Center Parcs UK and Ireland[2][3] (formerly Center Parcs UK) is a short-break holiday company that operates six holiday villages in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland, with each covering about 400 acres (1.6 km2) of woodland. The company's first village opened at Sherwood Forest, Nottinghamshire, in 1987 and its sixth, at Longford Forest, Ireland, opened in 2019.

A similar enterprise operates in continental Europe, also under the name Center Parcs Europe; however, the two companies have been separately owned since 2001.[1]
