A much-loved Suffolk holiday park, famous for its golf course and retail village, has plunged into administration, sending shockwaves through the UK holiday scene.
Stonham Barns Hits Financial Trouble
Stonham Barns Holiday Park, nestled in the tranquil Suffolk countryside, has filed for administration as of February 16. The site, a favourite getaway since it opened in 1987, was taken over by its current management in 2001.
This sprawling resort isn’t your typical park. It boasts a nine-hole golf course, a bustling retail village, a museum, and even fishing lakes, making it a top pick for families and holidaymakers alike.
Administrators Pledge Normal Service Amid Sale Talks
FRP Advisory, appointed administrators of the park, confirmed in a statement: “The appointment follows a period of financial pressure on the business.”
Andy Edge, Parkdean’s chief marketing officer, said: “Families of four can save over £300 by going all-inclusive, making this an extremely cost-effective option for families seeking action-packed breaks in some of the UK’s most scenic and sought-after locations.”
