalogue. This is not a survey or an estimate: every figure below states how many listings it is based on.

The daily rate

160 of the 1,092 programmes we list publish a daily rate (15%). Across those, the median is £45 a day, with the middle half of prices between £35 and £64. Published daily rates run from £15 to £86.

A median is more honest than an average here: a handful of specialist or residential-style programmes would pull an average upwards and describe almost no one’s actual choice.

Weekly packages are a different unit

96 programmes publish a weekly price instead, with a median of £220. We do not divide a weekly package by five to invent a day rate: many providers price a week at a discount, and some include trips or extended hours that a single day does not.

Hours change the comparison

105 listings mention extended or wraparound provision in their hours or price notes. A 9am–3pm day and an 8am–6pm day are not the same product even when the headline price is close, so compare the collection time you actually need before comparing cost.

Dates matter as much as price

299 listings have confirmed dates for the period we list, and 141 have both a confirmed date answer and a published daily rate. That is the set where a price comparison also answers “can my child go on the days I need?”.

What this page cannot tell you

• Booking fees, card fees or deposits a provider adds at checkout.
• Sibling, early-booking or multi-week discounts, which are often conditional.
• Whether a place is actually available — a published price is not a place.
• Funded or free provision: the catalogue currently identifies 32 free or HAF-funded listing, which we know undercounts London’s funded schemes. Improving that is a priority, and we will not pad the number to look comprehensive.
• Prices change. Each price carries the date it was checked, and the provider’s own page is the final word.

How to compare two clubs properly

1. Compare the same unit: day with day, week with week.
2. Compare the hours you need, including collection time and late fees.
3. Check whether the dates are confirmed or only a school-holiday window.
4. Add the cost of extended hours, trips and food if they are not included.
5. Confirm eligibility before paying, especially for age, school year and funded places.

Method and sources

Figures are calculated from the 1,092 programmes in the Clubhome catalogue on 21 October 2026. Daily and weekly rates come only from prices the provider published in that unit; package and per-session prices are excluded from the daily comparison. Price check dates in this sample run from 1 September 2026 to 9 November 2026. The live catalogue changes as providers publish.
