Coastal English holiday park reveals new £10million makeover
A HOLIDAY park right on the coast has undergone a huge makeover – and has a ‘three-resorts-for-one’ offer.
Woolacombe Bay Holiday Parks has revealed a £10million makeover of one of its North Devon holiday parks.
Since 2024, Twitchen House Holiday Park has been working on new facilities that are now open.
The new features include a 28C outdoor pool, stretching 18 metres long with a splashpad and a multi-lane waterslide.
The pool itself even has a lifting floor, which allows it to become a “water playground for aqua aerobics and games”.
At the splashpad, kids can enjoy running through spraying hoops and water jets.

There’s an outdoor water flume too, and the new three-lane waterslide is ideal for races.
There’s also a new Wavesurfer surfing simulator, which guests can test out their surfing skills on thanks to a constant wave flow.
The park already has an indoor pool, where families can enjoy two waterslides, as well as a toddler pool.
The all-day cafe and bar has been extended too and now has a new outdoor terrace and dog-friendly dining areas.
Woolacombe Bay Holiday Parks has three holiday parks in Woolacombe, North Devon – Woolacombe Bay, Easewell Farm and Twitchen House.
And last year, new Emerald caravans were introduced at the front rows of Woolacombe Bay and Twitchen House sites.
Inside, the caravans feature full-sized baths, TVs in every bedroom and barbecues overlooking the sea on the outdoor decks.
For this year, 131 new caravans have already arrived.
At Woolacombe Bay, every caravan in the Surf Village has been replaced too.
There are also five new caravans with private, outdoor hot tubs.
The four-bedroom sea view Farmhouse on the Easewell Farm site has also had a major revamp to make it the ideal accommodation for multi-generational families.
Inside, it has new furniture throughout as well as a patio that overlooks the sea and boasts a hot tub.
For those visiting any of the three holiday parks, there are a number of different activities they can book including Segway Safaris, watersports on the lake and even bushcraft classes.
For adults wanting a little R&R, there is also a spa to indulge in.
Kevin Darvill, Sales & Marketing Director for Woolacombe Bay Holiday Parks said: “Demand for UK coastal holidays remains strong, especially in the West Country, and our continued investment reflects both our confidence in the market and our commitment to giving guests the very best holiday experience.
“Seeing bookings already significantly ahead for 2026 shows that customers are really responding to the improvements we’re making across our holiday parks.”
To make things even better, there is currently an offer on where visitors can access the three parks for the price of one.
When staying at Woolacombe Bay Holiday Parks, visitors will be able to explore all three parks – Woolacombe Bay, Twitchen House and Easewell Farm.
This means three times the attractions and activities to explore.
At Woolacombe Bay Holiday Park, for example, there is a splashpad with geysers, water jets and a spraying tree.
As well as a slide from the indoor pool to the outdoor pool and a twisting waterslide, there is also a three-lane waterslide ideal for racing family members.
The Easewell Farm site just has an indoor swimming pool, which is calmer and great for learning swimmers.
Prices for the holiday parks vary depending on which site you choose, but typically cost from £50 per night.
