Staying clean and green

Environmentally friendly holiday park

Now more than ever, we must all protect our global environment. At Hele Valley when we look around us, we see such breathtaking landscapes it’s impossible not to care.

We’re pledged to green practices and keeping our park a sanctuary for local wildlife. Our efforts haven’t gone unnoticed—we’re proud six-time winners of the David Bellamy gold conservation award.

Green Holidaying

In our reception area you’ll find an assortment of local area information, including maps, walking and cycling guides—and of course our knowledgeable staff.

We like to promote a natural way of holidaying. It’s easy to hop in a car, but more rewarding to go it on foot, or by bike. It’s great exercise and environmentally friendly.

Go for it!

The Honeybee Pledge

Honeybees need our help, so we’ve taken the British Beekeeper’s Association pledge, to provide and conserve honeybee habitats in our park. We’ve been busy planting hedgerows and flowers to attract our fuzzy little friends—we hope they approve. Alongside looking after wild bees, we keep them too, and make delicious honey, available from our reception area.

Viva la bees!
