Caravan insurance policyholders may be first among the visitors to the refurbished Hafan Y Mor caravan site in north Wales when it reopens.

The site in Pwllheli has received permission from Gwynedd council to start work on a £15 million redevelopment that will involve demolishing 450 chalets built during the 1970s.

Over the course of the next ten years, caravan insurance policyholders may be able to stay at one of the 209 bases for luxury static caravans and take advantage of the nine-hole golf course.

The site's general manager Andrew Baker, who is also director of the Tourism Partnership North Wales, told the BBC: "[This] underlines the continuing and indeed growing confidence we have in Hafan Y Mor, and North Wales in general, as a top tourist destination where visitors can enjoy some of the most spectacular scenery in Britain."

Local residents may also benefit from the extra jobs created by the redevelopment, which are thought to include 12 permanent roles and 30 seasonal positions.

Mr Baker added that the development programme will transform the site into a five-star holiday destination for caravan insurance policyholders and other tourists.

The news comes as the Caravan Club rolls out plans for a 96-pitch site in Arleigh, Essex.
