Parkdean Resorts has announced the closure of Nodes Point, Landguard, Lower Hyde and Thorness Bay holiday parks to all holiday makers until 1st May.
All facilities and all touring/camping provisions have been cancelled with immediate effect.
Access to parks will be denied to third parties and controlled by security teams.
Parkdean Resorts will be offering holiday makers who had booked to stay at its parks during this time a full refund, or they have the option to roll their booking with a credit voucher worth 120% of the original booking.
Steve Richards, Chief Executive Officer, said:
“Parkdean Resorts has 67 parks across the UK and our company plays a big role in local communities, whether it be through investment, tourism or employment. As such, we have been in conversation with community leaders, customers and our people, and have decided to delay the launch of the season.
“We are very sorry to the many holiday makers who were hoping to spend their Easter break with us, but I hope they understand why.
“We will continually and closely review the Government’s guidance and hope to welcome people on park from 1 May.

“As Parkdean Resorts was gearing up for the Easter holidays, we have a significant amount of perishable food on park which will now be donated to local community food banks.”
Camping and Caravan club sent me an email saying all their sites will been closed immediately. There are a few on the island.
If the hospital struggles at any point these would make good isolation hospitals seeing as they closed all our other hospitals over the years!!!
We cancelled ours on thursday we were jot told of refund of 12o% we were told we could have a credit note but had to use it in 2020
Steve Richards. Man up and pay back everyone’s money in full, you won’t be allowed to re-open your parks and caravan sites at the beginning of May because the lockdown won’t be relaxed. So be a director and pay us all back our money in full not vouchers.
We have booked a holiday with you 25th May to 29th May at Looe bay caravan site but have now cancelled because of the Coronavirus.
