Holiday park finance in the Wales

The North Wales coast and the Pembrokeshire, Gower and Cardigan Bay coastlines make Wales a premier holiday-park region, combining large mass-market coastal caravan parks with scenic lodge and touring parks beside Eryri (Snowdonia) and the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park.

Wales is a country within the United Kingdom with Cardiff as its capital, two official languages, Welsh and English, and a coastline of over 2,700 kilometres. We arrange the full range of holiday park and caravan park finance across the Wales, from the acquisition mortgages that buy a static, lodge, touring or glamping park to the bridging, development and expansion finance behind new lodge pitches, glamping or site infrastructure, and the refinance and equity release that frees capital for the next deal. Park market data is published at national and regional level by Savills, the UKCCA and VisitBritain, so the figures above are attributed to their sources, while the housing-transaction figure is genuinely local Land Registry data for the catchments we track.

Wales records around 920 holiday parks and campsites (UKCCA, 2024) and runs two distinct markets: large coastal static-caravan parks on the North Wales coast, and scenic lodge, touring and glamping parks in Pembrokeshire, the Llyn and beside Eryri. Premium lodge values at Abersoch and Pembrokeshire sit alongside high-volume family parks at Towyn and Prestatyn. We arrange acquisition, refinance and development finance across the Welsh coast and national parks, and structure around the Welsh licensing and planning position a lender will want confirmed.

What drives the Wales holiday park market:

  • the North Wales coast (Towyn, Abergele, Prestatyn, Rhyl) as one of the densest caravan-park strips in the UK
  • national-park and coastal demand: Eryri (Snowdonia), the Pembrokeshire Coast, the Llyn Peninsula and the Gower
  • proximity to the North West and Midlands conurbations feeding drive-to demand

Finance

The park finance we arrange in the Wales

Holiday park & caravan park mortgages

We arrange commercial mortgages to buy static caravan parks, lodge parks, touring and camping sites and glamping ventures across the UK. As an introducer we place each case with lenders who understand park trading income rather than residential loan to value.

Park development & expansion finance

We arrange staged development finance to add new static, lodge, touring and glamping pitches, build facilities and lay infrastructure. Funding is drawn against cost and end value, then refinanced onto a park mortgage once the new income is trading.

Holiday park bridging finance

We arrange short-term bridging to buy a holiday or caravan park quickly, whether at auction, against a deadline, or before clean accounts are available. Pricing starts indicatively from around 0.75 percent per month, with a clear exit onto a park mortgage or sale.

Holiday park refinance & equity release

We arrange refinance to re-rate existing park debt and equity release to free capital against improved EBITDA. The released funds can fund expansion, further acquisitions or a partial release across a multi-park portfolio.

Multi-park portfolio finance

When you run more than one park, separate loans on separate parks rarely serve you well. We arrange a single facility across the group, secured on the portfolio, sized on aggregate trading and built to flex as you buy, sell and refinance.

Glamping & lodge development finance

Building a luxury lodge park or a glamping site is a development project before it is a trading business. We arrange staged development funding against cost and end value, with drawdowns that track construction and an exit planned from day one.

Leisure & trading-business park mortgages

A holiday park is a trading business, not a row of houses. We arrange income and EBITDA-based commercial mortgages on the park as a going concern, sized on the accounts, the licence, the tenure and the strength of the operator behind it.
