The future of caravan site operator Green Parcs looks uncertain after the company’s directors called in administrators.

According to accountancyage.com, the firm, which owns three sites near Inverness in Scotland, is to continue to trade during the summer.

It will look to sell off its assets to help address its financial problems and Deloitte administrators Dominic Wong, John Reid and Matt Cowlishaw will be responsible for the emergency action.

“These are well established and popular sites which were caught out by the current economic environment,” explained Mr Cowlishaw.

He added that the parks will continue to welcome caravanners while they look for a buyer who can take the business forward.

Mr Cowlishaw was quick to add that any new buyer would have to demonstrate that their ownership would benefit existing residents at the sites and have the ability to attract new customers.

Meanwhile, the Hackney Gazette has reported that a special Irish traveller barrel-topped caravan is on display in Stoke Newington.
