Argyll holiday parks company goes into administration

The other subsidiary companies in administration are Cove Communities Venture 2 Gwel an Mor OpCo Ltd, Cove Communities Venture 2 Solway OpCo Ltd, and Cove Communities Venture 2 Springwood OpCo Ltd.

Parent company Cove Communities Holiday Park UK Holdco Limited has also entered administration.

The Cove business is comprised of about 25 different firms. Some other arms of the business – including its largest resort, Seal Bay in West Sussex – are not affected.

The company acquired Argyll Holidays – one of the largest private employers in Argyll and Bute – at a time it was expanding across the UK.

Cove UK’s then managing director Mark Seaton previously said: “Argyll Holidays represents everything that Cove looks for: stunning properties, beautiful and unique locations, and an aspirational lifestyle offering.

“Simply put, they are the best at what they do.”

In December 2023 it made some staff at Drimsynie redundant just before Christmas, after moving to a new schedule that meant the resort was closed for winter.

Argyll Holidays was established in 1967 by the Campbell family with the development of Drimsynie Estate.

When the news of the sale was announced, director Keith Campbell said Cove was “the first company that we felt understood what we stand for and could continue what we started.”
