Plans to create a five-star caravan park near Ludlow in Shropshire have been approved by the local council, it has been reported.
The new 20-acre site will contain pitches for 135 touring caravans between the River Teme and the A49, Shropshire Live reports.
Developers Morris Leisure hope to start work as soon as possible on the park, which has an estimated value of £3 million, with a view to completion in time for next summer’s caravan rush.
Edward Goddard, managing director of the leisure company, said: “We are delighted that council has approved our plans for this five-star park, which we believe will generate around £1 million a year for Ludlow and enhance local tourism.”
Morris Leisure already owns four caravan parks in Shropshire and Snowdonia – Stanmore Hall Touring Park in Bridgnorth, Riverside Touring Park in Betws-y-Coed, Oxon Hall Touring and Holiday Home Park in Shrewsbury and Bow House Country Park in Bishops Castle.
