Haven publicizes deal for 4 new Wetherspoons pubs at vacation parks after serving nearly a 700,000 pints at current websites

Haven has announced it will build four new Wetherspoons pubs at its holiday parks as part of a huge £9million investment.

The holiday park business will open the new sites in spring next year, bringing the total number of boozers across the UK to nine.

They will be located at Haven’s Cala Gran in Blackpool, Lakeland in Cumbria, Riviere Sands in Cornwall and Hopton in Norfolk.

The development is part of a £9million investment and will seek to capitalise on what is expected to be a busy year for Haven, as it prepares to welcome up to four million guests in 2026. 

Haven first announced its partnership with Wetherspoon in 2024 and opened its first pub at Haven’s Primrose Valley Holiday Park, Filey, in March that year.

Four more pubs have since been built at Haggerston Castle near Berwick, Cleethorpes Beach in Lincolnshire, Devon Cliffs near Exmouth and at the Kent Coast holiday park near Rochester.

Since launching the partnership, Wetherspoon’s pubs across Haven have served 907,000 main meals, 288,000 breakfasts and pulled 692,201 pints.

Simon Palethorpe, CEO, Haven, said: ‘Haven is all about giving our customers more of what they love – and our partnership with J D Wetherspoon does just that. 

‘All our parks give our guests and owners access to brands which they love, be that Burger King, Slim Chickens, Chopstix, Millies Cookies, Papa Johns, Costa or J D Wetherspoon.

‘With these four new J D Wetherspoon; the opening of our new £10 million water park at Kent Coast; and the renovation of the Marton Mere Show Bar, as well as many other investments in our parks, there are even more reasons to holiday with Haven in 2026.’

Michael Barron, Commercial Director, J D Wetherspoon, added: ‘Our partnership with Haven continues to go from strength to strength. 

‘We are delighted that four new J D Wetherspoon pubs will open at Haven parks in 2026.

‘We are confident that they will prove popular with Haven’s holidaymakers and owners.
