Demand for holidays in Yorkshire and a buoyant market for holiday parks continues with our specialist holiday and caravan park team successfully negotiating the sale of Angrove Country Park near Stokesley and The Flask Holiday Park near Whitby.

Angrove Country Park, a high quality holiday lodge park offering both private lodge ownership and holiday rental, is the perfect business to profit from the current and future demands of the UK holiday market. Situated in a beautiful rural setting, surrounded by farmland and woodland the park boasts impressive views of Roseberry Topping and has permission to accommodate up to 79 holiday lodges. The property and business was sold, following a confidential targeted marketing campaign, to the Leisure Resorts Group, to become the fifth park in their portfolio of high quality lodge parks across the north of England. Angrove has been developed to an exceptionally high standard by the previous owners and offers tremendous scope for further development both within the existing planning permissions and utilising the substantial land that extends in excess of 70 acres.

Flask Holiday Park was offered to the open market with a Guide Price of £1.5M with the level of interest quickly lead to a closing date for offers.  Situated in an enviable position with views across the moors to Robins Hoods Bay and being in the heart of the North Yorkshire Moors National Park the Flask Holiday Park is developed with 52 static holiday caravans and also provides scope for further development.  In a superb location the park is situated adjacent to the Flask Inn, a popular public house on A171 coast road between Whitby and Scarborough.  The park was acquired by Meridian Parks, a family owned group that already operate 11 parks across Yorkshire, the North East and the Scottish Borders and will provide a superb fit within their group.

Adam Burkinshaw, head of Sanderson Weatherall Holiday & Caravan Park Team commented “The sales demonstrate the continued and growing attraction of Yorkshire as a destination for holidays in the UK with demand for parks as strong as ever.  We are delighted to have concluded both sales in excess of the respective guide prices, utilising our expertise and knowledge of the market to target active buyers and generate competitive interest which is the key to maximising value and success”
