[Talk-GB] Chalets, resorts, holiday parks...

[Chris Hodges]

In the context of *=resort, Center Parcs do offer such a thing as day 
passes, though maybe only to people visiting residents.  They also used 
to sell day access to the spa facilities, maybe still do.  It's just a 
minor part of their business (as it is with plenty of the other examples).

Logically either resort or holiday_park would seem reasonable for the 
whole site
