EXPANSION IS SET TO CREATE SCORES OF JOBS
MORE than 120 jobs are set to be created at a popular East Yorkshire holiday park which is poised to undergo a £20m transformation with funfair attractions, new pools, cabanas and popup entertainment.
Unity Holidays snapped up Skirlington Coast Yorkshire last year, immediately setting about investing in its dining and leisure facilities, including the launch of a new pavilion theatre, pub and restaurant.
Last month we revealed how its new owners are now set to make the most significant investment in the park’s history, through the creation of a multi-million-pound entertainment area at the park, which is based between Hornsea and Bridlington.
Now the company’s CEO, Dermot King, has revealed all the details on the exciting plans set to come at the popular park.
Proposals and designs have been submitted to council planners by Legacy Leisure Group, the parent firm of Unity Holidays.
Subject to planning approvals, they stand to create more than 120 permanent jobs as well as 200 seasonal roles, while also creating an aspirational destination.
