A static caravan rental website based in Huddersfield has been acquired by Sykes Holiday Cottages. The deal allows private equity-backed Sykes to diversify its range of rental properties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

UKCaravans4hire was established more than ten years ago and connects holiday makers to more than 6,000 holiday homes located across the UK.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following the acquisition, the business will continue to be run independently by its existing leadership teams but will sit under a newly formed parent company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gareth Irving, chief executive and founder of UKcaravans4hire, said: “This deal represents a new chapter for our business and I know with Sykes\u2019 expertise and support we’ll be able to build on the huge success we\u2019ve already had over the past two decades.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Looking ahead, we’re ideally placed to reap the rewards of growing demand for affordable staycations, working with Sykes to grow our business and promote our holiday homes to a wider audience.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The deal follows hot on the heels of Sykes\u2019 acquisition of Forest Holidays, owner and operator of environmentally sensitive cabins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The combined group of businesses under Sykes\u2019 leadership, whose own platform provides access to more than 22,500 holiday homes, are estimated to take more than 2.65 million customers on holiday in 2022. The group employs in excess of 1,700 people and is on track to achieve more than \u00a3170m of revenue in 2022<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Graham Donoghue, chief executive of Sykes, said: “As the UK’s leading provider of static caravan rentals, UKcaravans4hire is the perfect business to have by our side as we enter into this new market, offering UK holidaymakers an unmatched choice of affordable and high-quality accommodation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
