Holiday Home Owners Share Their Holgates Parks Experience

Share

This spring, we decided to get an insider perspective of life at Holgates by asking some of our holiday home owners to share their Holgates Holiday Parks experience and answer some of our case study questions. 

Our holiday homes in Cumbria, Lancashire and The Ribble Valley offer countless benefits and are located in some of the UK’s most glorious nature spots. Discover nine countryside and coastal ownership parks open all year round for holiday use and spend quality time with your family and friends.  

From our bustling flagship Silverdale Park with leisure facilities including a swimming complex, gym, bar, restaurant and more, to our quieter parks such as Netherbeck and Far Arnside, you’ll find the perfect holiday home for you.

Discover what Holiday Home Owners Paul & Lynn Armstrong had to share on their experience of owning a holiday home at our Silverdale Park.
