Holiday park company Holgates has purchased a new caravan site in the Silverdale Arnside area of outstanding natural beauty in Lancashire.
According to the Lakeland Echo, the firm will add the Silver Ridge Caravan Park to its portfolio, which includes sites in the Lake District and the Yorkshire Dales.
It plans to develop and extend the existing accommodation at the park, which covers 40 acres of private woodland.
The site’s facilities will also be refurbished, bringing it into line with other Holgates properties.
Last year the company acquired the Bay View Holiday Park near Morecambe in Lancashire and has since spent £5 million on redevelopment.
Michael Holgate, managing director of the group, said he was “delighted” to add Silver Ridge to the Holgates brand.
“Holgates is becoming well known for offering outstanding accommodation facilities in beautiful locations and Silver Ridge complements our portfolio perfectly,” he remarked.
Meanwhile, the company has announced that it will be offering new 2011 seasonal pitches for tents and touring caravans at its Hollins Farm and Bay View sites.
