About Us

Haven Holidays is part of Bourne Leisure Ltd who also own Warner Leisure Hotels and Butlins Resorts. The largest privately owned holiday operator in the UK, Bourne Leisure was awarded ‘Large Tour Operator of the Year’ in the British Travel Awards 2009.

The company started over 40 years ago with one Caravan Park. With a continuous investment programme, the business has grown not only in the number of Parks owned but also in the size and quality of the businesses and amenities provided for our guests and owners. Bourne Leisure live by their mission statement (see below) and in 2000 they bought the Rank Group Holidays Division which included the Haven brand.

Adding Haven Holidays to the Bourne Leisure portfolio extended the choice of top quality Parks and locations available to families. Some of the smaller Parks were sold but the larger Parks have been kept and over the last ten years have enjoyed being part of the rolling investment programme which includes providing new accommodation, landscaping, Spas, golf courses, Adventure Golf and most recently enhancing some of the leisure pools with flumes, slides and Space Bowls.

At Haven we pride ourselves on giving you the most enjoyable group holiday experience. All of our team are committed to making your stay a memorable experience and one you will want to recommend to your friends.

"Most Premier league players with a free w/end might have a choice of the villa in St Tropez , the apartment in New York or the five star hotel in Barbados But the Manchester United star instead chose Presthaven in Prestatyn! Very much in the spirit of Britain’s staycation summer the £100,000 a week defender booked his wife Rebecca Ellison and two sons in the Haven park for a credit crunch busting weekend break in late August."

Here Jon Bird is lured by Tenbys beaches ..and chocolate! It’s easy to see why people get all dewy-eyed about Tenby. Ringed by 14th Century walls. Cliff top regency houses painted in pastel shades overlook the sea on three sides, its’ difficult to imaging a prettier resort. A short walk from Tenby neatly tucked behind South Beach is Kiln Park, one of Haven’s more compact and attractive spots. The park named after a row of disused, arched quicklime kilns that line the resorts main road is dotted with mature trees. It has indoor and outdoor pools, tennis courts kids playgrounds, putting green and a large grass area for football and being Wales, rugby.
