Yorkshire Moors' development sees success in the wake of the 'staycation boom'

The Water Gardens, the stunning new development at the award-winning Wayside Holiday Park in the heart of the North Yorkshire Moors, is nearing completion. Four of the 13 new pitches for this “game-changing” development have already been snapped up, with strong interest in the remaining nine.

Ryedale District Council approved plans for Wayside to create 13 new pitches for luxury caravans and lodges in the centre of the park earlier this year. The £200,000 state-of-the-art development has meant the end of seasonal touring caravans on site.

Owner Mark Goodson explained this was a “transformational move”, taking Wayside up-market and breathing new and exciting life into the popular holiday park, creating a quality environment in its heart.

“This confidence stemmed from the continuing staycation boom and the tremendous success of our up-market Lakes development at Wayside, where we have sold every single one of our 37 lodges.”

Work will be completed on the Water Gardens within the next couple of months and the development will be ready to occupy for the park’s new 2023 season in March.

Mark is looking forward to an exciting, enjoyable and productive 2023, following a challenging two years, as the global pandemic has disrupted the park’s supply chain and made it difficult to plan ahead with any certainty.

Despite these challenges, Wayside, which is located on a picturesque site at the village of Wrelton, between Kirkbymoorside and Pickering, has managed to flourish, thanks to the staycation boom.
