A FAMILY-run leisure group now has five parks across North Wales after acquiring a site near Pwllheli.

Pario Holiday Parks acquired Crugan Holiday Park, in Llanbedrog, on August 12, strengthening its presence on the Llŷn Peninsula.

Crugan has joined the group's growing North Wales portfolio alongside Marine Holiday Park in Rhyl, Tan Rallt Holiday Park in Abergele, Bryn Defaid Holiday Park in Colwyn Bay and nearby Gimblet Rock Holiday Park in Pwllheli.

Located just moments from the beach and less than five miles from Abersoch, Crugan Holiday Park is home to about 100 privately owned holiday homes and has long been regarded as one of the Llŷn Peninsula's most desirable holiday home parks.

Unlike Marine, Tan Rallt or Gimblet Rock Holiday Parks, which welcome holidaymakers throughout the season as well as holiday home owners, Crugan is exclusively for holiday home owners.

It offers a peaceful retreat where owners can enjoy the coastline, countryside and everything the Llŷn Peninsula has to offer.

Crugan features a woodland play area for families, while its greatest attraction is its tranquil setting, surrounded by countryside and within easy reach of Llanbedrog Beach.

The acquisition underlines Pario's continued confidence in North Wales' thriving tourism industry and its long-term commitment to investing in high-quality holiday parks across the region.

Crugan will continue to operate as an exclusive holiday home ownership park, with Pario committed to preserving its relaxed atmosphere while investing thoughtfully in its future for both existing and new owners.

Despite its continued growth, Pario says remaining a family-run business is central to its success, with every park shaped by a hands-on approach and a long-term commitment to owners, guests and the communities in which it operates.

Rio Williams, Group Director of Pario Holiday Parks, explained: "We've admired Crugan for a long time. It's a beautiful park in one of the most sought-after parts of North Wales, so the opportunity to welcome it into the Pario family was one we were incredibly excited about.

"What attracted us was the opportunity to build on what makes Crugan special. Owners already love the park for its peaceful setting, fantastic location and strong sense of community, and our role is to invest thoughtfully, look after it for the long term and make sure people continue creating memories there for many years to come.”

Samantha Williams, Group Director at Pario Holiday Parks, said: "As a family-run business, we're passionate about creating places people are proud to be part of. Although we're continuing to grow, that personal approach will never change. We're looking forward to building on Crugan's fantastic reputation while respecting everything that has made it such a well-loved park."

Holiday homes at Crugan Holiday Park are available to purchase, with Pario looking forward to welcoming both existing and future owners as the park begins an exciting new chapter under family ownership.
