Private equity firm completes £1.35bn Parkdean takeover

By Matthew Campelli    07 Mar 2017
Parkdean has 73 sites across the UK

Parkdean Resorts, the largest caravan holiday business in the UK, has been acquired by private equity firm Onex for £1.35bn.

The company owns 73 holiday parks across England, Scotland and Wales, which accommodate 500,000 holidays and short breaks a year.

Onex had originally agreed to buy the business in December 2016 from previous owner Epiris.

Parkdean Resorts was formed in November 2015 when Parkdean Holidays and Park Resorts merged, creating a business valued at £960m.

CBRE advised Parkdean Resorts during the transaction.

In January, the company announced that it was going to invest a record £50m on accommodation, retail and leisure facilities across its UK parks in time for the 2017 season.

Around £17m of that fund will go towards developing a new range of lodges, caravans and glamping facilities, while £5.5m will be spent on entertainment and leisure facilities.
