Fairways Holiday Park and The Blue Lias Bar and Restaurant Welcome New Managers

November 15, 2023

Paul and Gillian join our team with a wealth of practical experience and endless enthusiasm!

We hope that visitors will join us in welcoming Paul and Gillian to Fairways Holiday Park and The Blue Lias Bar and Restaurant.


Under our previous management team, Fairways quickly flourished into a popular 12-month holiday park, where seasonal pitches and holiday homes never stay empty for long! And, after a prolonged period of closure, our onsite bar and clubhouse re-opened as The Blue Lias Bar and Restaurant in the spring of 2022.


Now, Paul and Gillian are keen to maximise all avenues of potential on the site and create a warm, welcoming, unforgettable atmosphere for all residents and visitors alike.


‘These are extremely exciting times for Fairways International Holiday Park.  We are both dedicated to ensuring all aspects of the Park are the best they can be and, along with our fantastic team aim to provide consistency and dependability to allow our guests unforgettable moments for years to come’.


The Blue Lias is now open for drinks and entertainment. Evening meals will be available from 6th December including a traditional Sunday Carvery.


We are confident that by unifying the day-to-day running of Fairways and The Blue Lias under one management team, we will be able to satisfy the expectations of our holiday visitors, whilst welcoming the wider community into our venue.

Providing a clean and attractive destination for our visitors to enjoy not only benefits our business, it also positively impacts our local community and the wider environment. Which is why we have committed to join Surfers Against Sewage Million Mile Clean . Now the biggest initiative of its kind in the UK, the Million Mile Clean is an annual event, mobilising 1,000,000 million volunteers to clean over 10,000,000 miles of UK landscape between 2021 - 2030. It’s reported that more than 2 million pieces of litter are dropped in the UK every day at a cost of £1 billion to the taxpayer. So, we are asking visitors and the local community to get pro-active and join us at Riverside Holiday Village near Weston-super-Mare on Thursday 24th April from 11.00am - 1.00pm for an organised 2 mile ‘litter pick’ along Bridgwater Road (Hospital Roundabout - Hobbs Boat Inn). ‘Clean Kits’ will be provided; we’re just asking for 2 hours of your time to help clean up this public space.
