Builders have begun work at the Lochside Caravan Park in Forfar, Scotland, after The Caravan Club decided to bring forward planned upgrades to the site by three years.
Now, the £1.25 million investment programme is set to take place this winter in a bid to minimise disruption to caravans by carrying out the work in the off-season, the Forfar Dispatch reported.
While minor improvements to the park were made last year, The Caravan Club decided to bring forward the refurbishment plans as its bids to bring Lochside up to meet its high standards.
Work is taking place to significantly improve the park’s pitches and services while the reception and amenities area, which is housed in a single building, will undergo major renovation.
The Caravan Club expects to reach the 25,000 visitors per year milestone for 2011 at the site which is leased from Angus Council.
It is estimated that these visitors provide a £2.5 million boost per year to the local economy, the local newspaper added.
The Lochside Caravan Park will re-open to caravanners on April 6th next year.
