Law firm supports multi-million pound sale of popular holiday park

AN ACCLAIMED law practice supported the multi-million pound sale of a popular North Wales holiday park.

Mackenzie Jones Solicitors - based in St Asaph, Chester, and Menai Bridge - legally represented the Livingston family in selling Morfa Lodge Holiday Park in Dinas Dinlle, near Caernarfon.

The 27-acre site was purchased by Colwyn Bay’s Thornley Leisure Parks in a deal brokered by specialist caravan park sales agents, Fox Leisure.

Mackenzie Jones Director Andrew Foley Jones said it was a privilege for the business to play its part in securing the sale of one of North Wales’s premier destinations.

“Morfa Lodge is a much-loved site and has been in the Livingston family for generations, so it was a very important transaction,” he added.

“As a legal practice with a growing reputation in the hospitality and holiday sectors we are being called upon more and more to represent some of the leading operators UK-wide, and that was certainly the case here.

“We wish the new owners the very best of luck, it’s an incredible park in a beautiful part of the country and I’m sure it will go from strength to strength.”

Morfa Lodge is licenced for 188 static caravans and 55 touring caravans and features a high-quality sales and reception building, leisure facilities including two swimming pools, a play area and clubhouse, and potential to expand subject to planning.

Tim Hughes, Managing Director of Fox Leisure, said: “Having established the Chester office of Fox Leisure just over 10 years ago to focus on North Wales and north of England caravan park sales and valuations, the fruits of our labour are certainly beginning to materialise.

“We are now recognised as one of the leading chartered surveying practices in the country for the sale of premium assets such as Morfa Lodge.

“This was certainly one of the most prestigious parks I have had the privilege of selling and everyone involved in the transaction was a pleasure to deal with.”

Andy Livingston, former co-owner of Morfa Lodge, added: “From start to finish, Andrew and his staff have dealt with the sale in a true professional manner, working long hours to complete within the timescales set. Along with Tim it has been a pleasure to deal with them.”
