Three Lincolnshire caravan parks have been rescued from administration by a single buyer.

According to the Peterborough Evening Telegraph, Lifestyle Living Group has paid a total of £ million for Metheringham’s White Horse Caravan Park and Chapel St Leonards’ Little Haven Caravan Park and The Willows Caravan Park.

It sees the premium holiday park owner acquire a total of 126 caravan pitches and just over eight acres of land.

The firm will keep the sites as caravan parks but upgrade the facilities to make them more attractive to guests.

It plans to invest £10 million in the sites to bring them up to the same standards as its other parks.

Owner and chairman Tony Barney told the newspaper that the Lincolnshire coast is an attractive option for tourists thanks to its “thousands of acres of splendid countryside”.

“We are seeking to expand our park portfolio in Lincolnshire further and we welcome direct approaches from park owners looking to sell or even those looking for a joint venture partner,” he said.
