Parkdean to invest huge sum following successful season
Holiday park operator Parkdean has announced a record cash injection of £13.2 million into its twenty-four company’s parks across the UK for 2015, it has been announced.
Half of the investment will be spent on accommodation throughout Parkdean’s sites scattered throughout Scotland, Wales, Cornwall, Devon, Norfolk, Dorset and Hampshire.
Other improvements planned by the company, whose parks offer touring and camping facilities as well as holiday homes, include updating entertainment facilities, providing more activities for children and an upgrade of Wi-Fi facilities currently in place.
Parkdean’s chief executive John Waterworth said: “We had a very successful 2014 and this significant re-investment shows our confidence in our customer growth in 2015 and beyond.
“We are committed to providing the best holiday park accommodation in the UK market.
“Refurbishments mean we can keep holidaymakers comfortable in a home-from-home environment plus we have noted a growing market for luxury lodge holidays and sales across the UK – the British staycation is a trend here to stay, whatever your budget.”
