A brother and sister are turning up the sibling rivalry as they aim to give caravan owners the best pitches in the whole of Yorkshire.

Both Rebecca Palmer-Bunting and her brother Nick Palmer made the shortlist for the annual White Rose Awards, a scheme aimed at celebrating the best accommodation and attractions in the county.

And, while both just missed out on the top spot, just being nominated is testament to their attention to detail and love of fine caravan accommodation, something that was highlighted by the fact Rebecca was also in the running for the prize for Outstanding Customer Service.

Welcoming the news, father Ian, who himself owns three caravan parks in Yorkshire, told the Yorkshire Post: “To have our efforts recognised by the industry as well as the guests is great.”

Rebecca runs the Robin Hood Caravan Park, close to the historic city of York, while Nick runs Jasmine Park, close to the popular seaside town of Scarborough.
