☀️ Beverley Holidays Adds Solar Panels to Boost Sustainability in Devon

At Beverley Holidays, we’re proud to announce a new milestone in our environmental journey — the installation of 58 solar panels on the roof of our Starlight Bar, right here in beautiful South Devon. This eco-friendly upgrade helps power our holiday park with clean, renewable energy and supports our commitment to sustainable tourism in the UK.

Clean Energy at the Heart of the Holiday Park

Installed in an east-west array, the new solar panels are set to generate an estimated 26,000 kWh of electricity over the next 12 months. That’s enough to:

• Charge around 2.2 million smartphones

• Power three average UK homes for a year

• Reduce our carbon footprint by 5.54 tonnes of CO₂ annually

To give a visual comparison, this CO₂ saving is equivalent to planting 255 trees. It’s a small forest’s worth of positive impact, all quietly happening on our roof.

🌱 Leading the Way in Eco-Friendly Holidays

These panels add to the existing solar technology we installed earlier this year on our Signature Eco Caravan. Together, they demonstrate our continued investment in renewable energy solutions and green practices across the park.

Whether you’re relaxing in the Starlight Bar or staying in our eco-friendly accommodation, you’re helping support a greener future by choosing to holiday with us.

Why East-West Solar Panels?

Our east-west panel layout captures sunlight throughout the day — from sunrise to sunset. This setup balances energy production, especially useful in the UK’s changeable weather. The electricity produced powers our facilities directly, reducing the need for fossil-fuelled energy from the grid.

It’s a simple idea with a big impact, making Beverley Holidays more energy-efficient without compromising the comfort and enjoyment our guests expect.

What It Means for Your Stay

We want your holiday to be not only relaxing and fun, but also part of something more thoughtful. Here’s how these changes benefit you:

• 🌍 Environmentally responsible holidays: You’re supporting a business working towards a cleaner future.

• 💡 On-site energy efficiency: More of the power we use is now locally generated.

• 🏡 Comfort meets sustainability: No compromise on your experience — just lower impact behind the scenes.

• 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Family-friendly with a purpose: Great for those teaching children about the importance of looking after the planet.

🎖️ Devon Tourism Awards Finalists

We’re also thrilled to share that we’ve been named finalists in the Devon Tourism Awards for the Regenerative Tourism Award. This recognises businesses who are actively working to restore and regenerate the environment, not just minimise harm.

From installing solar panels and reducing CO₂ emissions, to providing accessible accommodation and supporting local ecosystems, we’re proud to be recognised for our approach to responsible tourism in Devon.

Our Ongoing Sustainability Commitment

The new solar installation is just one part of our wider environmental plan. We’re taking steps in every area of our park — from waste reduction and recycling to water conservation and green cleaning practices.

Here’s what we’re focusing on:

• Reducing energy use and switching to renewables

• Offering eco-friendly UK holiday options

• Raising awareness among guests and team members

• Protecting our beautiful Devon coast and countryside
