About Mill Rythe Holiday Village
- Mill Rythe Holiday Village on Hayling Island is owned by UK holiday parks operator Away Resorts, which launched in 2008, when it acquired its first park, Whitecliff Bay on the Isle of Wight. The operator then went on to buy Tattershall Lakes Country Park in Lincolnshire before acquiring Mill Rythe in 2010. Away Resorts bought its fourth park, Barmouth Bay in north Wales earlier this year.
- Mill Rythe Holiday Village is one of the original 1940s Sunshine Holiday Parks and has welcomed generations of the same families since the ‘40s because of its high-quality, yet affordable, half-board holiday offering.
- Since Away Resorts acquired the park in 2010, it has invested more than £1 million in refurbishing all of the rooms, renovating the park’s public spaces and employing a high-quality entertainment team which boasts West End credentials. The investment has paid off when the park was awarded Tripadvisor’s Certificate of Excellence for consistently scoring four stars or above in its reviews.
- The team at the park have embraced Mill Rythe’s holiday camp heritage while keeping its holiday experiences to its guests firmly grounded in 21st-century entertainment and culture.
- The Mill Rythe team pride themselves on going that extra mile for their guests, and the comments on Tripadvisor – “A good budget holiday but with five-start treatment”* – are a key indicator of how hard the staff work. *Review posted on May 31, 2013
