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.”
