Serenity Parks, a resident-focused residential park home operator, is on the hunt for new parks after it secured a five-year, €500m investment from a US-based private equity firm.
It has opened a dedicated acquisition platform to accelerate its nationwide expansion with the company vowing it is “well-equipped to pursue opportunities swiftly and decisively”.
The Doncaster based firm says it is building on its long history as a residential park home operator as it expands into holiday parks. Serenity Parks has previously developed parks in Kent, Cornwall, Cheshire and Devon, including the high-end residential development at Kingsdown Meadow in Kent.
“This funding has allowed us to complete the purchase of our first park in December, with a further four park purchases due to complete by the end of spring 2026, heralding the start of an exciting new chapter for us,” said Gary Burns of Serenity Parks.
“These parks will be developed to provide high-quality residential accommodation and facilities as we strive to continue to elevate park home ownership.”
Serenity completed on a new development site in Norfolk (East of England) in Q4 2025, strengthening its presence in key regions. Four further assets are due to complete in Q1 2026, marking significant momentum in the company’s growth strategy and its ongoing commitment to delivering exceptional residential communities. It is anticipated that homes at the first confirmed acquisition will be available for sale from May 2026.
Over the next five years, Serenity Parks aims to acquire both fully operational parks and greenfield development sites across the UK, targeting multi-site portfolios or individual caravan parks licensed for permanent, year-round occupation.
This investment by a leading global real estate investor, with experience across a broad range of markets, including residential park homes in the US and Australia, demonstrates strong confidence in Serenity Parks’ planned growth trajectory and long-term vision.
“We have always created high-quality developments, and this funding will allow us to carry these standards forward and build developments which meet the expectations of our buyers, providing features such as EV charging points, strong transport links to nearby towns, on-park sports and recreation facilities, and landscaped spaces that promote community, relaxation and health,” said Serenity Parks.
Backed by a highly engaged management team with deep expertise in park home development and operations, the company’s philosophy remains simple: put residents first.
“This means eliminating historical barriers to purchase, such as resale commission fees on new residential developments, to make ownership more accessible and rewarding for future homeowners. We create safe, supportive communities for a care-free lifestyle, whether for a single site or a larger portfolio,” a spokesperson added.
Serenity Parks remains keen to engage with existing park owners across the UK who are considering a sale, whether for retirement, succession planning, asset realisation or strategic exit. The company offers a professional and discreet acquisition process, fair valuations, rapid decision-making and a focus on positive outcomes for all stakeholders, including residents.
Park owners, operators or portfolio holders interested in exploring options are invited to contact Serenity Parks confidentially via the dedicated acquisitions page at www.serenityparks.co.uk/acquisitions or through the enquiry form on the website.
