We are an East Devon Award Winning Holiday Park
We have some fantastic news to share with you—Andrewshayes Holiday Park has been awarded Silver at the Devon Tourism Awards in the Holiday Park of the Year category!
Up against some of Devon’s biggest holiday parks, taking second place is an incredible achievement for our family-run park. The awards are independently judged and consider everything from online reviews and our website to recent upgrades and long-term plans. It’s a wonderful reminder that all the improvements we make—big and small—are appreciated by our guests.
We Welcome the Fourth Generation
This year has been special for us in other ways too and was a factor for us winning the award.
In June, the Lawrence family celebrated the wedding of Josh and Grace, who were married in a beautiful ceremony at Dalwood village church.
We’re even more delighted that Grace has joined the business, bringing new ideas, enthusiasm and plenty of energy to help guide Andrewshayes into its next chapter.
The Devon Tourism Awards are one of the most respected quality marks in the South West, celebrating businesses that deliver outstanding guest experiences, innovation, and high standards across the county.
Independently judged and aligned with the national Visit England Awards, they give you confidence that an award‑winning business has been rigorously assessed for excellence, customer service, sustainability, and overall experience.
East Devon has a number of award winners that you can visit including:
The Donkey Sanctuary, Sidmouth —Café/ Tearoom (Gold) and Large Visitor Attraction of the Year (Silver).
Karting at Raceworld, Woodbury –Business Events Venue (Gold) and Active & Learning (Silver)
Stuart Line Cruises, Exmouth —Large Visitor Attraction of the Year (Bronze)
Salutation Inn – Restaurant and Casual Dinning (Gold)
Celebrating 90 years in Business
And with that in mind, we’re already looking ahead to a very big milestone. In 2026, Andrewshayes will celebrate 90 years since the park officially gained its first Public Health Licence in 1936—making us one of the oldest holiday parks in the country. Nearly nine decades later, we’re still proudly welcoming guests to our peaceful East Devon location.
Thank you to everyone who continues to support us. We can’t wait to celebrate more exciting moments with you over the coming years.
