A confidential route to selling

Sell the site, property and operating business together

Selling a campsite or holiday park can be more complicated than selling ordinary commercial property. The opportunity may include valuable land, planning permissions, holiday accommodation, customer bookings, licences, equipment, owner accommodation and an established trading business.

We Buy Land & Sites considers the entire opportunity. This means the land and buildings can be assessed alongside the operation, existing income, infrastructure and possible future use.

You do not need to advertise the business publicly before making an enquiry. Initial discussions can remain confidential and without obligation.

What matters

The complete park and business position

Our initial assessment may consider the current operation as well as the underlying property and development potential.

Location and visitor demand Tourism demand, nearby attractions, access and the surrounding area can influence the opportunity.
Site area and layout Acreage, pitch layout, roads, service areas, unused land and boundaries all form part of the assessment.
Planning permissions and licences Existing permissions, site licences, occupancy restrictions and planning conditions can affect current and future use.
Trading performance Turnover, occupancy, bookings, pitch fees, seasonality and operating costs may be relevant where the business is trading.
Buildings and infrastructure Utilities, drainage, roads, facilities, accommodation and the condition of site buildings are considered.
Expansion and development potential Unused land, existing permissions and opportunities to add pitches, lodges or facilities may influence value.
Private and discreet enquiries

You may not be ready to advertise the park publicly

Owners are often concerned about staff, guests, holiday-home owners, suppliers and the local community learning about a possible sale before a decision has been made.

An initial discussion can be handled confidentially. You can provide enough information for the opportunity to be understood without immediately placing it on the open market.

Making an enquiry does not commit you to selling or require you to disclose sensitive financial information at the first stage.

Different sale situations

The business does not need to be perfect

Strongly performing parks are welcome, but we also consider properties requiring investment, restructuring, redevelopment or a change of use.

Established Trading Park A profitable park with regular customers, strong bookings and an established operational history.
Retirement Sale Owners wishing to retire after building and operating the business over many years.
Family or Partnership Change A sale resulting from changing family circumstances, partnership arrangements or succession issues.
Closed or Dormant Site A former campsite or holiday park that is no longer trading but retains land, buildings or planning value.
Investment Required Parks needing upgraded infrastructure, facilities, accommodation or substantial operational investment.
Partially Developed Park Sites where planning permission or initial development exists but the complete scheme has not been delivered.
Seasonal or Underperforming Business Sites with low occupancy, limited marketing, short seasons or operational issues may still be considered.
Property-Led Opportunity Parks where the main value lies in the land, buildings, planning permissions or alternative future use.

Frequently asked questions

Selling a campsite or holiday park

Common questions from owners considering the sale of a park, leisure property or holiday-accommodation business.

Does the site need to be trading?

No. Trading, seasonal, dormant, closed and partially developed sites can all be considered.

Can the business be included?

Yes. Where appropriate, the existing operation, bookings, goodwill, equipment and business assets may be considered with the property.

Can you consider a small campsite?

Yes. Smaller owner-operated campsites and glamping sites can be considered alongside larger caravan and holiday parks.

Can owner accommodation be included?

Yes. Houses, cottages, flats and other residential accommodation can form part of the wider sale.

What if the park requires investment?

Sites requiring refurbishment, infrastructure work or operational improvement may still be suitable for assessment.

Can a sale remain confidential?

Yes. Initial discussions can remain private, particularly where staff, guests or holiday-home owners are unaware of a possible sale.

Do I need full accounts before enquiring?

No. Basic turnover or trading information can be useful, but complete accounts are not necessary for the first conversation.

Can you consider land for a future holiday park?

Potentially. Land with planning permission, previous leisure use or credible future tourism potential may be considered.
