David Bellamy award winning Park

When it comes to holidays in Britain, holiday parks for caravans, chalets and camping are the favorite choice for holidaymakers. The aim of this award is to keep it that way by making them environmentally better" explains David Bellamy.

 

"Britain's parks are bursting with bio-diversity! " says Professor Bellamy. 'They are the nation's favourite get-away-from-it-all locations, and also a major point of contact between people and the countryside. They are therefore very important centres of education, and a wonderful place to go and experience wrap-around nature. That's why these awards play an important role in helping parks to keep the green flag flying!' he added.

 

Professor David Bellamy has named Berrynarbor Park in Berrynarbor, near Ilfracombe as one of the UK's most environmentally friendly holiday parks - and awarded it a special accolade for protecting and enhancing the natural world.

Set in 27 acres of Devonshire countryside, Berrynarbor Park provides a peaceful tranquil setting for residential and holiday homes.

Since taking over the park six years ago, owners Paul and Teresa Crockett have continued to maintain and develop the natural environment of the park, installing bird and bat boxes and leaving grassland areas of the park uncut. This helping to create a natural haven for squirrels, badgers and other wildlife, as well as a host of wild plants and flowers.

Paul and Teresa's efforts have now won them a David Bellamy Conservation Award, described by Professor Bellamy as the 'Green Olympics' for holiday parks.

David Bellamy said he was "absolutely amazed" when he discovered just how much was being done by holiday parks to protect and enhance the environment.

"Many parks like this have created wildlife wonderlands, and I think it's time they were given deserved recognition for their big commitment," said Professor Bellamy.

Berrynarbor Park's award was made following a detailed audit of the park's environmental policies, supported by comments made by holidaymakers.

Paul and Teresa have also built a wildlife pond at the park entramce, and have installed a recycling facility.
