New caravans plans in Berwick could boost local economy

Thursday, 04, Mar 2010 10:45

Approximately £2 million could be brought to the Berwick area of Scotland each year as over 200 additional caravans are planned for a caravan park in the location.

The Berwick Advertiser reports that Seafield Caravan Park at Seahouses is making the expansion plans which will see 170 caravan put up for sale and the remainder available to let for holidaymakers.

Owners Strathearn Leisure are hoping to complete the development in three phases, which would result in equal numbers of caravans erected in each segment.

According to the publication, Sandra Thompson, regional director of Signet Planning, which has prepared the plans for the owners, believes the development will have numerous benefits for the region.

Alongside resulting in additional jobs for local people, it is predicted that indirect expenditure could lead to an extra £1.83 million coming into the local economy every 12 months.

There are numerous caravan parks for both couples and families to enjoy across Scotland, offering the chance to take part in indoor leisure facilities, alongside being in locations that offer romantic walks around the coastline.
