There were holidays in the Middle Ages. They were mostly religious feasts, such as Christmas. Technically, every Sunday is a feast day and a holiday.
People did not go on vacation, but the function of a vacation was fulfilled to a large degree by going on pilgrimage. A lot of people went on these, and there were shrines all over Europe that were destinations for pilgrimage. So people of poor means could leave home for a week or even months, with the blessings of the Church.
