​It has been announced that one of Mablethorpe’s award-winning caravan parks has been acquired by Haven.

Haven has acquired Holivans Caravan Park as part of expansion plans at its own Golden Sands Holiday Park, which will transform the park into one of the largest holiday destinations in Lincolnshire.

Holivans Caravan Park will continue to trade under the same name for the 2024 season, before work begins to incorporate it into Golden Sands Holiday Park in winter 2024.
