was a very important year
for Park Leisure, not only was it the year the company launched and bought its very first holiday park (Heather View) but it was also the year it got its very first Park Leisure owners. Nearly 16 years ago Adrian Guy and his wife Lesley were both looking for somewhere to escape the stresses and strains of everyday life, the couple had looked all over. Destinations ranged from
first owners at Heather View
Yorkshire, the Lake District, even Spain and France. When one day the couple heard about Heather View through a trading contractor, and decided to pay a visit to the area staying in Wolsingham and visiting Heather View the very next day. “We both loved the park just as much and knew instantly that this was the one for us”. After all these years Adrian and Lesley still look forward to coming up each weekend and have seen the park improve with age.

one day Steve discovered that Mr Brown makes beautiful rocking horses, Steve was so impressed that he asked Mr Brown to make him one in time for Christmas to give it to his two beautiful granddaughters Kaycie and Eden Rose. Mr Brown, originally

A big thank you to Bill Woodhouse from Heather View who sent us this wonderful poem about The Crazy Bear:
The Crazy Bear was where I was sent To stop a rumble was my intent, The Menu it was nicely written Just one look and I was Smitten, Salads and grills and pizzas and fish I cannot decide what’s my favourite dish, To sample them all the Diet must go Cos I really am fond of a crispy potato, Burgers and curry and fiery inferno The choice is so good “I” cannot say No, Out for a meal the Question is WHERE? The kids all shout up THE CRAZY BEAR!
