Break
Break has been providing holidays and short breaks for people with disabilities for over 40 years – ensuring that guests enjoy a holiday to remember and their carers can have a well deserved rest.
Rainbow Holiday Centre
Rainbow is a large three storey Edwardian house situated in the picturesque seaside town of Sheringham on the North Norfolk coast.
At Rainbow we provide full inclusive, supported holidays for individuals with high, medium and low care needs and associated challenging behaviours.These holidays provide a wonderful memorable time for our guests but also give families and carers a much needed break.
24 hour care is provided by a qualified staff team offering an individualised package of care alongside freshly prepared meals by our in-house chef.
We have a programme of activities and outings for guests - from visiting farm parks and museums, to shopping and bowling. We also have a range of special 'themed' weeks available for guests to enjoy throughout the year.
Location
Sheringham appeals to a wide variety of age groups, which is why many choose to make return visits to this picturesque seaside market town.
Originally a small North Norfolk fishing village the arrival of the railways in 1887 turned Sheringham into a popular destination for visitors from far and wide. Over the years it has expanded into a thriving town with many diverse shops, places to eat, and places to visit.Rainbow holiday centre is just a ten minute walk from the beach and 25 miles from Norwich, a beautiful historic city at the heart of the county. In fact Norfolk boasts an array of attractions which guests get the chance to visit during their stay.
Accommodation
The house itself has 10 comfortable single rooms, each with washing facilities and TV/DVD players, with access to freeview, for guests to enjoy time by themselves. There is also a large television lounge with comfortable seating, an activities room with television, touch screen computers, laptops, a music centre, a sensory room and soft play room.
