Look around the new £2m luxury holiday park built on the site of a pub

Stoney Acres Holiday Park in Dorrington has been developed on the site of the former Bridge Inn, which closed back in 2015.

The pub did have a pitches for touring caravans, but the firm behind the project said it had seen the opportunity to expand and improve on the operation.

Walter Beaney, director with WTB Property, which has been behind the transformation, said they were delighted at the result of their investment.

The site now has 18 fully serviced pitches for touring caravans or motor homes – each with power supplies, drinking water and grey waste water drainage, a digital tv hook up, and ultra fast internet.

Included in part of the redevelopment is an amenity building, with Mr Beaney saying it had been created with aspirations to deliver five-star hotel facilities, including walk-in rain showers, underfloor heating throughout, seated vanity areas, and more.

The park also features two holiday home lodges, expected to open later next year.

Mr Beaney said the dog-friendly park was a gated adults-only community which had been created using hand-crafted, imported stone, where people could leave their property "with peace of mind".

Mr Beaney said the site was being operated by wardens, Dave and Shar Hughes, and that he hoped it would help provide a boost for the local community.

He said: "We are delighted. We have spent in the region of £2m on the whole development, it has been a substantial investment and we hope that is reflected in it being a success for the local area."

He added: "We think we have created a park at a very high standard and we do hope it brings a lot of business to the village and the area."
