Who-Needs-Ibiza--The-Great-British-Holiday_final_5771859_5771850

HUNDREDS more tourists could visit Woolacombe this summer thanks to a new BBC Three documentary, two of the shows stars have claimed.

Debuting last week, Who Needs Ibiza? The Great British Holiday follows the team at Europa Park as they attempt to offer the ultimate party experience on a budget.

The two-part documentary, which was filmed last summer, also tracks the alcohol-fuelled antics of a number of the camps visitors looking for a Balearic holiday closer to home.

Despite the park receiving mixed reviews from the tourists in last Wednesdays episode, staff members and show protagonists Joey Jobling and Vicki Toms said they were delighted by their appearance.

I think it went really well, Vicki said. The campsite looked great and I think it showed Woolacombe in a good light.

Joey added: We knew they could have tried to edit it in a much more negative manner. Because we havent had the money to spend on keeping the park flawless, but overall I think it showed us off nicely.

Although they focus quite a bit on mine and Vickis love-hate relationship, it also shows that as a team we do pull together and run the campsite well.

As we are a young team, we know our target audience and how to make the campsite run so they can get what they want.

Europa, which first opened its doors in 2003, caters specifically for people aged between 18 and 30, and has quickly gained popularity for its stag and hen nights.
