High Farm Country Farm gets the go-ahead for more holiday homes at their park at Routh, nr Beverley
A holiday park near Beverley has received approval from East Riding County Council for a major extension.
High Farm Country Park at Routh can now build a further 125 timber lodge holiday homes to help it meet unprecedented demand.
Park owner, Pat Northgraves, described the announcement as great news. “There’s a real sense of momentum here and we didn’t want to lose any of it. There’s a changing clientele out there that wants more luxurious holiday homes, a relaxing pace of life and tranquil surroundings. We’re happy to oblige”.
Work has already begun on landscaping the area earmarked for the new lodges in a way that fits in with the park’s ethos of creating a peaceful and natural environment.
The park was recently awarded the David Bellamy Award for Conservation and holds a five star tourist award for the quality of its farmhouse cottages.
Mr Northgraves said “The idea at High Farm is for visitors to have as relaxing and enjoyable time as possible, so we’ve focused on the whole experience. We’re positioning the timber lodges within spacious plots around one of our lakes, overlooking miles of open countryside”.
The planning approval coincides with the company’s launch of the “Lifestyle Lodge” - the region’s first locally-built designer timber building.
The lodges are made by Beverley-based Coastline Leisure, Cayline Cabinets of Hornsea, and Beverley Pine, of Hull Road, Woodmansey.
Mr Northgraves said the new timber lodges would bring “something different” to the park.
He said “They are built with imagination and care by local craftsmen to create the perfect living space”.
