‘Luxury Holiday Lodges’ to be showcased at open weekend at Pisces Park in Welney
A holiday park that has seen an upsurge in people keen to buy a holiday lodge is holding an open day to showcase the site.
Pisces Country Park in Welney has seen more people buying a holiday lodge after staying at the site and its adjoining venue Acorn Holiday Park.
The holiday parks have four abundantly stocked fishing lakes and on August 31 and September 1, both are opening their doors to visitors interested in a look at the holiday homes on sale.
The parks - situated on a 20-acre site featuring beautifully landscaped lawns, shrubs, and wooded areas - are the ideal location for those who enjoy peace and tranquillity. It has become the destination of choice for people from all over the UK since holidays at home have enjoyed a surge in popularity.
Nick Church, of Pisces Country Park, said: “Summer is the ideal time for people to look into a holiday home purchase but the glorious countryside is there to enjoy all year. It’s the ideal base for touring the beauty spots of East Anglia and for anglers the fishing here can be enjoyed during each and every season.
“Lodges cost less than you would expect to purchase but the benefit they bring families is priceless. A place to escape to whenever you need some family time. We are expecting visitors will be impressed with what’s on offer as these holiday homes offer outstanding value for money – and that’s key to any purchase.
“People do still want to enjoy life so many are joining the growing number of holiday home owners in the UK. While the cost of home ownership is high on the coast just a short drive away prices are all the more affordable.”
Established in the 1940s as a tench fishery, Pisces Country Park has three lakes heavily stocked with carp, pike, tench, roach, and bream. It has won the David Bellamy Conservation Gold Awards for countryside achievement and been endorsed by some of the country’s most famous anglers - including Bob Nudd, who is now angling ambassador for the park.
The parks were acquired by its current owners in 2019 and 2020 since then significant investment has been made in the facilities there. The holiday home accommodation on offer is being updated with many new units being added to replace older stock; at the same time as improvements are being made to the parks’ infrastructures and specialist conservation work is being continued to enhance the grounds and lakes.
Speaking about the recent success with increased demand for short breaks and the purchase of holiday lodges at the two sites, Paul Stanton said: “People are enjoying countryside breaks again - more than ever before – and rentals can be the route to purchasing a holiday home. Some buyers are looking to invest some money maybe from the sale of an asset, lottery win or inheritance. Some people have even purchased a holiday home to be near family members who might not have the space to accommodate family members for visits. It’s all about time with family and friends.
“Fishing is one of the UK’s largest participation sports and it is great for mindfulness and health. Getting out into nature is clearly what people want, to live a more fulfilled life, so we are seeing more visitors than usual and more people wanting to invest in a holiday home so that they have somewhere to go at the weekends.”
Luxury furnished holiday lodges are available to rent at Acorn Holiday Park and to buy at Pisces Country Park. Prices at Acorn Holiday Park start from £75 per night including fishing and from £34,995 for a fully furnished luxury holiday home. All accommodation is situated beside a lake.
