Park Holidays 2027 Leisure Upgrades at Stowford and Glendale

Park Holidays is pushing ahead with multi-million-pound leisure upgrades for summer 2027, with major schemes at Stowford Farm Meadows in Devon and Glendale in Cumbria. Both parks already offer static holiday homes, so the spend is directly relevant to owners and guests who use those sites rather than a touring-only story.

The group's 2027 investments page says it is continuing to invest millions across its parks, with new swimming pools, upgraded leisure facilities, enhanced dining and entertainment spaces on the way. For anyone who owns a static caravan on the Park Holidays estate, park-level investment is one of the clearer signals of how a site is being positioned for the next few seasons.

Stowford Farm Meadows: a new leisure complex

According to the Stowford Farm Meadows park page, Park Holidays is building a new leisure complex for summer 2027. Improvements listed include a new bar and restaurant, an entertainment venue and arcade, plus a new reception area and sales office. The park says its existing Stable Bar & Restaurant will remain open while the new complex is built, and it describes the project as a multi-million-pound leisure complex.

Stowford sits in hundreds of acres of North Devon countryside near Combe Martin, within easy reach of Ilfracombe and Woolacombe. The park page lists caravans and lodges among the holiday options, alongside touring, tents, dog-friendly cottages and camping pods. Existing facilities already include a heated indoor swimming pool, family activities and woodland walks.

Park Holidays' wider about pages describe Stowford as its largest holiday park in Devon and highlight the new complex as bringing family entertainment, a new arcade, restaurant and bar together in one place.

Glendale: pool, baby pool, gym and shop

At Glendale Holiday Park near Wigton in Cumbria, the operator says a new leisure complex is coming for summer 2027, featuring a swimming pool, dedicated baby pool, modern gym, on-park shop and reception. The park overlooks the Solway Firth and is marketed as a base for the Lake District coast and countryside.

The Glendale page describes peaceful caravans overlooking the lake, year-round entertainment and on-park activities from mini golf to a sports court. Food and drink already include a restaurant and bar, with the new shop due in 2027.

Park Holidays' company pages likewise frame Glendale's scheme as a brand-new leisure hub with a swimming pool, splash zone and gym on the edge of the Lake District.

After the Aermont ownership change

These 2027 works follow the completed sale of Park Holidays' UK business to an Aermont Capital affiliate in September 2026, which we covered in our earlier piece on the Park Holidays sale to Aermont. Public comments around that deal framed new ownership as support for the group's next growth phase. Site-level leisure spend of this kind is one of the more visible ways that investment can show up for guests and owners.

It does not, by itself, rewrite pitch agreements or fee schedules. Owners should still read their own park correspondence for anything that affects licences, sales rules or charges.

What it means for Park Holidays owners

Fresh leisure hubs can make a park more attractive to holidaymakers and to people considering buying or keeping a holiday home. They can also change how busy shared spaces feel once they open. If you own at Stowford, Glendale or another Park Holidays site and are weighing up whether to stay or sell, our guide to selling a static caravan at Park Holidays UK and Away Resorts sets out how sales on those parks usually work, and our Park Holidays park page covers buying from owners across the group.
