Heartbreak for Holidaymakers as Beloved Brean Theme Park Shuts Down! The iconic family-run park in Somerset has plunged into liquidation and closed its gates for good, leaving fans and families shattered.
Liquidators Take Control
On 28 January 2026, Hazlewoods LLP were appointed liquidators, with Nicholas Stafford spearheading the closure from Cheltenham. The company decided to wind up voluntarily, according to The Gazette.
All trading has stopped immediately, except for essential actions to complete the shutdown.
End of an Era for a Somerset Legend
Since the 1940s, Brean Theme Park has been a beloved fixture on the Somerset coast. It began as a humble camping and leisure spot and expanded in the 1970s, growing into a seasonal attraction with over 40 rides and amusements running from March to October.
The park became synonymous with family fun and was famously linked to TV favourites Sooty and Sweep. Its closure signals the loss of a treasured local institution.
Other Facilities to Keep the Fun Going
There’s some silver lining for visitors. Unity Holidays, the landowner, confirmed the caravan park will remain open.
Additionally, neighbouring attractions like Brean Play, Brean Splash, and Brean Gym are set to open as usual for the 2026 season.
